This was a good video - great information. I think that this business about your cooler becoming a "bomb" is a myth. The dry ice will gas off CO2 for sure but it doesn't collect in your cooler under pressure. Even if it did, it would just pop the lid up a bit unless you have one of those coolers with the snap down clasp. Also when you mix dry ice with regular ice , the regular ice will stay frozen longer but it will eventually melt. WHen you leave the plug open on the bottom the resulting water will run out into your vehicle. This could leave your car smelling pretty bad (personal experience).

This is a good way to Crack a cooler after a few uses this way. You should get a piece of Styrofoam to put on bottom then sit dry ice on it. It will extend life of dry ice and save coolers integrity. That's if you care about your cooler and want to do this method from time to time.

it would be better if we could just buy water ice cooled to the temperature of dry ice because water has more than double the heat capacity of carbon dioxide and should therefore perform more than twice as well as dry ice if it was that cold. i imagine nobody sells super-cold ice just because it's dangerous to touch and you'd have alot of customers that don't understand water ice could be made dangerous, but it wouldn't be overly expensive and doesn't have that pressure buildup hazard since it's not expanding to a gas

Super cold water ice would help somewhat, but not as much as you might think. The reason is that water ice and dry ice get most of their cooling power from the "latent heat" of the phase transition (melting in the case of water ice and sublimation into CO2 gas in the case of dry ice). The specific heat of water ice is 2.1 kJ/kg/K, meaning that one kilogram of ice will absorb 2100 Joules of heat energy for every degree Celsius it warms. Dry ice sublimates at -78.5C, so in warming from that temperature to 0C, the freezing point of water, one kilogram of water ice would absorb 1kg*2.1 kJ/kg/K*78.5K = 164,850 Joules of heat energy. The latent heat of water ice is 334 kJ/kg, meaning that one kilogram of ice will absorb 334,000 Joules of heat energy just by melting at 0C. The total heat absorbed by 1kg of water ice pre-cooled to the temperature of dry ice would be 164.85 KJ + 334 kJ = 498.85 kJ. So, pre-cooling water ice to the temperature of dry ice would enable it to cool around 50% (49.4%) better than just a bag of ice at the freezing point of water. But, you probably wouldn't get quite that much benefit because a typical freezer cools to around 0F or -17.8C. So a kilogram of water ice that you pulled out of a typical freezer would absorb an additional 2.1kJ/kg/K*17.8K = 37,380 Joules of heat energy, giving a total of 334,000J + 37,380J = 371,380 Joules of heat energy. That means the added benefit of pre-cooling water to the temperature of dry ice instead of 0F would be around 34%, which is significant, but probably not worth the expense of more expensive freezers. The latent heat of sublimation of dry ice is 571 kJ/kg, which still compares favorably to the 498.85 kJ/kg of heat energy absorbed by water ice starting at the temperature of dry ice. This ignores the little bit of specific heat provided by liquid water and gaseous CO2.

@@dansanger5340 yah the non-linearity in energy requirement to raise temperature across "state-of-matter" phase transitions (solid->liquid, liquid->gas) is huge, and I wasn't considering that the water ice does 1 but the dry ice does both, and making water ice colder takes no additional advantage of that i remember the main blocker i found with this though was that dry ice isn't even made by refrigerator equipment; it's made by the cooling caused by depressurizing CO2 out of a tank. To buy super-cold refrigeration equipment is insanely expensive, and there's almost nothing on the market that can cool down to the temperature of dry ice
