Abstract

A computational algorithm is presented for determining the modes of thermoelectric cooling that ensure the given temperature difference of the base of the heat-loaded element and the environment. The obtained analytical expressions make it possible to determine the power supply current of the thermoelectric module taking into account its operating characteristics, thermal resistance of the cooling system, and power of the heat-loaded element. The dependences of the current strength on the value of the given temperature difference are calculated and the parameters affecting the thermoelectric cooling modes are analyzed.
