Visit audible.com/jerryrig or text "jerryrig" to 500 500 to try Audible today! My Electric HMMWV cant get very far without liquid cooling keeping everything chill. Today we are going to add a cooling pump, a radiator, and a whole lot of plumbing to circulate the glycol and deionized water through our motor and Tesla battery modules.

Tip: The clear hose will turn brittle from the antifreeze pretty fast. I used two 5cm pieces of chemical resistant clear hose in a boat where i installed a diesel heater system to help me see if there was air in the system, but the hoses became discolored and hard over the weekend. Had to change them out with proper radiator hoses, like the rest of the system. Also, you should add an expansion tank on the highest point of the system. It holds air that acts as a "damper" for when the system gets too hot. The liquid expands quite a lot when heated, and will burst your pipes. Air is compressible, liquid is not! But, i also have to say that this looks absolutely beautiful, and i am extremely impressed with what you have made!

I would recommend a thermostat for the battery coolant loop to bypass the radiator, and possibly a second radiator just for the batteries. On warm or hot days it doesn't matter, but on cold days you wouldn't want effectively freezing coolant pumping through the batteries. Regulating the pump speed can only do so much. You'll end up with unbalanced battery temperatures

1. Please add a reservoir to the cooling system. Leaks will eventually occur due to thermal expansion. That is the main reason they're used in cars. 2. As another commenter said, you have an aluminium radiator and copper heatsinks. Mixing these two metals is really not ideal as it leads to galvanic corrosion. It is advised to not do so in PC watercooling as well. Please look into this. I'm really pumped to see the Project Hummer EV finally on the road! Can't wait for all the fun stuff you have planned.

Also you will get losses of liquid out of the tubes themselves over time. It's one thing that can limit the lifespan of a lot of computer water coolers (All-in-ones at least) which often can't be easily refilled. It'd take years for it to be an issue, but it;s something to bear in mind with that much tubing.

Great vid, looking forward to the next one! Just a quick note in case you see this. The plasticizers in the clear hose will likely leach out quite quickly into the propylene glycol solution and clog up any narrow pathways. You'll know this is happening when your hose becomes less flexible and will likely yellow. In water cooled PC's, this can happen within a few short weeks. I don't know of any clear flexible hoses that are free from this issue. Even in the PC cooling industry, the best of the best still have this problem, just delayed. We also use the same mix for PC cooling.

I didn’t realize there was such an efficiency difference between electric and gas engines. So, even if the electricity generated for the electric motor is created by fossil fuels, it seems like it would still be more efficient than a gas motor.
@kschleic9053 2 жыл бұрын
It absolutely is. Engineering Explained has some good videos about this... A gas turbine peaker plant, connected to an EV by miles of transmission lines and all the efficiency losses involved, AND the charging losses, AND the drivetrain efficiency, is still more efficient than gasoline explosions pushing pistons 😂

Zack again, incredible series! The best on KZfaq by far. As you said it sounds and handles like a bucket of bolts, my question is how difficult would it be to add air suspension like your Rivian? These old military shocks seem to be well past their time. But it is incredible to see it moving. Well done
@DoctorSpectres 2 жыл бұрын
I feel like Zach will eventually do some suspension work. Just seems too bumpy for a city street. At 27:28 forward Zach was getting a little bit of a rodeo treatment. BTW, this is the coolest conversion I've ever seen. Thanks Zack!

Wow! I really dig how quiet it is. After driving Hummers in the Army and how loud they are (those that have driven military HMMV’s know exactly what I’m saying) you have to yell to your passenger next to you and if you have troops in the back seat you can forget talking to them at highway speed. Of course we used headsets most of the time to communicate. But yeah they growl, groan, rattle and moan ridiculously, this thing sounds great comparatively. Nice work!

@@JerryRigEverything NO RESERVOIR? What about thermal expansion??? You could get leaks in the system without a reservoir that's one of the big reasons they're used in cars Also your radiator seems to be aluminium, but the heatsinks in your battery might be copper... which will lead to galvanic corrosion, and eventually your system will leak (hopefully not inside the battery or it will destroy it). Just make sure you're not mixing metals!!

@@slimedev4920 Going out on a limb and saying a lot more than 50k (including the hummer) but less than 75k. Batteries can be had on open market 950-1350 per module, believe he has 16? so around 15-18500 (largest cost of this conversion). The motor and remainder components easily sit at 20-25k then rest of the cost of the vehicle itself. There could be labor if your not doing this or isn't simply a bolt on, which most conversions aren't. Again depending on how you approach this could easily get you under or at 75k for this project..
