The thermoelectric refrigeration system is an application of the Peltier effect, and good performance dependent on effective heat dissipation performance. To enhance cooling system, this paper designs a new type finned sink, which does not change overall size system. under fin tested by experiments various conditions. During experiment, wind speed, temperature hot cold side TEC, power consumpti...

The quaternary sulphide V-Sn colusite, Cu26V2Sn6S32, is one of the most promising cost-efficient thermoelectric materials to date because low toxicity, wide availability and cost composing elements. Recent studies have demonstrated potential this environmentally-friendly material its transport properties are now well understood. In present work, we take next step producing large quantities opti...

Abdul et al. (2016) presented a detailed record of sea level at Barbados (13.9–9 kyr B.P.) tightly constraining the timing and amplitude during the Younger Dryas and Meltwater Pulse 1B (MWP-1B) based on U-Th dated reef crest coral species Acropora palmata. The Younger Dryas slow stand and the large (14m) rapid sea level jump are not resolved in the Tahiti record. Tahiti sea level estimates are ...

Environmental scanning electron microscopy has been extensively used for studying the wetting properties of different materials. For some types of investigation, however, the traditional ways of conducting in situ dynamic wetting experiments do not offer sufficient control over the wetting process. Here, we present a novel method for controlled wetting of materials in the environmental scanning...

The Seebeck and Peltier effects have been widely studied used in various thermoelectric technologies, including thermal energy harvesting solid-state heat pumps. However, basic applied studies on the Thomson effect, another fundamental effect conductors, are limited despite fact that allows electronic cooling through application of a temperature gradient bias rather than construction junction s...
