Which is the best Peltier module for your project? [test 1]

Ғылым және технология

Hello, my friends!
I received a lot of questions about Peltier modules, especially about the TEC1-12706 type, which is actually the least efficient.
But which is the best one? In this episode I will test a few Peltier modules to find out.
A big THANK YOU to all my patrons, especially to: Max Rice, techge and Anthony Ortenzi.

    What you're seeing is the effect of joule heating. Basically you were able to manage the hot side of smaller peltiers better because heatsinks were larger in proportion. 06 is not rubbish. It has to be planned & executed properly.

    @@RCToys09 I guess there's a reason why the manufacturer make different types with different price or costing. I bet it not only related with size but also with quality. Using liquid cooling required more electricity as input. So if using same input give different output then we can conclude which is more efficient.

    Please do another video like this one, but in the next video, apply heat & determine which module produces the most electrical power when you use the optimal heating for each module design. From what I see online, the TEC1-12706 can produce 57W at 50C, which is 1.425W/mm2. That means ~702 of the TEGs could produce 1 kW of power with an input heat of 50C

    Quite similar as to what I was thinking. Smallest-size peltier (12704) performed "best" compared to the group because of its smallest physical size in proportion to the (heat) radiator. Increasing the cooling capacity (ie: Larger radiator or more fan cooling) in proportion to wattage output needs to be considered to make a fair comparison.

    Repeat the test and track the temp of the large heat sync. You will find that the large heat sync can't keep up with the heat generated by the larger peltier, and it will be hotter with the 12705 than with the 12703. This explains why the temp was greater at 60 minutes than at 30 minutes - the ambient temp of the heat sync rose. A peltier is designed to create a thermal difference between the hot and cold side of the peltier. The colder the hot side is, the colder the cold side will be. For air cooling, the 12703 is better. With liquid cooling, the 12705 will remove more heat than the 12703.

    The modules have different electrical specs and they're being driven with a fixed voltage, the ideal way of driving a peltier module is using a constant current (CC), as resistance varies with temperature. Idealy the module should be driven within 60-70% of its maximum current to maximize lifespan. The last digit of the modules indicates their maximum current. The TEC1-12703 has a maximum current of 3A and is being driven a little above its maximum current. So, this module is being overdriven. My suggestion would be to compare them using CC at the same percentage of the maximum current of the module being tested.

    Least efficient at cooling would likely be best for heating. Peltiers move heat from one side to the other but in doing so they convert a lot of the input electricity to heat which goes out the hot side. In other words they put a lot more energy out the hot side than they take in the cold side.

    Hi, I was wondering where you got the ice from even though you didn't use any water? Was it the thermal paste that developed the ice?

    Hi, moisture in the air turns to water on the cold surface, then to ice.
