Extraction of Temperature-Dependent Thermoelectric Material Parameters of a Thermoelectric Cooler by the Non-Linear Least Squares Method

This paper presents a method of extracting temperature-dependent parameters of thermoelectric material from the operating conditions of thermoelectric cooler (TEC). Based on the finite element method of calculating TEC’s performance, non-linear least squares method is used for extracting t...
