PELTIER EFFECT
INTRODUCTION
The !eltier?)eebeck effect@ or thermoelectric effect@ is the direct
conversion of thermal differentials to electric voltage and vice versa. Related
effects are the Thomson effect and Joule heating. The !eltier?)eebeck and
Thomson effects are reversible (in fact@ the !eltier and )eebeck effects are
reversals of one another6 Joule heating cannot be reversible under the la*s
of thermodynamics.
Seebeck effect
The )eebeck effect is the conversion of temperature differences directly into
electricity. This effect *as first discovered@ accidentally@ by the Aerman
physicist Thomas Johann )eebeck in 1921@ *ho found that a voltage e,isted
bet*een t*o ends of a metal bar *hen a temperature difference BT e,isted
in the bar.
=e also discovered that a compass needle *ould be deflected *hen a closed
loop *as formed of t*o metals *ith a temperature difference bet*een the-unctions. This is because the metals respond differently to the temperature
difference@ *hich creates a current loop@ *hich produces a magnetic field.
The effect is that a voltage@ the thermoelectric "3@ is created in the
presence of a temperature difference bet*een t*o different metals or
semiconductors. This causes a continuous current to flo* in the conductors
if they form a complete loop. The voltage created is of the order of several
microvolts per degree difference.

kno*n temperature. )everal thermocouples in series are called a thermopile.
This is also the principle at *ork behind thermal diodes and thermoelectric

The )eebeck effect is due to t*o effects4 charge carrier diffusion and phonon
drag. $f both connections are held at the same temperature@ but one
connection is periodically opened and closed@ an C voltage is measured@
*hich is also temperature dependent. This application of the Gelvin probe is
sometimes used to argue that the underlying physics does only need one
-unction. nd this effect is still visible if the *ires only come close@ but do
not touch@ thus no diffusion is needed.
The!"#"$e
The thermopo*er@ or thermoelectric po*er@ or )eebeck coefficient of a
material is a measure of the magnitude of an induced thermoelectric voltage
in response to a temperature difference across that material. The
thermopo*er has units of (0 / G. The term thermopo*er is a misnomersince it measures the voltage or electric field (not the electric po*er
induced in response to a temperature difference. n applied temperature
difference causes charged carriers in the material@ *hether they are electrons
or holes@ to diffuse from the hot side to the cold side@ similar to a classical
gas that e,pands *hen heated. obile charged carriers migrating to the cold
side leave behind their oppositely charged and immobile nuclei at the hot
side thus giving rise to a thermoelectric voltage (thermoelectric refers to the
fact that the voltage is created by a temperature difference. )ince a
separation of charges also creates an electric potential@ the buildup ofcharged carriers onto the cold side eventually ceases at some ma,imum
value since there e,ists an eDual amount of charged carriers drifting back to
the hot side as a result of the electric field at eDuilibrium. 'nly an increase in
the temperature difference can resume a buildup of more charge carriers on
the cold side and thus lead to an increase in the thermoelectric voltage.
$ncidentally the thermopo*er also measures the entropy per charge carrier in
the material.

Thermoelectric coolers are solid state heat pumps used in applications *here

("$ the The!"e)ectic *"k+ , , ,
Thermoelectrics are based on the !eltier "ffect@ discovered in 19+@ by
*hich C current applied across t*o dissimilar materials causes a
temperature differential. The !eltier "ffect is one of the three thermoelectric
effects@ the other t*o are kno*n as the )eebeck "ffect and Thomson "ffect.
:hereas the last t*o effects act on a single conductor@ the !eltier "ffect is a

converts alternating current to respect to the cathode@ it is reverse biased and
does not allo* current to flo*. This unidirectional property of the diode is
useful for rectification. single diode arranged back8to8back might allo*
the electrons to flo* during positive half cycles only and suppress the
negative half cycles. ouble diodes arranged back8to8back might act as full

negative half cycles. 3our diodes can be arranged to make a full *ave bridge
rectifier. ifferent types of filter circuits are used to smooth out the
pulsations in amplitude of the output voltage from a rectifier. The property
of capacitor to oppose any change in the voltage applied across them by
storing energy in the electric field of the capacitor and of inductors to oppose
any change in the current flo*ing through them by storing energy in themagnetic field of coil may be utiliHed. To remove pulsation of the direct
current obtained from the rectifier@ different types of combination of
capacitor@ inductors and resistors may be also be used to increase to action of

TRANSFORMER
PRINCIPLE OF THE TRANSFORMER:-

9/13
Two coils are wound over a Core such that they are
magnetically coupled. The two coils are known as the
primary and secondary windings.
In a Transformer,an iron core is used. The couplingbetween the coils is source of making a path for the
magnetic ux to link both the coils. A core as in g.2 is used
and the coils are wound on the limbs of the core. ecause of
high permeability of iron! the ux path for the ux is only in
the iron and hence the ux links both windings. "ence there
is very little #leakage ux$. This term leakage ux denotes
the part of the ux! which does not link both the coils! i.e.!
when coupling is not perfect. %n the high fre&uency
transformers! ferrite core is used. The transformers may be
step'up! step'down! fre&uency matching! sound output!
amplier driver etc. The basic principles of all the
transformers are same.
