2.1. Componen s
The de ailed speci ica ions o each sys em componen a e as
ollowings.
(1) TEC module
The moelec ic coole (TEC) e e s o a solid-s a e semicon-
duc o de ice which is noise ee, en i onmen ally iendly, and
ope a ional and main enance cos - ee, and. Basically, a single
uni o TEC consis s o an n- ype and p- ype TE legs whe e TE legs
a e connec ed elec ically in se ies and he mally in pa allel. TEC
equi es less ol age and cu en compa ed o ypical e ige a o .
The e o e, he pe o mance depends on he powe supply o
TEC. Mo eo e , he powe densi y equi ed by he adi ional
e ige a ion sys em is much lowe han TEC due o i s small
size compa ed o ypical e ige a ion and powe equi emen .
In addi ion, he maximum he mal e iciency o TEC is less han
10% (Liu e al.,2014b). Howe e , his low he mal e iciency can
be use ul o many small applica ions specially whe e he e is
a was e o hea ene gy o access hea needs o be managed o

The e o e, TEC can be a sui able candida e o ba e y he mal
managemen sys em o he elec ic/hyb id ehicles. The design
o he TEC module is a combina ion o he hea sink, o ced ai
cooling, and liquid cooling (see Fig. 1). This design adop s wo
TECs connec in se ial o cool down he luid low. Each o hem
has 127 couples be ween wo ce amic pla es in he sandwiched

maximum empe a u e di e ence up o 68 ◦C. The hea amoun
passed om he cold side and gene a ed in e nal he TECs is
qui e la ge. Acco dingly, an aluminum hea sink is placed on he
ho end o he TEC modules o emo e he hea imely om
he TEC. Mo eo e , wo ans a e ins alled on he o he side o
his aluminum hea sink o accele a e he hea dissipa ion o he
ambien . The a ed powe supply o DC b ushless ans is 12 V a
0.3 A.
On he cold side o each TEC, he e is an aluminum block wi h
a U shape luid channel p epa ed. Du ing he ope a ion o he
sys em, he hea will be passed quickly om he coolan o his
cold side. The aluminum block and TEC a e clamped o he hea

In hese expe imen s, he ba e y hea gene a ion p ocess was
modeled by a ca idge hea e and simula ed ba e y. The eason
