What is it?
The thermoelectric effect is
the direct conversion of
temperature differences to
electric voltage or vice-
versa.
The direction of heat flow
can be controlled by
changing polarity of the
voltage source
INTRODUCTION
Refrigeration is the process of pumping heat energy out of
an insulated chamber in order to reduce the temperature of
the chamber below that of the surrounding air.
Thermoelectric refrigeration uses a principle called the
"PELTIER" effect to pump heat electronically.
This is a good project for anyone getting into mechanical or
wanting an idea for something cool. This project not very
expensive either.
The space inside the fridge is big enough for normal sized
cans, large cans, chocolate bars, carton drinks, or anything
else you might want.
Thermoelectric cooling uses the Peltier
effect to create a heat flux between the
junction of two different types of
materials.
A Peltier cooler, heater, or thermoelectric
heat pump is a solid-state active heat
pump which transfers heat from one side
of the device to the other, with
consumption of electrical energy,
depending on the direction of the current.
EXISTING SYSTEM
Compressive Refrigeration
1) Refrigerant fluid is compressed (high
pressure temperature increases)
2) Fluid flows through an expansion valve
into low pressure chamber (phase of
refrigerant also changes)
3) Coils absorb heat in the device

PROPOSED SYSTEM
Thermoelectric Refrigeration (TER)
A temperature difference between the
junctions of two dissimilar metal wires
produces a voltage potential (known as
the Seebeck Effect)
Peltier cooling forces heat flow from one
side to the other by applying an external
electric potential
