Peltiertermostaatit
Peltiertermostaatit, also known as Peltier thermostats or thermoelectric coolers (TECs), are solid-state devices that transfer heat from one side to the other when an electric current is applied. This phenomenon is based on the Peltier effect, discovered by Jean Charles Athanase Peltier in 1834. A Peltier device consists of two dissimilar semiconductor materials, typically bismuth telluride, connected by a metal conductor. When a DC voltage is applied, one side of the device becomes cold and the other becomes hot. This allows for both heating and cooling by reversing the current.
Peltier thermostats find applications in various fields due to their compact size, lack of moving parts, and
