Abstract
The influence of the efficiency of the initial thermoelectric materials on the dynamics of the functioning of the thermoelectric cooling device for various characteristic current modes of operation in the range of operating temperature drops and heat load at a given geometry of thermoelement legs is considered. The parameters of thermoelectric materials of thermoelements are conventionally divided into three groups: used for batch production, laboratory research and maximum values.The criterion for choosing the operating mode of the thermoelectric cooler takes into account the mutual influence and weight of each of the limiting factors. Since the design conditions can be very diverse, simultaneously varying several limiting factors (constructive, energy and reliability), you can choose the most rational mode of operation.The analysis was carried out for typical current modes of operation of thermoelectric coolers: maximum cooling capacity, maximum cooling capacity at a given current, maximum coefficient of performance, minimum failure rate. It is shown that with an increase in the efficiency of the initial thermoelectric materials, the time for reaching the stationary operating mode of the thermoelectric cooler, the required number of thermoelements, and the maximum temperature difference increase.A method is proposed for reducing the time constant of thermoelectric coolers due to the revealed relationship between the efficiency of thermoelectric materials and the dynamic characteristics of thermoelements. It is shown that an increase in the dynamic characteristics of thermoelectric coolers is achieved without changing the design documentation, manufacturing technology and additional climatic and mechanical testing of products.
