EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON THERMOELECTRIC AIR CONDITIONER DRIVEN BY SOLAR CELLS

摘要：

The thermoelectric devices can convert solar energy into a temperature difference to act as coolers or heater with the help of PV arrays, especially in the remote area without power network. The experiment device is composed of thermoelectric refrigeration modules, fan, air channel, cooling cabinet and temperature measurement system. The thermoelectric air conditioner (TEAC) system is tested with different working electric voltage of thermopile; its operational parameters are obtained for different operational conditions. The Coefficient of Performance (COP) is analyzed in experimental ways. The factors that affect the efficiency of TEAC are discussed on the basis of experimental investigation by air-cooled thermoelectric module and water-cooled thermoelectric module.
