#84756 - Worked that out
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Of course, that is the fundamental design parameter - and reducing the thermal mass has been an issue. I think we might be able to suck more than 70W, because the heatsink has a -ve thermal resistance - the more you throw at it, within limits the colder it gets ! I haven't done the numbers, using the thermal resistance of an unenergised peltier cell yet.

My point is that the UNcontrolled system passes through the desired temperature in the time I indicated, but no PID controlled system can settle to 0 SSE, in the same time.

Your "posicast" system looks like a great method, if I can implement it, and sort of crystallises the kind of nebulous thoughts about what I wanted to do.
