I explain why stacking TECs is not done to increase their cooling efficiency, but can be used to achieve very low temperatures.
Construction and testing of the freezer is coming up in the next video. Stay tuned!

I love this channel! While I admit your TEC project is less exciting to me personally than your turbojet project (sorry), I absolutely love the way you present and approach each project you're working doing. That presentation and the explanation gets me interested in what's going on and keeps me interest irrespective of my "excitement" level. I also truly admire that you don't treat your audience as morons and more as equals, that's extremely refreshing as well. (PS: I'm the daughter of an aerospace engineer/PhD in mechanical engineering thus my excitement over your turbojet project. My dad and I used to build them when I was younger to power Go Carts and the like. We also made a pulse jet engine or two and other such nerdy pursuits. So your turbojet project though different in application from ours, is a trip down memory lane for me anyway). Keep up the fantastic work!

I experimented with TEC 20 years ago (From MECI if anyone remembers) and found the same inefficiencies from stacking. Also, they are much better heaters than coolers. Create 46w heat vs 18w cooling. Great video as always.
@Heatherder
@Heatherder Жыл бұрын
I think another way you could go about stacking TECs is to run them water cooled in series, with two separate loops. The PECs themselves are only touching two water coolingheat exchangers. The chiller water loop and cooling water loops run in a cross flow configuration to minimize delta T for each one. The chilled water return goes into TEC 1 and then TEC 2 and then TEC 3 where it becomes supply and goes to the conditioned space. The cooling water return goes into TEC 3 first and then 2 and then 1 where it becomes supply to the cooling radiator. Now each TEC is running roughly the same delta T and the same wattage just different temperatures. The only disadvantage is this requires a lot of hose and fittings.

I tried putting TECs in a stack as you showed here myself some time ago. In my test the last TEC heated up instead of cooling. I also put the 2nd and 3rd element in series across a PSU. My conclusion was that at a minimum I would have to adjust each TEC with a separate PSU to have a chance of it cooling down at all. Maybe I was feeding it too much voltage though.

I love this idea and I think it might work. A sound wave in gases (liquids) must heat and cool certain zones (low and high pressure distributed along the length). If this is done in a cascade (next line from the top), then low and high temperatures can be achieved. That is, it is possible to make an air conditioner or heater without moving parts. You just need to move the temperature gradient from certain zones and transfer them to the next. This is difficult, since there are no devices that can be bought on aliexpress and tried this principle quickly, to make a video.

I have seen some 5 and 6 stage TEC units made for cooling missile guidance sensors and FTIR detectors. To get VERY cold what you need to do is stack them like a pyramid. A big high element count one on the bottom, heat spreader in between, a 3/4th element count one on top, and repeat as desired. You can get to about -140 to -180 deg C. The floor is because of the heat generated by the devices ❤

If it’s that cold outside, I bet the humidity in that shop is extremely low ...I mean he said that cold tubing is perfectly dry. Here in South Central Texas, hell, you’d have to have a collection pan under that tube because it would drip constantly, and you wouldn’t need to atomize it, there would be enough of it that you could have a cold-water bath to run your return glycol tube through, probably even through a heat exchanger immersed in the accumulated condensation. Sometimes I wonder if the condenser core in my window unit would be better off buried in the cold mud swamp that exists under it almost year-round than it is just sitting there having 105 F. air blown through it. I think the concept of using a water evaporation based system to cool the the evaporation stage of a refrigerant based AC system needs to be looked at again. The idea of just dumping what at least starts out as cold distilled water onto the ground like a waste product just can’t be right ...we’re missing something somewhere...

Pump the atomized condensate outside, lowering the indoor humidity.

Lovely setup. What kind of computer fans are you using? With the fluid dynamic type, over extended periods the bearings will drain of the oil if they're used horizontally like you have them configured there, and sieze. Some manufacturers get around this with grooves in the bearings, so it could be just fine.

There's quite an audience interested in cooling a flowing stream of water such as found in an "open loop" water cooling system for a computer CPU and/or GPU. I would love to see your solution for cooling a moving stream of water - either using Peltier units or some other dark magic you might have up your sleeve.

Another nice video! Have you tried parallel rather than series, ie a single layer array of TEC's (as opposed to stacked) and so covering a larger area ?

Series will allow you to reach greater differentials, but at the cost of effeciency. Parallel is the way to go as long as you're below approximately 1/2 the maximum temperature differential. At very low differentials, they're pretty effecient.

Great video. I am subbed but I don't seem to get you in my sub feed every time, only saw this in the hopless home feed. I am off to watch the results of your fridge build, as I have been eagerly waiting to see them so I can upgrade the mini fridge in the van. It has positions for two elements ecept the heat sink is for one. I suspect it would be a good fridge and not the run off the mill, had they put an extra element in. 18 below ambient is no good, 28 below would be acceptable, 32 or more would be fantastic.

Great video. I would love to see how well you can cool a room using peltiers, and how it compares to a traditional compressor system. Obviously inefficient but that's not really the point.

With brute force, and enough power you certainly do it. We have successfully constructed a dessicant based airconditioner that is more than 2 times as effecient as a compressor based system. That video will be posted soon.
