New Physical Interpretation of Thermoelectric Cooling in Semiconductor Structures
Nontraditional approach to explain the thermoelectric cooling is suggested . It is based on the Le ChatelierBraun thermodynamic principle. New effect of cooling and heating of junction of two materials (barrierless thermoelectric cooling) is theoretically predicted, and this effect is different from the Peltier effect (barrier thermoelectric cooling). The suggested thermoelectric effect must be...

متن کاملPulsed cooling of inhomogeneous thermoelectric materials
Abstract It has been proven that the maximum cooling temperature of a thermoelectric material can be increased by using either pulsed operation or graded Seebeck profiles. In this paper, we show that the maximum cooling temperature can be further increased by the pulsed operation of optimal inhomogeneous thermoelectric materials. A random sampling method is used to obtain the optimal electrical...
متن کاملCooling of Motorcyclist Helmet with Thermoelectric Module
This paper deals with the development of cooling system for motorcycle helmet using thermoelectric technology. The system consists mainly of a heat sink and thermoelectric module. When electrical voltage is applied to the thermoelectric module, it will create a temperature difference across the thermoelectric module. This phenomenon is also known as Peltier effect, is being used to utilize elec...
متن کاملExact Solution of a Constrained Optimization Problem in Thermoelectric Cooling
We consider an optimization problem in thermoelectric cooling. The maximum achievable cooling temperature in thermoelectric cooling is, among other things, affected by the Seebeck coefficient profile of the inhomogeneous materials. Mathematically, the maximum cooling temperature is a non-linear functional of the Seebeck coefficient function. In this study, we solve this optimization problem exa...
