“…[ 148 ] As long as the cold side of TECs is attached to the heat source to absorb heat while dissipating the heat from the hot side, a cooling function can be easily generated. [ 130 ] Generally, with increasing the current density, a higher Δ T can be achieved. However, the Joule heat and Thomson heat generated inside the TECs can become significant, which may cause unstable temperatures at both the cold and hot sides.…”

“…Till now, many articles have been overviewed the progress and challenges of thermoelectric cooling technology. [ 8,50,63,65,77,82,116,121–130 ] These reviews contain both bulk and flexible structure, design, performance, and various applications. For example, a passive (phase change materials) and an active (thermoelectric cooler) battery thermal management system and their limitations were overviewed, [ 50 ] and a comprehensive review of solar thermoelectric cooling systems is reported.…”

“…However, the maximum heat fluxes of the thermoelectric cooling is only several W/cm 2 . In addition, the cost and efficiency of this technique should also be concerned in some applications [83]. Due to the characteristics of thermoelectric cooling method, it is more suitable for component and board level cooling.…”

Heat management technology for solid‐state high voltage and high repetitive pulse generators: Towards better effects and reliability

et al. 2023

Solid‐state high voltage high repetitive pulse generators have a broad prospect in various applications. The high power and high‐frequency operation of the pulse generator suffer from the massive heat dissipation problem, which limits the improvement of the output parameters and even affects the lifetime. This article focuses on heat management technology for high voltage high repetitive pulse generators. Firstly, the typical circuit topology of the high repetitive pulse generators was summarised. From the perspective of different application requirements, the demands of the heat management design were concluded. Moreover, the heat generation characteristics and difficulties of solid‐state high voltage high repetitive pulse generators were analysed. Then, the different state‐of‐art cooling techniques were reviewed, and their applicability and limitations for the high voltage high repetitive generators were discussed. Finally, a flow chart for heat management design was given.

“…This method refers to the discovery of thermoelectric cooling and temperature control, today's most widely used thermoelectric applications [22]. Budiyanto et al, [27] reported on the analysis of the application of a thermoelectric cooler to control the room temperature of unmanned surface vehicles to keep stable. The mechanism, in general, is explained in Figure 3 [28].…”

This study aims to design and build a water-chilling device for strawberry irrigation in low-land areas in Malaysia. Strawberries possess better growth in a chilled environment. On that note, a chilling thermoelectric device known as the Peltier plate has been used in this project, which follows an open-cycle system. This process is cost-effective and more convenient than the other methods used for strawberry plantation, such as providing an air-conditioner, which is costly, and using a sprinkler, which may rot the strawberries in wet conditions. Therefore, we propose a low-cost chilling device to chill the water with low-temperature water to be applied in strawberry plants. The plant treated with the water chiller showed better growth with 12 cm of height. The thermoelectric effect has been adopted in this study as the source of chilling since it reduces the temperature on one side and increases it on the other side. The heat is to be discharged using two fans to increase the difference in temperature between the two sides of the thermoelectric device. It involved the Peltier effect, which generates the voltage from the power source to heat/temperature differentials. The obtained result revealed a temperature difference of 5.7 °C between the water-in (27 °C) and water-out (21.3 °C), considered the optimum temperature for strawberries to survive well.
