Hello,
I am working on a project (not related to PC cooling) that involves modulating the temperature of a certain region of interest (involves both heating and cooling). So far, I've got a Peltier (TEC) system set up, and I'm looking to implement a liquid cooling system to transfer heat/cold.
The heating/cooling will take place in a small enclosed space (specifically, at the fingertips of a model baby), and I'm trying to circulate heated/cooled liquid into this space using tubes and a pump. The TEC will be heating/cooling the liquid.
I have 1/4'' ID, 1/8'' OD tubing, and I plan on purchasing this water block (http://www.shop.customthermoelectric...m1plqscsfapp06) so the TEC can heat/cool the water.
Now, here are a few questions I have:
- Will this fitting (http://www.mcmaster.com/#5694t11/=snv896) be appropriate?
- Are there really small pumps available? (To fit in a model baby--space is of the essence)
- Is there a generic water block that I could use to heat/cool the region of interest (fingertips)?
- Will a T-line (instead of a reservoir) be plausible?
