Title: thermoelectric + Heatsink + fan ? Post by: Sakarias-Corporation on January 03, 2015, 02:51:23 AM how much cooler would the air be if a hook up a thermoelectric to a heatsink and a fan ?
Like this: thermoelectric = 0 Heat Sink = E Fan = S 0--E--S would the air be any cooler or would it be a total waste ? Title: Re: thermoelectric + Heatsink + fan ?

A heat sink would be enough in itself, if its a large surface area .But the combination would definitely be perfect for the heat removal.

Thermoelectric use a LOT of power. A small window air conditioner is prolly way more efficient. Both have a hot side and a cool side. YMMV :) |
