TEC water chiller

cdawall · Jun 5, 2010, 04:57 AM

this is more of a concept that i plan on building for fun

specs to be
4x~70w tecs
4x copper coolers
4x tower coolers (AMD heatpipe HSF for initial testing)
1x styrofoam cooler
4x barbs

the copper coolers need to get turned or the barbs need to be swapped but this is my initial CAD drawing its unrendered just exported as a JPEG any suggestions ideas?

here is with 120mm tower coolers they wont fit thats why i voted 92mm ones

You are cutting holes for a fan or two I would assume?

cdawall · Jun 5, 2010, 05:19 AM

yes the should just about mate with the exterior

why not just buy an ac unit and make it into a chiller ?

pick one up on the cheap, this guy made his under $100

cdawall · Jun 5, 2010, 05:34 AM

TEC , AKA PELTIER is this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect

Heats one side of the device and cools the other side when voltage is applied. it is use'd in some small fridges etc.

larger more powerful models can cool things well below the freezing point of water.

I just got 2 TEC from a mini fridge the other day , planning a mod with them soon.
