- Have anyone ever considered using Peltier junction devices to help keep coolant temperature down? They are semiconductor devices that can create up to a 68 C temperature differential from one side to

- You won't see a net gain due to efficiency losses. Draw more current and the engine works harder to turn the alt/generator which will kick out more heat. Perpetual motion comes to mind. A better inve

- Compared to a radiator, the heat transfer capacity of a Peltier junction is miniscule. Besides, the current to run it comes from gasoline burned in the engine. There will be more heat dumped into the

- Haven't considered such a device. But don't they also generate heat on the opposite side of the cold? Where are you going to put this extra heat...in the engine compartment? mayf opposite
