Reaction calorimetry applied to kinetic problems. The design and construction of an isothermal calorimeter with heat compensation by the Peltier effect, and the application of the calorimeter in the study of reaction kinetics in solvent/water mixtures.
An isothermal calorimeter controlled by the Peltier effect has been designed and constructed in order to investigate reaction rates in solventwater mixtures. Because a thermal method was used a constant temperature environment was essential and this was achieved by using a water bath controlled to …

Sensorless temperature estimation and control of Peltier devices
Peltier devices, also known as thermoelectric devices (TEDs), are solid state junctions of two dissimilar materials in which heat transfer and electrical conduction are coupled. A current running through a TED causes heat to flow; likewise, the presence of an external temperature gradient will …

Segmented binary control of shape memory actuator systems
… The new control method is implemented using the Peltier effect thermoelectric devices for selective segment-by-segment heating and cooling. Experiments demonstrate effectiveness of the proposed method.

Peak Current Mode Driver for Thermoelectric Cooler
… (TECs) are solid state devices that use the Peltier effect to provide heating or cooling for an enclosed area when a voltage is applied. In order to both heat and cool, a bidirectional current must be supplied to the TEC. Therefore, a driver circuit is needed to supply the TEC with this …

Artificial Anisotropy for Transverse Thermoelectric Heat Flux Sensing
… in thermoelectric theory are the Seebeck and Peltier effects. The Seebeck effect is the generation of a voltage in a device that consists of two different materials in the presence of a temperature gradient, while the Peltier effect is the generation of a temperature gradient across a device …
