Design of a thermoelectric cooling module for an X-ray detector
Keywords:
computer design, thermoelectric cooling, X-ray detectorAbstract
The paper presents the results of designing a thermoelectric multistage thermoelectric cooling module for
X-ray detectors. The structure of a thermoelectric cooler as part of an X-ray detector is developed and the possibilities of its practical use are analyzed. Bibl. 12, Fig. 2.
