We tested a Peltier-Element. Detecting the temperature on the cold side of the element and between the rips of a fan. We use LabView for the control of the system...

  • I'm not sure if I understand you right, my english... (insulate my cpu?!)

    But I think cooling your PC-element(s) with a Peltier is difficult and always expensive (read no other opinions). A better way seems a watercooling-system. Sorry that I can't help you... :(

  • @stepe131 Hi! I am doing this experiment but would like o ask if it is a good idea to keep the hot side of the peltier facing down?

    Thanks!

  • @Unasigad: For Sure you get a better effect, if you do it like you describe. (Heat goes up..) But for our trial it was not necessary. Furthermore it was a test for an practical employment, so that we didn`t had the choice. The construction limited the possibilities... IF you get any interesting results, i would enjoy a short statement ;-)

    Greetings

  • Hi Exhaustzist,

    we used a PE from reichelt.de. Look for the water-resistant element...

    Instead of the maximum of 15,4 V we generated 15 V to run the experiment.

see all

  • I like how the coolermaster hyper 212 cpu cooler is used in a majority of these videos. It works well in my computer too :)

  • Good experiment, but I think the final result can be more awesome, if you place the heat pipe + heat sink accordance with the design first, do not be upside down. because the heat pipes utilizing the principle of capillarity.

  • Is it possible to limit the voltage going into the peltier plate cheaply and efficiently? I've always wanted to use one but not insulate my cpu =\

  • Its Labview! Haha haven't seen that program in a while.

  • Has anybody tried peltiers submerged in mineral oil? If so, you could make a mean overclocker with low risk...

  • with how much Volts did your peltier element work?
