Ways to increase the resistance of thermoelectric cooling modules to mechanical impacts
Keywords:
thermoelectric modules, reliability, anti-diffusion coating, efficiency, simulationAbstract
The possibility of a significant increase in the resistance of thermoelectric modules to mechanical impacts is shown. The influence of the bandage anti-diffusion coating on the energy parameters of thermoelements has been determined. It has been shown that the use of thermoelements with an anti-diffusion bandage-type coating significantly increases the resistance of thermoelectric modules to mechanical impacts. Bibl. 14, Figs. 7.
