So I am going to buy the Snow wolf 200w and allready currently own the mutation X V4.
I want to get a coil build which is going to produce awesome clouds.
I have read a lot of posts and so far I understand a few things affect the vapor:
- Surface area (thicker wire or more wires / parallel and stuff / more wraps)
- Wattage / power and lower ohm
- Heat produced (heatflux) less heat is cool vape but probably also less clouds? right?
- Heat capacity (lower is quciker is probably better)
- ofc also things like airflow wicking and stuff... but lets focus on the coil itself.
So all this stuff needs to be balanced. So with the steam engine I made a theoretical coil that is quite balanced imo. However I have no idea if its realy balanced well for clouds.
It is basically a dual - 4 strand parallel build with about 8 wraps - 26 AWG (regular A1 Kanthal)
resulting in .15 ohm. Stats:
Wire length (lr - ll) 101.6 mm
Outer diameter (⌀c+2⌀r) 3.81 mm
Neutral axis diameter 3.4 mm
Loop circumference 11.97 mm
Helix angle 7.9 °
Length of each loop 12.08 mm
Width 13.9 mm
Surface area 516.72 mm²
Resistance wire length 106.6 mm
Number of wraps 8.4
— rounded to "full wraps" 8 (0.29 Ω)
— rounded to "half wraps" 9/8 (0.3 Ω)
Resistance per coil 0.3 Ω
Heat flux @ 200W :
184 mW/mm²
Heat capacity (each coil) 179.24 mJ/K
Leg power loss 4.7 %
I need help. I realy would like to know how this coil will preform for clouds and how I could improve it.
For example.... maybe you guys think the heatflux is too low even at 200w. Or the heat capacity is too high? Surface area seems pretty big though. I do not know if you need to max out the surface area for best clouds. Please let me know how to improve this or maybe show a totally different build that provides way better clouds!
Thanks in advance!
