THE EFFECTS OF VARIABLE AIR FLOW RATES ON THE SYSTEM PERFORMANCE WITHIN THE THERMOELECTRICAL MODULLED WATER COOLER

Abstract

In this study, 1 kg water which is filled in the 1.5 liter volume container has been cooled by using in the size 40x40x3.8mm with the code TEC-12706 thermoelectrical module. The other fins of the module surface has been cooled by three variable air flow rate and it has been investigated that its performance effect on the system. Although high air flow rate increase of the module performance, it has reduced total performance of system because it has consumed more than necessary fan power.

TERMOELEKTRYK MODÜLLÜ SU SO?UTUCUSUNDA FARKLI HAVA DEBYLERYNYN SYSTEM PERFORMANSINA ETKYLERY

Öz

Bu çaly?mada, 1.5 litre hacmindeki hazne içerisine doldurulan 1 kg su, 40 x 40 x 3.8 mm boyutunda TEC–12706 kodlu termoelektrik modül vasytasyyla so?utulmu?tur. Modülün di?er yüzeyindeki kanatçyklary üç farkly hava debisi ile so?utularak sistem performansyna etkisi incelenmi?tir. Yüksek hava debisi, modülün performansyny arttyrmasyna ra?men daha fazla fan gücü harcanmasyna neden oldu?undan sistemin toplam performansyny dü?ürmektedir.
