DEFINITIONS OF COOLING CAPACITY OF PELTIER THERMOELECTRIC MODULES BASED ON MULTIFACTOR EXPERIMENT

Abstract

The technique of determining the cooling capacity of Peltier thermoelectric module that converts the energy of the electrical current to thermal flows with different direction vectors was presented. Studies were conducted using the metho­dology of planning and carrying out multivariate experiments. On the basis of experimental and analy­tical calculations we derived approximation equation of the second kind that allows you to determine the value of cooling capacity thermoelectric module in a wide range of changes of two determining factors: the magnitude of the current and temperature of the heat-releasing side of the module.
