THERMOELECTRIC ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL UNIT

Abstract

An engineering design program was conducted for a Thermoelectric environmental control unit. The unit capacity is 24,000 BTU/hr. in the cooling mode when operating in 120 F ambient air. The unit is self contained, transportable and includes power conversion and automatic thermostatic control for both cooling and heating. The final design is a result of design studies to optimize over-all system performance consistent with volume, weight, and cost considerations.
