Conversely, applying a voltage can create a temperature difference, a phenomenon known as the Peltier effect. 1,2 At the atomic scale, when a temperature gradient is applied to a thermocouple, holes ...
The build video (embedded below,) shows the basic construction and performance of a Peltier effect cooler setup. The system is used to create a layer of supersaturated (and cold) alcohol vapor in ...
The prototype uses a Peltier effect module to get three cans down to 11 C (52 F), with a final goal of reaching 5 C (41 F). It’s not all fun and games either — [Ethan] provides a suggested ...
