Examples of thermoelectric


thermoelectric
This factor includes the effects of electron electrical and thermal conduction, and thermoelectric effects.
When reaches or exceeds these values, the contribution of the radially inward thermoelectric heat flux is significant.
As for the medium density solutions, the temperature gradient can drive most of the current density through thermoelectric effects.
These results prove that the temperature gradient can be the dominant mechanism of current drive through thermoelectric effects.
All the ion acceleration mechanism appears as a thermoelectric process driven by the heat flow carried by the hot electrons.
The thermoelectric component of the heat flux flows from lower to higher temperatures.
Thermoelectric effects do not make any contribution to the ion heat flux (37).
Equation (36) shows that the effective electric field, defined by (25), drives the thermoelectric contribution to the electron heat flux.
The solutions presented here show that the temperature gradient-driven, thermoelectric current density can make the dominant contribution to the total current density, and so must be taken into account.
When is greater than or equal to this value, the thermoelectric, effective electric-field-driven component of the electron heat flux cancels 50% or more of the temperature-gradient-driven ion heat flux.
The plots of are used to demonstrate that the thermoelectric component of the electron heat flux can cancel a large fraction of the proton heat flux.
Surface temperature feedback can be provided by a small thermoelectric heat pump using semiconductors.
It requires great hydro-electric and thermoelectric stations, which in turn need the construction of roads and railways.
