The Joule‐Thomson effect on the thermoelectric conductors

Abstract: Key words Joule-Thomson effect, weak and classical solutions. MSC (2000) 35J55, 78A99, 80A20The transmission of an electric current in a conductor is a process in which some electrical energy is converted into heat (thermal energy). We deal with a nonlinear boundary value elliptic problem which describes the electrical heating of a solid conductor and the Joule-Thomson effect is taken into account. The existence of a weak solution is proved under both space and temperature dependence of the electrical and ther… Show more

“…Let us consider the following problem that extends the thermoelectric problems, which were introduced in [10,11], in the sense of that the thermoelectric coefficient is assumed to be a given but arbitrary nonlinear function. The electrical current density j and the energy flux density J = q + φj, with q being the heat flux vector, satisfy    ∇ · j = 0 in Ω −j · n = g on Γ N j · n = 0 on Γ    ∇ · J = 0 in Ω J · n = 0 on Γ N −J · n = f λ (θ)|θ| ℓ−2 θ − γ(θ)θ ℓ−1 e on Γ, (1) for ℓ ≥ 2.…”
