本文研究了热电器件在提高传统蒸汽压缩空调系统性能方面的应用。热电设备能够以非常高的效率将电能转化为热泵。本文利用一个经过验证的风冷式换热器模拟工具，研究了在翅片和管子之间添加热电器件对强化换热的影响。在此基础上，利用经过验证的系统仿真工具研究了利用热电装置增加冷凝器出口制冷剂过冷度的效果。这项研究是针对几种使用各种制冷剂的制冷和空调应用进行的。
This paper investigates the application of thermoelectric devices to enhance the performance of conventional vapor compression based air conditioning systems. Thermoelectric devices are capable of converting electrical energy into thermal heat-pumping at a very high efficiency. In this paper, a validated air-cooled heat exchanger simulation tool is used to study the effect of adding thermoelectric devices between the fins and tubes to enhance heat transfer. Further, a validated system simulation tool is used to study the effect of using a thermoelectric device to increase the refrigerant sub-cooling at the outlet of a condenser. The study is conducted for several refrigeration and airconditioning applications with various refrigerants.
