“…The passive cooling capacity was the conduction heat transfer rate. Jugsujinda et al (2011) estimated the Qc for their cooler using theoretical formula, consequently, they did not describe the conduction heat transfer rate. Mirmanto et al (2018b) considered the conduction heat transfer rate for their thermoelectric cooler box performance calculation; however, they did not vary the water volume.…”

Due to rapid demand on the thermoelectric cooler box, an investigation concerning the effect of water volume on a thermoelectric cooler box performance and its COP has been conducted. The aim of this study is to know the performance and the COP of the cooler box with water volume variations. The conduction heat transfer rate flowing from the ambient to the cooler box space is discussed deeply as this type of heat transfer rate is seldom to be elucidated in the published literature and it can be the dominant of the heat load when there is no water volume inside the cooler box. The cooler box size was 390 mm x 320 mm x 530 mm and the water volume variations employed were ranging from 0 to 4500 ml. The power used was of approximately 51.27 W. The results indicate that increasing the water volume raises the cooler box space temperature and the COP but decreases the conduction heat transfer rate. At 0 ml water volume, the conduction heat transfer rate increases and it gets constant, while at higher water volumes the COP decreases with the time. The effect of the water volume on the heat transfer rate of the air is negligible but it is significant on the total heat transfer and conduction heat transfer.

This paper analyses the hypothesis of using Peltier cells based heat pumps for the acclimatization of a real building. It define a possible design of a low cost reversible heat pump that allows combined heating and cooling of an high energy efficiency container house with a low emissions envelope. The climatic location has been indicated in Bologna (Italy). A complete and exhaustive mathematical model has been defined. The plant has been accurately designed by considering real industrial components. In particular, a preliminary dimensioning have been produced It clearly demonstrates that this plant can couple efficiently with a photovoltaic energy plant because of the seasonal distribution of consumption between heating and cooling needs.

Summary The negative environmental impacts of burning fossil fuels have forced the energy research community seriously to consider renewable sources, such as naturally available solar energy. This paper provides an overview of solar thermoelectric (TE) cooling systems. Thus, this review presents the details referring to TE cooling parameters and formulations of the performance indicators and focuses on the development of TE cooling systems in recent decade with particular attention on advances in materials and modeling and design approaches. Additionally, the TE cooling applications have been also reviewed in aspects of electronic cooling, domestic refrigeration, air conditioning, and power generation. Finally, the possibility of solar TE cooling technologies application in “nearly zero” energy buildings is briefly discussed, and some future research directions are included. This research shows that TE cooling systems have advantages over conventional cooling devices, including compact in size, light in weight, high reliability, no mechanical moving parts, no working fluid, being powered by direct current, and easily switching between cooling and heating modes.
