In cooling mode, the Coefficient of Performance (COP) of the Peltier cell is equivalent to the all out heat moved through the Thermoelectric cooler (TEC) partitioned by the electric info power, COP = Qc/Pin. The first subplot shows the COP as a component of current for a few temperature contrasts.

2. Introduction
The Peltier effect is named after
JeanCharles Peltier (1785- 1845)
who first observed it in 1834.
The Peltier effect had no practical
use for over 100years until
dissimilar metal devices were
replaced with semiconductor .
Peltiers which could produce much
larger thermal gradients.

4. Seebeck Effect
Discovered by Thomas Johann Seebeck in 1821.
He accidentally found that a voltage existed between two ends of a
metal bar when a temperature gradient existed within the bar.

5. What is a Peltier Cooler?
Thermoelectric heat pumps that will produce a
temperature gradient that is proportional to an applied
current.

6. Device Construction
Individual couples are connected in series electrically and in
parallel thermally
Couples are thermally connected
by a ceramic that has high
electrical resistivity and high
thermal resistivity.

7. Injected Materials In Peltier
Bismuth-Telluride n and p
blocks
An electric current forces
electrons in n type and holes in
p type away from each other on
the cold side and towards each
other on the hot side.
The holes and electrons pull
thermal energy from where
they are heading away from
each other and deliver it to
where they meet.

8. Peltier Effect
At the junction of two dissimilar
metals the energy level of
conducting electrons is forced to
increase or decrease.
A decrease in the energy level
emits thermal energy, while an
increase will absorb thermal
energy from its surroundings.
The temperature gradient for
dissimilar metals is very small.

11. Result’s Interms Of Performance - MATLAB
The first subplot shows the COP as a function of current for
several temperature differences.
It can be observed that, for the same current value, the COP
value is lower for larger temperature differences.

12. The second graph shows how the heat flow evolves with the
input current.
The last graph shows the operating current that maximizes the
COP value for each temperature difference.
