The reason I am inspired by the salt is due to the mythbusters beer cooling episode. It works amazingly well for cooling beer to ice cold in just mere minutes so I'd like to see what it can do in cooling a rad, the water or whatever.
Seriously if you are ever in need of an ice cold beer and all you have is piss warm beer and a few ice cubes grab a container, some salt and cover the can with just enough water, add the ice and fire in a whack of salt. Freezing cold beer in less than 5 mins. |
Two things.
1) please edit your original responses instead of stacking them when talking to different people. It makes a mess of the thread.
2) Do you have a link to that exact episode, I would like to see what exact reaction caused an endothermic response.
