Convection heater with oil being heated in a chamber. Fans are using a Peltier device to generate electricity that powers the motor to drive the fan blades. The heat from a wood stove is conducted through the bottom half of a wood stove fan and the temperature difference compared to the top half creates an electrical current.
@@peterhutchings6356 uses a Peltier device to generate electricity that powers the motor to drive the fan blades. The heat from a wood stove is conducted through the bottom half of a wood stove fan and the temperature difference compared to the top half creates an electrical current. We are just using heat as energy from the heated radiator. The stove has an element that uses oil that surrounds it to transfer the energy to heat. That uses less than 400 watts of energy. 10,000 Btu with a fan moves the Convection heat to move around.
I've been looking around to see if these stove fans would work with an oil filled heater, thanks for this video!
Good luck. I hope that it works for you.

Are those stove heaters electric or purely working in the airflow generated by the radiator?
Neat build, good to see the experiment works
