Achieving high efficiency thermoelectric heating and cooling with metal foam heat exchangers

This thesis examines the development of a high efficiency heat pump system using thermoelectric (TE) and reticulated metal foam (RMF) technologies to power a vehicle`s battery thermal management system. The focus is split into two areas: first a review of TE???s sourcing or removing heat, second...
