Heating
Peltier
The first heating method we tested was using a Peltier Device. This is an electronic device that, when DC power is applied,
gets hot on one side and cold on the other side.

First test setup:

    current drawn from power supply while heating water                    water being heated, (condensing on copper sheet)
