Experienced astrophotographers will not outgrow this astrocam. The Altair 26C is perfect for photographing beautiful nebulas ...

The maximum efficiency of a thermoelectric material for both power generation and cooling is determined by its figure of merit (zT): For the past 40 years, thermoelectric generators have reliably ...

The running gear for this build is nothing fancy; it’s just a standard thermoelectric cooling module and a fan. The trick was getting the airflow over the module right. [Ben] uses two air inlets ...

Neil Savage looks at thermoelectric coolers based on the Peltier effect that are designed for this task. Thermoelectric coolers (TECs), also known as Peltier coolers, are semiconductor devices ...

Before I head out the door for a big Costco run, I always turn down my refrigerator and freezer temperatures. I know that once I load them up with room-temperature groceries, it’s going to take ...

A team of researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University propose locally embedded thermoelectric devices (TEDs) that can perform active cooling inside circuits.

A Chinese-Egyptian research group has investigated how rooftop PV may be coupled with thermoelectric coolers (TEC), which are also known as Peltier heat pumps as they operate according to the ...

A group of researchers from South Africa's Central University of Technology has designed a solar module integrating a cooling system relying on a thermoelectric cooler (TEC). TECs can convert heat ...
