Thermoelectric auto-refrigerators

Thermoelectric car refrigerators operate based on the Peltier effect, in which an electric current passes through semiconductor elements, creating a temperature difference. These refrigerators do not have complex mechanical components such as a compressor, which makes them more reliable and less prone to breakdowns, and also reduces noise levels.

There are two heat exchangers installed inside them: one on the inside (to cool the contents) and one on the outside (to remove heat). Semiconductor elements are located between them. When electric current passes through these elements, one side cools and the other heats up. Fans help remove heat from the hot side and distribute the cold inside the refrigerator.

Features of operation

Thermoelectric car refrigerators are easy to use and can be connected to a 12 V vehicle network. Their design is simple and ensures compact dimensions and light weight of the device, which is convenient for carrying and installation in any vehicle. However, they are less efficient than compressor engines when operating in extremely high ambient temperatures, since their cooling capacity is limited by the temperature difference between the internal and external circuits of the system.

The main purpose of thermoelectric refrigerators – Keeping food and drinks at moderate temperatures during road trips, picnics, camping and outdoor recreation. They are ideal for short-term use of one or several days. Such devices easily maintain temperatures that keep food fresh and drinks cool in the summer.

Advantages of thermoelectric refrigerators for cars

There are several important advantages of using this type of device:

1. Simplicity of design: The absence of moving parts makes these refrigerators more reliable and durable.
2. Lightness and compactness: Small size and weight make it easy to carry and install the refrigerator in any convenient place in the car.
3. Efficiency: Thermoelectric refrigerators are usually cheaper than their compressor counterparts and consume less energy.
4. Multifunctionality: Many models can not only cool, but also heat products, which expands the scope of their use. That is, they can even be used in cold weather to maintain the temperature of a hot lunch or in food delivery.
