Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

COOLING GLOVE COMPARTMENT OF A VEHICLE BY THERMOELECTRIC COOLERS

ENVIRONMENT. TECHNOLOGY. RESOURCES. Proceedings of the International Scientific and Practical Conference
In this study, effects of the four different thermoelectric cooler (TEC) placements on the boundaries of the glove compartment have been numerically investigated under the effect of natural convection with Boussinesq approximation. The best cooling capacity has been observed for the top boundary TEC application for the investigated glove compartment ...
