- Thermoelectric Cooler also is known as Peltier device, Peltier heat pump, solid state refrigerator, or thermoelectric cooler (TEC).
Such device can make ice, also it can work in reverse and produce electricity. To power this device I use 12V DC power supply.
In the video I use TEC1-12706 (model). - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Doctor.." so how did you burn and freeze your fingers at the same time?
So how can you put the same finger on both the side at the same time..
@@DevOpsGuy0 He said Fingers
Not Finger
Should have read this comment first 😂👉🏼👈🏼
You are not just teaching on how to make an air conditioner, but you teach us more to make electricity. thumb up!
You don't know how much of a help this is to me!!! Thanks a lot!
very nice and deferential vedio.i ilike to much that is amazing anad interesting ....💡✔
Dude! We owe you a beer! Thanks for the video!
Now I can make an emergency cooler using just a drinking glass, that thing, and my dad's solar panel.
It's almost like magic, seeing how fast it worked
One use is for CPU cooling but that would end up radiating to the rest of the computer. I'm glad you said about heat transfer creating electronic flow.
Yeah heat can be dumped to create electricity
I remember some air coolers used a peltier diode. Using one of these would definitely require a high airflow case
Liked it very much. Very nice demonstrations and presentation. Thank you.
Thanks for introduced a new component for me. Liked and subscribed.
Great video I did this experiment a while back when I got one of these out of thrown away chewing tobacco refrigerator. I was able to freeze drops of water on it almost instantly.
What is device called?
Thanks for the video. Enjoyed.
These disks seem to have become plentiful recently, mostly manufactured in China. Not sure what the manufacturer has planned.
Despite their relative inefficiency, there seems little reason why they cannot be used in a number of applications. These are considerably more practical than a compressor.
These devices work great as a fireplace heat distributor
What's the name of this divice
@@vardaraj5835 Peltier a.k.a. Thermo-Electric Cooler (t.e.c.)
To me this is product is like the conical bullet in 19 century or faster than light travel in the 23rd. To be able to cool anything with electricity at a such a small scale with power and no pressure/gasses needed is a miracle that should be further developed. I’ve bought this as an aquarium water cooler and was able to power it with a solar generator and a liquid cooling pad for my sleeping bag during the day and heated water during the cold nights. For someone that lives in a humid climate, I find this tech revolutionary. Would love to invest in making commercially available water cooling/heating systems for all applications.
What is this dark magic lol! I'm loving it.
i really like Peltier , it helps me a lot for small projects with low cost
Do overclocking community already applied this method other else than ln2?
i tested also peltier.. great component!!!

Great video, thanks for posting! can you please drop me an email at jlwang@ntu.edu.sg, I would like to use this video in an online course I am teaching at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, and would need your permission. Junling
Hello, yes, you can use it, permission granted!
If you're going to download it and show it offline, please add the link to my channel so people could find it: th-cam.com/users/ElectricalPro
Your shop address please boss
I would like to ask how much the price of a peltier cooler set abd where is to buy
Where can i buy it?or you just made it by yourself?
Your voltage and current tests were highly alternating in both time and heat actually applied.
Congratulations vipul sir..
Thank you. I have one but cold side only min 13deg c. What do you think is problem?
interesting i also found those things was tinking to make a little fridge. but i am wondering can u boost it to 12v ? i am not that great with electricitie but if thats possible shoulden u be abble to stick 2 to each other and let the hot side heat up the one that generates te power and the other one of course cosume the power to heat it again free fridge power ? ow i also found a föhn heater that is 12v so should also be able to make a heater if its possible of course
Would it be possible to put a fan on the hot side with the heat sink to create a small heater that could be used for defrosting a windshield during the winter months? What kind of amperage to these typically require?
Great video...
What is the thermal base you are using? And what is it for? Cn we do the experiment without thermal base?
Cool video! .... random question, say I have two of those and I am cooling water will it reach a colder temperature than each of the coolers? Or the only difference is that it will just cool to that temp faster?
The water can't reach lower temperature than the coolers, but they can cool fast
Did you need the heat sink when you hear the cold face to create electricity? Or you could doit whiteout?
Great explanation of what this can, and can't do. I was hoping to use this to chill the water in an evaporative cooler, but it generates as much heat as it cools, which a fridge does as well. ;0) Did you measure how much heat it produces? Also can you regulate the heat/cold by regulating the voltage? Or is it only on or off?
Nice video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Nice Information 👌👌👌
Pls make a vid. on how to make this cool gadget...it's amazing
Thanks to captions!
Is Seebeck's effect at 4:10? Thanks for the video!
Thank you. What is the temp sensor and the interface to show the temperature?
Very cool, I'm gonna take a small electric refrigerator apart and play with the plate lol
Does this work to light up a room or house? Or this us just experimenting?
Quite interesting video, gonna make laptop cooler out of it
Very Interesting. Thanks.
Using a lighter to power a light is so mind blowing.
Excellent project! Please tell me how you graphed out the temp like that? I have a need for such telemetry. Thank you, subbed.
Hi, hardware ESP8266, and sensor DS18B20... and my horrible "spaghetti code" with highcharts. I will make a video someday when I will be not so lazy.
THANKS!!! Thanks for the education!!!!!! Question: if I mount one of these....Peltier Device to the back of solar panels, to harness the waste heat (and try to cool down panel), does that mean I have more energy from the system?
How large can a Peltier Device be?
Hi, Good question. I also have thought about this... I am not an expert on this, but I think yes, you will get more energy. It doesn't matter how large Peltier Device can be, because you can connect them sequentially (as many as you want). But it probably will be very expensive and not worth it. I guess you will get an additional 1% or 3 % of energy... but it is just my guess.
if you watercooled the hot side (the side that dissipates heat) im sure that you could get something useful
@@ElectricalPro how much time does it take to make ice
@@ElectricalPro how much does it cost?
I've always loved these things
this comment might be too late but how do you control the temperature? im planing on making a phone cooler with a tec. should i attach a potentiometer?
Good video👏🏼
I have used a similar setup to heat up my homemade egg incubator(2ft by 1.5ft). I used a heat sink fan to spread the heat evenly inside the box.
What did you do with the cool side. Is it just cooling?
Wow that's really coold dude
Can I get a bigger thermoelectric with larger diaphragm?
Thank you so much for this video 👍🏻👌🏻✌🏻
Does the thermal paste contribute so much to the temp difference?
while heating one side of peltier when some load connected to it, does the other side gets cold?
Fixing hot plate at 50 degrees and the heat sink, which thermoelectric module would produce more power: TEC1-12702, TEC1-12706 or TEC1-12710?
With ice on the one hand and heat (heating or chimney) on the other, even more volts are generated .. I've seen some great projects .. If you order something like this, it is best to order several at the same time.. ;D
Can this be implemented in clothing? I’m looking to design the next generation of clothing that is introducing technology. Is it possible to make this inside a jacket where a switch determines if the jacket gets cool or warm suitable for the right environment?
If you give it less power, does it lower the cooling effect or just not work?
Several years ago my junk-friend gave me a dorm fridge the had 2 fan-heatsink units. I hooked them up and was amazed that the cold side in 5 minutes was frosted and my digital thermometer got down to -8 degrees after 15 minutes it was frosted solid.
Thanks Nicolas. I got the fridge for the cabinet to make a food drier thinking the internal fans blowing though small heat elements top and bottom would work well. But like a lot of things, as I got older, it went back to the junk yard full of other junk. I have no used for the cooling units, so they will go on e-Bay. Keith L. @Nicolas Broszky
Hi Johnny. You can't really "hook up" the heat sinks, they're just to dissipate the heat. And they have muffin fan bolted to them. The part that got -8 and frosted over was the aluminum Cold sink that penetrated to the inside of the box which had 2 smaller muffin fans to move cold air. I had both Peltier and the large fan hooked to 12V, and the heat sink was really doing it's job and was very warn. @Johnny Buoy
Hi Johnny . The muffin fan draws very little, maybe 1/2 amp and the Peltier I believe draws 5 amps, most are 50-72 watt. KL@Johnny Buoy
Very cool device I never heard about this amazing
🖕
How could you insulate the hot from the cool side , also you use 12 volts but what's the amperage of the source?
Great Information
👌👌
That is so cool!
How Ampere power supply you use bro?
Sorry, I just want to ask. What is the function of heatsink? I already read in google, but still don't understand.
This is amazing
It will be fun for kids..... Thanks
Really simple setup thanks
Hi!! Really nice video!
I know there are different type of peltier cells. Which kind of P(eltier) C(ell) is this?
Where do you buy it?
I did and experiment with a PC but I wasn't able to get any colder than 20C on the cold side, I used a very powerful heat sink a CPU heat pipe with a capability of 200W heat dissipation but 20C was the coldest temp I reach. My thought was that my cell is not a very good quality of maybe is a wrong type.
Thanks for any help!
Hi, I've used TEC1-12706, bought it in a local online store (not worth mentioning). Well, make measurements: voltage and current, and try to find out what is wrong. Is your heat sink getting warm?... well I don't know what is wrong, need more info.
@@ElectricalPro that's the point all measurements are looking fine. Voltage oscillates between 12.5 and 11, current at full power is between 2.8 and 3.3 amperes. My heat sink is getting really warm. the cell without heat sink goes in a couple of seconds to 100 degree, with the heat sink it stabilises around 50. this is ok but mean wile the "cold" side is at 20
Ok, it seems like your Peltier device is defective. It is not just "not a very good quality", it doesn't work at all, it is defective.
I did not care much where to buy it, I just googled TEC1-12706 and bought it.
does it need to have contact with water for the water to cool?
Increíble un generador termodinamico y que puede ser calentado también por la luz del Sol y al mismo tiempo puede reemplazar a un Freezer de una nevera
Did you try use it on a CPU to see the prolong use of it?????????
Nice
Can we use it as a solar panel?
could the walls of fireplaces in poor countries homes be lined with these to make electricity to charge batteries for night time lights? leds ect?
I just want to ask you, why my peltier get hot both side when connected to battery?
Maybe peltier is fake, I don't know. Many people complained about this issue.
Could you please let me know what you are using for temperature logging? hardware and software. Thanks
DS18B20 sensor + ESP8266 with custom firmware (it is just like Arduino).
That’s very cool, no pun intended
What's the upper temperature limit the hot side can handle?
how much voltage did you give to the peletier model
can you make a video how its work with sequence theory.
certainly you can use this deal for these mini ac units. Could be a mini heater too.
Loved this video!
Thank you!!
Is it possible to control the temperature on the cold side? (let's say 25 Celsius)
Wonderful information
Couple it with fresnel lens and make a solar panel out of it and generate some electricity with high heat from focused sunlight. Use the cold part to cool food and house.
Xeno Bardock
I think there’s a limit to how much heat it could absorb which leads to the question could it provide enough energy to run household components off of sunlight and a fresnel lense? He used fire that only gave him .5 volts you couldn’t run your house clock with that.
@@Mega6501 It will need to be improved first. There's a lot of room for improvement in thermoelectric technologies.
There's even a Thermoelectric CPU Cooler on Amazon and video on youtube now.
Xeno Bardock
Interesting I worked on wind turbines before and those towers have almost all electrical components known to man interesting enough I haven’t seen any thermoelectric parts, I need to look into this part as of now I only know they are used primarily on refrigeration I don’t know how this thermoelectric device can cool a cpu when the opposite end is producing heat but then again I don’t know the maximum heat temperature it would raise at.
@@Mega6501 Check this video on Thermoelectric CPU Cooler. th-cam.com/video/8Ld79H7URcw/w-d-xo.html
Xeno Bardock
Thanx for post I had a look, I never doubted it was possible, I actually came to understand on my own how you could cool the opposite end of thermoelectric component it’s actually pretty basic by using the cooling end to cool the hot end it will decrease the temperature by half and thereby creating a safe temperature for use, but I’m not concluding this is the practice applied on the transistors but it seems to me applicable.
Hi there, is this technology available and if so, can the temperatures be regulated?
fantastic
what happens if you cool the other side like putting an ice, will the other side generate heat?
You got new subscriber
What could also be interesting is using those pads in a water cooling setup within a PC for both the CPU and GPU so it could boost the heat transfer rate between the chips and water while also allowing both to run at higher clock speeds! :)
this has been done alot over the years (first in 2007 i think). you can even get a cpu fan/heatsink combo right now, it just sadly isnt great for PC cooling (or cooling over all). imagine a tec as an old light bulb (the brighter it was the more heat it made) the more "cooling" or the colder one side is the hotter the other side gets. and it also cost alot to run it (seen it taking 400 watts in one pc. just to cool the cpu)
@@dakotaxd3727
It would probably also only make sense for server CPUs that run a lot hotter than consumer CPUs.
Does it work the other way? Like making the heating side cold, to generate electricity?
It does generate electricity with a heat difference. Look into the peltier effect
@@MisterBones223 ok?

@Alex Frideres You realize 20 years ago is 1999 and Pentium III was launched? The golden age of overclocking.
which TEC device did you used? May I have a sample? Thanks in advance.
TEC1-12706
Could you put one of these in a cut-out in the side of a small plastic cooler with 12v plug and use it in a car for food and drinks? By not reliable do you mean when you get used to having it, the device quits working? Can the cooling effect be varied with a potentiometer or rheostat on the power input?
I have two coolers already equipped with this. One I bought 20 years ago, and the other about 10 years ago. The biggest drawback, is they only cool 30 degrees below the surrounding temp. Works great in a car for long trips.
Robert Heinkel - thanks for the input. Looks like a cool little weekend project and I could use a cooler like that. If the truck is air conditioned down to 70°f I could expect the cooler to get down to 40°? I’m thinking of just a small, hard plastic 6pack size cooler. I think I have a computer CPU heat sink that even has a small fan on it, that may work well.
what was the power consumption to freeze that water ? thanks
I get y and how it heats up what the hell makes it so cold so fast that's 1 of the coolest power cells I've ever seen
every beer can needs to have one underneath
But how do you smoke it?

Or reverse +/- on the voltage.
At what efficiency it works ?
