| Summary: | This study highlights on the experimental study of the performance of the thermoelectric (TE) modules, which in this case will be used in a single room test house. With the rise of energy requirements today throughout the world, innovations that would reduce costs of energy and dependence on traditional fossil fuels and reduce environmental impacts are in high demand. Among the biggest consumption of energy in both industrial and residential areas is in space conditioning in the form of cooling and heating in order to meet the requirements of human thermal comfort. Among the latest potential technology being researched in fulfilling the requirements of space conditioning is thermoelectric (TE) devices [1]. As for the thermoelectric modules, recent reviews shows that there are significant advantages of using this TE cooling or heating systems. This includes, they are compact in size, significantly lighter, highly reliable, no-fluid involve in the process, no mechanical moving parts involved, and easy to configure between cooling and heating. It is expected that based on this experimental study, the performance of thermoelectric modules will be examined and to see the impact towards cooling for a single room. |
