“…Such a function allows a thermoelectric module to be used as an energy converter [1] or thermal sensor [2]. For the energy conversion application, the module can be used either as an electrical power generator [3] or as a cooler [4]. The thermoelectric property of a material may be evaluated by a characteristic parameter called the thermoelectric figure of merit z, which can be expressed as the following equation [5]:…”

Oxide coatings are corrosion resistant at elevated temperatures. They also show intensive phonon scattering and strong quantum confinement behavior. Such features allow them to be used as new materials for thermoelectric energy conversion and temperature measurement in harsh environments. This paper provides an overview on processing thermoelectric oxide coatings via various technologies. The first part deals with the thermoelectricity of materials. A comparison on the thermoelectric behavior between oxides and other materials will be made to show the advantages of oxide materials. In the second part of the paper, various processing technologies for thermoelectric metal oxide coatings in forms of thin film, superlattice, and nanograin powder will be presented. Vapor deposition, liquid phase deposition, nanocasting, solid state approach, and energy beam techniques will be described. The structure and thermoelectric property of the processed metal oxide coatings will be discussed. In addition, the device concept and applications of oxide coatings for thermoelectric energy conversion and temperature sensing will be mentioned. Perspectives for future research will be provided as well.

This work presents the COP and EER of the combined air conditioning and thermoelectric cooling systems. The small-scale air conditioning (8000 BTU/hr) with thermoelectric cooling systems is set up in the closed room (2.0*2.0*2.0 m), and free energy from the photovoltaic cell is used for the thermoelectric cooling module. The COP and EER with the thermoelectric cooling module are higher than those without the thermoelectric cooling module. It is observed that the COP and EER increase as the axial fan speeds increase. In addition, there is good agreement from the comparison, giving an average error of 3.77%. The highest COP and EER for the system with the thermoelectric cooling module are 1.71 and 5.85 for an airflow rate of 4.7 m3/s, respectively. The results can be used as guidelines for developing the thermal performance of air conditioning by combining it with the thermoelectric cooling module.
