Solid-State Cooler: New Opportunities
نویسندگان
چکیده
The idea of engineering cooling systems and generators based on thermal transformations and energy conversion in solids has been exciting scientific minds already for several decades. In recent years, a possibility of coolers production based on the electrocaloric effect (ECE) began to become of special interest [1]. This interest is related to the substantial progress made in investigations of ferroelectric materials. Basis of the ECE theoretical description was already developed in 1878 by W.Tomson and given by [2]

Effect of conjugate heat transfer in designing thermoelectric beverage cooler
Peltier technology opens new opportunities for special applications. In the current project, this technology was applied to design and fabricate a portable thermoelectric beverage cooler and thermoelectric cup. The simulation and results of the experiment showed that the common beverage cooler is not a suitable design for ignoring the effect of natural convection in cooling. In our thermoel...

متن کاملThermodynamic Foundations of Solid-State Cooler Based on Multiferroic Materials
In view of the increasing requirements on energy saving, as well as the necessity to cool the growing number of on-chip components, the alternative cooling principles not associated with the traditional refrigerants become more and more actual. The most promising are the solid-state cooling devices, among which are widely used systems based on the Peltier effect. However, due to the low refrige...
متن کاملChallenges and opportunities in solid-state chemistry*
We are largely unable to predict the composition and crystal structure of new extended structure compounds. Yet we find that as materials become more complex in stoichiometry and structure, new, interesting, and perhaps useful, phenomena are encountered. The need for improved experimental and theoretical approaches to seize more rapidly the opportunities provided in this complexity is discussed.
