Résumé

This paper describes the results of an experimental study on the heat transfer characteristics of a commercially available solid-state thermoelectric heat pump device, when applied in an application heating water in minichannels. Each TE device was sandwiched in between two aluminum minichannel heat exchangers, with water flowing through the minichannels in opposite directions. Measurements of the TE substrate temperatures, water temperatures, water flow rates, input voltage and current to the TE were used to determine the heating and cooling capacity and coefficient of performance. The parameters that were varied during the study included the water flow rate, incoming water temperature and current supplied to the TE. These results were compared to manufacturer specifications and theoretical prediction using classical TE equations (based on available TE property data) and showed significant differences. The results are part of a larger study on thermoelectric clothes drying for residential applications.
