I'm currently in my final year doing a project on a particular type of nanofluid. I wanted to test the change in temperature level when using nanofluid instead of typical coolant. The problem is that a custom water cooling loop is too expensive for me especially since I only need to use it for a few days. I was wondering if i could replace the pump found in kits from like cosair etc with a normal pump and maybe even replace the radiator with a copper tube bent like a compressed spring to act like a basic radiator. Since it's an experiment, i wouldn't mind if efficiency is lowered in using a diy style kit instead of a store bought one. Any answers would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: i have a second question, is there a way to make a cheap reservoir that can be easily filled and drained. I'm a bit tensed whether i would fight the proper tubing since what if the size of the fitting were you insert the tube is different in the water block and pump. Can anyone also help me out here.
