... for a real down-hole scenario. Vacuum flask that houses the system lies inside a drill pipe. Note the rejection of heat from thermoelectric device to the out-flowing mud, through a conductive path. The drill tool is also driven by the force of the flowing mud. Copper-air heat exchanger comprises...

... that gives the maximum localized cooling. For liquid heat transfer coefficient between 5000 and 20 , 000 W m − 2 K − 1 , the optimum is found to be between 10 μ m and 20 μ m . Another advantage of thermoelectric devices is their ability to be combined with other conventional liquid cooling techniques ( 6...

...Boris Abramzon The present study proposes a unified numerical approach to the problem of optimum design of the thermoelectric devices for cooling electronic components. The standard mathematical model of a single-stage thermoelectric cooler (TEC) with constant material properties is employed...
