Abstract
The present disclosure is related to thermoelectric panels and their use in cooling and heating systems. The cooling/heating systems may include a cylindrical plurality of thermoelectric panels. The panels may include thermoelectric devices embedded between a housing formed by heat conductive layers and edge structures for preserve a low thermal conductivity volume.
Claims12
A thermoelectric apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
- a curved surface comprising:
- a first curved surface layer having an inner side and an outer side, wherein the first curved surface layer prevents diffusion of gasses and is thermally conductive;
- a plurality of curved surface thermoelectric devices disposed on the inner side of the first curved surface layer;
- a second curved surface layer having an inner side and an outer side, wherein the second curved surface layer prevents diffusion of gasses and is thermally conductive, the plurality of thermoelectric devices is disposed on the inner side of the second curved surface layer, and the second curved surface layer is curved to maintain a fixed distance between the first curved surface layer and the second curved surface layer;
- a plurality of edge structures connected to the first curved surface layer and the second curved surface layer to form a volume between the first curved surface layer, the second curved surface layer, and the plurality of edge structures, wherein each of the edge structures comprises:
- a u-shaped housing of thermal insulation;
- a gas diffusion resistant layer disposed on the u-shaped housing;
- and
- a plurality of thermally non-conductive pillars disposed within the u-shaped housing between parallel sides of the u-shaped housing;
- and
- wherein the second curved surface layer forms a cylinder-shape with a first end and a second end and comprising at least one of a thermally nonconductive removable cap and thermally nonconductive nonremovable base disposed on each of the first end and the second end, and wherein the second curved surface layer and the thermally nonconductive cap or base on first and second ends form a closed system.
