My colleague has been developing a hybrid water/forced air heat transfer system for a prototype lighting solution we are developing.
I am struggling to get my head around the calculations required to figure out exactly how many watts of energy (heat in this case) are being transferred to the coolant (water) as it passes through it's radiators.
We are driving the at 750 watts, the fixture's LEDs are ~12% efficient--- so how would we calculate exactly how much of the remaining 660 watts radiant heat is being transferred to the coolant via our cooling system?
Thanks for in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated.
