Thermoelectric System for Personal Cooling and Heating
In recent decades, personalized and customized thermal management technologies are emerging along with the flourishing of diverse personal thermoregulation requirements. Among all potential technologies that may replace conventional bulky air conditioning system, thermoelectric (TE) technology has several advantages over conventional cooling systems, including low driving energy, compact in size, eco-friendly and low-maintenance requirement, no direct mechanical moving parts and working fluid, and having it simple to switch between cooling and heating modes. Recent researches on thermoelectric technology for personal thermal management (PTM) are discussed in this Chapter, including modeling and design methodologies, novel system/device structures, and innovative TE materials. Current representative studies are summarized, and prospective future trends in terms of modeling, structures, and materials are discussed.
