2. Self-regulating heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-regulating_heater

   A positive-temperature-coefficient heating element (PTC heating element), or self-regulating heater, is an electrical resistance heater whose resistance increases significantly with temperature. The name self-regulating heater comes from the tendency of such heating elements to maintain a constant temperature when supplied by a given voltage.

3. Ceramic heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_heater

   A ceramic heater as a consumer product is a space heater that generates heat using a heating element of ceramic with a positive temperature coefficient (PTC). [1] [2] [failed verification] Ceramic heaters are usually portable and typically used for heating a room or small office, and are of similar utility to metal-element fan heaters.

4. Heating element - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_element

   A heating element is a device used for conversion of electric energy into heat, consisting of a heating resistor and accessories. [1] Heat is generated by the passage of electric current through a resistor through a process known as Joule heating. Heating elements are used in household appliances, industrial equipment, and scientific ...

5. Thermistor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermistor

   A degaussing circuit using a PTC thermistor is simple, reliable (for its simplicity), and inexpensive. As heaters, in the automotive industry, to provide cabin heating (in addition to heating provided by a heat pump or the waste heat of an internal combustion engine), or to heat diesel fuel in cold conditions before engine injection.

6. Heating film - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_film

   A heating film, itself, is a variation of the modern ondol, but it doesn't require hot water and pipes as it is fully electric. There are also many variations of this underfloor heating system, as many underfloor heaters are based on PTC heating element, far-infrared rays, carbon film, or cables, etc. [6]

7. Thermoelectric cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_cooling

   Thermoelectric cooling uses the Peltier effect to create a heat flux at the junction of two different types of materials. A Peltier cooler, heater, or thermoelectric heat pump is a solid-state active heat pump which transfers heat from one side of the device to the other, with consumption of electrical energy, depending on the direction of the current.
