not sure of hte purpose of DC verus AC. I know what they are but in this aplication not any real idea why you would prefer one over the other. |
Ok, that's a start.
So you're not looking to test a water block then?
The reason that DC is preferable, is simply because it's easier to measure, and to replicate from test to test.
If you used AC, you might have some fluctuations in the voltage; you'd be hard pressed to set it to a specific voltage, so that you can test under the same conditions. You'd also be facing the difficult task of measuring AC with similar accuracy as DC, which simply requires a good DMM, and a shunt (all calibrated).
