Different-sized thermoelectric cooler modules operated by a thermoelectric generator system

open access: yesNumerical Heat Transfer, Part A: Applications, 2023
This study produced a numerically optimum design of a mini refrigerator with a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) powered by a thermoelectric generator (TEG) system in a turbocharged tractor. The effect of the cross-sectional areas of the thermocouples constituting the TEC on the energy transformation from electricity to thermal was examined.
