You should install a computer controlled valve on your output. Add a DS18B20 sensor to control the valve on a raspberry pi zero or arduino, maybe a relay depending on valve voltage... Set it up to pump into the cooler, and once the liquid reaches a certain ambient temp - the valve opens to squirt some out. Once the output liquid temp rises because the "fresh from bottle" liquid is flowing through - stop the valve until that cools to a set temperature... You'll always have cool liquid.
Not really Peltier-Element Am not really effizient es ist ok vor sochi project but not for more if you want to build on air conditioner ich will need all in all three or four times Energy as one with compressor
I'd love to see this done over with some thought given to the flow of heat between the various parts of the cooler. Heat pipes function better with the heat source at the bottom, as they work through the evaporation and condensation of the water inside them, and heat rises. A lot less important but still worth a mention is your fan orientation in other videos. How you have them here is fine, but the orange juice freezer had the fans blowing downwards, essentially working against where the heat "wants" to go.
it has to be before the heat sink if he adds another 10 cm afterthe first one flow will be just right to get the soda cold and fill the glass at a good speed
You should add a thermal mass to the heat exchanger block to prevent it from heating by the flow too quickly. Big chunk of copper or iron should be fine. Also, keep in mind that if You leave the liquid inside the block it may be cracked once liquid got frozen.

Love how the video is just "this is what I made, I know it's silly and this already exists, but I had fun with it." The thumbnail wasn't distasteful either. Thanks!
Slowing down the output even more as well as using copper or metallic piping/tubing could make this thing work really really well. Is worth investigating, I would buy something like that! Good idea
Move the flow control contraption to the exit pipe, that flows into the glass, so that the liquid outflow gets compressed thereby allowing the liquid to stay longer in the cooling chamber.
Fun project it is 25 amp at 12 volts so on 220 v it is 1.36 amp and for 10 minutes it use a big < .13 amp > not so expansive for a fun project May be you should turn the unit upside down for better perfo < heatsink block under > because the heat always go up
I think you should try to flip the whole thing upside down so heat will rise up into the cooling system more efficiently and use smaller tubing for the drink. Also a fish tank air pump valve might help dial in the flow rate. Keep on making these videos, they are great work.
I just saw a fake Chinese heating device advertisement that used clips from this video (I reported that cheap Chinese trash but thought you might want to know you made a good enough video for people to steal it)
From experience I have noticed that heat pipes work better if oriented in the right direction. In this case the heat sinks should be turned upside down
You should grab another bottle, and some more hose, and circulate the coke through the blocks. This should transfer the heat out of the system, and eventually make the coke ice cold. Add a spout to deliver the coke out of the circulatory system. ;)
The idea of choking the fluid was good, even though you should put it at the outlet of fluid instead of at the inlet, that's the reason why thermostats exist and they go in that point of the system. Good job kid.
Did this same experiment, based on calcs only. Your assessment of the efficiency was the same conclusion that i came to. Peltier coolers (TEC) are a heavy and expensive hammer to use on this job. Great work...
nah, just flush it with water/soap, and then water. pretty much standard procedure to flush a waterloop in pc-world, and carworld, so why not in your sodacooler lel
If only there were some sort of household appliance for this task. Some kind of cold box where we can put things and they will get cold. If only someone could invent such marvelous technology for us to have in our kitchens.
You would have got even better results if you made the whole contraption following convection thing- heated heatsinks side up while the freezing coolant fluid waterblocks down
yeah i know i'm late, but obviously a big block of cold mass, as in making the "waterblock" larger in mass would help it cool down even more, since it propably isn't going to be used for multiple cups at once, assuming ure making it for personal use, then you can easily tune it for your needs!
If you put a block of lead between the water block and chip it will hold the cold longer, acts like a flywheel so you don't loose the energy as fast. cool video and i will sub
@@Fstop313 Copper? Or something non-toxic that wont react with soda but still conducts heat well. Whatever spreads that frost along the whole length of the tube, it could act like a cold-capacitor of sorts. Even better if the thermoconductive pipe is surrounded by a slightly wider insulating pipe filled with thermal-capacitive fluid/gel.
Probably a little late, but you've got the whole assembly upside down. Those heat pipes on the heatsink have a liquid inside that needs to be in contact with the heatsink itself, it boils and rises up the tubes to condense on the walls of the upper tube, transferring it's heat to the copper and dripping back down to be boiled off again. The more heat you can pull off those TEC cells, the more cooling power you'll get out of them. And try modulating the voltage of the pump motor to fine tune the flow of liquid, a trickle would be ideal. Also, adding a peice of aluminum bar stock to the water block bonded with thermal paste will increase the amount of liquid you can flow through it before it warms up, and insulate the outside of that as well to decrease losses. Awesome project, I like the idea of cooling on demand versus cooling the entire volume at once. Kinda like an Insta-Hot, but the opposite.
You dont do that. Potentiometers are mostly not suited for high currents. You would take a transistor or a mosfet and then controll that with the potentiometer. The mosfet is then controlling the pump
Thats what Whiskey Stones are for, my man. Theyre just small blocks of granite or sometimes aluminum. You freeze them like ice cubes and bam. Cold, un watered down beverage.
1) Turn around so that heat fins do not send hot air back up to the blue cooler block. 2) Add temperature sensor with simple regulator (Amazon..) to avoid freezing water in the cooling block. 3) Good design and obviously cools very well. Good luck.
Cool off a copper block with it then take it off and drop it in the coke. That way it can run before you get the drink and be ready when you need it, also will cool it much better and more quickly.
I'd put the restriction on airflow, risk of ruining carbonation with that narrow passage. You came aaaawfully close to clogging the units with slosh/ice! ...but you did it! Eeexcellent! Also... more pressure on the pelt sandwich! Still... good clean fun!
You should have made a loop, a loop in the bottle with a thermostat. The fluid "Loops" until it reaches the right temperature and then the thermostat opens up and delivers the fluid to the glas.
I developed a similar controller to control the temperature of ICs between -70 and 180C. i also tried using large heatsinks like yours using heat pipes; I discovered that using this system I could only get down to about -20C on my second stage plate. I'm pretty sure that's because the liquid in the heat pipes has to evaporate; meaning the hot plate gets to a higher temperature, thus the cool plate is at a higher temperature, If you want it to work faster using a standard aluminium heatsink with a couple fans should do the trick.
I'm running 3 alternators on my truck #1 for the truck itself #2 for the stereo sound system #3 for the jumper cables,power inverter and the diy add on ac using peltier cooling
It's not more expensive, just harder to calibrate and get good resolution. I could have built my own 3D printer but I didn't want to spend months screwing around with it trying to get it dialed in. Instead I got a pre-assembled printer last summer and it's been running flawlessly with zero calibration (beyond the auto-calibration it does before each print) or maintenance. If you're doing it as a hobby, building your own 3D printer can be a great experience, but if you want something that just works, buy one pre-assembled.
Since the coke in the bottle was starting above the cooler and the glass, it was creating a syphon. That's why the flow was so fast and you needed that limiter.
weaker pump hopefully yields slower flow should give the liquid more time to cool down, especially from -10ish C, maybe even sandwiching the tower coolers between the smaller water block
Я не знаю есть ли здесь люди с русского ютуба. Автор, если ты читаешь этот комментарий. Ты очень крутой! Очень классная штука! Мне очень понравилось!!!
No warning about mains electricity? - those psu would be a death trap exposed terminals. Bloody dangerous with a non ip rated psu right next to a liquid
Very cool! Absolutely awesome experiment, lot's of fun to watch. You should flip the entire contraption upside down, since heat rises, it will dissipate into the radiators instead of transferring across the Pelletier's. Yeah, well, commenting 5 years later... Anyway, COOL stuff!!!
Perhaps a large coil of copper tubing placed in a tub of water that's chilled with ice or the setup he's using here. The copper tubing would be similar to that used by Moonshiners to cool and condense the steam from their mash into liquid alcohol. However, we would be supercooling it in a long coil of copper tubing.
The next step to this would be to build a completely sealed container that can handle pressure, and also transfer heat well. using a keg with some peltiers at the bottom, or making a longer path with a longer block to make it colder.
I think it would be way better to not introduce air to the soda so that it doesn't lose it's fizzyness. You could still use the peltier cooler and maybe attach it to a conductive can or some sort. That way, the drink would be fresh.
Great work, I’m doing a similar project, this has helped. One suggestion, bleed off some of the air to reallly slow down the flow, and add some sort of mass to the cooler block, that’ll help hold the temperature down when the coke passes through the block.
I am 100% sure that you would get much better thermal energy transfer if you had high mounting pressure between waterblock - peltier - heatsink. Also it could help having more Thermal mass on the cold side to act as a temperature buffer so the cold side does not heat up when pouring.
What an idea sirji, by doing this you will not only get defuzzed cola but extra nutrient like aluminium and lead in your beverage , corroded from heat exchanger due to acitic nature of cola.
Peltier-Elements or thermoelectric coolers work by "tranporting" the thermal energy ("heat") from one side to the other. To do so, you put current into them, and one side gets hot (the one with the CPU-Cooler) and the other one gets cold (the side with the waterblock). If you put another heatsink on the water block you actually "waste the cold" as there is more thermal mass to cool and the fan even mores more air through it. So to actually improve cooling, you should insulate the cold part, so that the only medium to get cooled is actually the coke passing through.
I'd think double/triple stacking cooling blocks on top of each other so the soda passes through the block furthest from the peltier then through the block nearest the peltier will help drop the temperature further without adding extra current demand. It will increase the thermal mass the coke has to warm too which can only be positive! Obviously the initial cool down and recovery time will be slower but it will be a cost effective way of improving the efficiency and dropping the final temperature. You could also insulate the cold side to prevent ambient heating though the effects will most likely not be that great, finally flip the system upside down since heat naturally rises which will have a small effect on making the heat sinks more efficient. 'Cool project' though :)
With your contraption you can just pump some coke into the blue container and add a longer hose to the end of it and elevate the hose at the end then wait a minute... But I would use only water with anti freeze in the hose and run it in a loop around the glas or better the bottle.

Or poor some coke in a ice tray and put it in the freezer then you have Coke ice Cubs so know water but cold
