How do you keep a few sodas in your classroom cool? Well, if you are teacher [Ethan Hunt], you have your students design and build a solid-state mini refrigerator that can beat his prototype fridge.

The new fridges include a Peltier module that reduces big temperature fluctuations and conserves space. The new fridges include a Peltier module that reduces big temperature fluctuations and conserves ...

The Peltier chip (TEC chip) is a thermo-element that utilizes the Peltier effect to implement a heat pump. It has two plates — one cold and the other hot. Between the plates, there are several ...

Egyptian researchers have built and analyzed a solar-powered mini refrigerator using thermoelectric units (TUs) for cooling. The thermoelectric coolers (TECs) in this study use the Peltier effect, ...

If you need to cool something, the gold standard is using a gas compressor arrangement. Of course, there are definite downsides to that, like weight, power consumption, and vibrations. There are solid ...
