Re: Water cooling a 12HP air cooled motor
Why not use an air/water intercooler and fan to provide large volumes of cool air through the motor's air cooling?

If you add in a heat pump you'll pull more heat energy out of the system than with a heat exchanger alone.

Re: Preparing Machines for Moving
Professional machine movers are not cheap but know what they are doing, and are full insured.
Don't mess them about if they are professional and insured.
