  2. Thermoelectric cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_cooling

    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 ...

  3. Thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_generator

    A thermoelectric generator ( TEG ), also called a Seebeck generator, is a solid state device that converts heat (driven by temperature differences) directly into electrical energy through a phenomenon called the Seebeck effect [ 1] (a form of thermoelectric effect ). Thermoelectric generators function like heat engines, but are less bulky and ...

  4. Vaneless ion wind generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaneless_ion_wind_generator

    Sustainable energy. A vaneless ion wind generator or power fence is a device that generates electrical energy by using the wind to move charged particles across an electric field . Ion wind generators are not commercially available, though working prototypes and proofs of concept have been created.

  5. Ion wind - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_wind

    An electrostatic pinwheel, or corona spinner, attached to a small Wimshurst machine (electrostatic generator) is shown stationary and rotating. Ion wind, ionic wind, corona wind or electric wind is the airflow of charged particles induced by electrostatic forces linked to corona discharge arising at the tips of some sharp conductors (such as points or blades) subjected to high voltage relative ...

  6. Electric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

    This radiant heater uses tungsten halogen lamps. Electric heating is a process in which electrical energy is converted directly to heat energy. Common applications include space heating, cooking, water heating and industrial processes. An electric heater is an electrical device that converts an electric current into heat. [ 1]

  7. Thermoelectric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect

    v. t. e. The thermoelectric effect is the direct conversion of temperature differences to electric voltage and vice versa via a thermocouple. [ 1] A thermoelectric device creates a voltage when there is a different temperature on each side. Conversely, when a voltage is applied to it, heat is transferred from one side to the other, creating a ...

  8. Auxiliary power unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auxiliary_power_unit

    An auxiliary power unit ( APU) is a device on a vehicle that provides energy for functions other than propulsion. They are commonly found on large aircraft and naval ships as well as some large land vehicles. Aircraft APUs generally produce 115 V AC voltage at 400 Hz (rather than 50/60 Hz in mains supply), to run the electrical systems of the ...

  9. Brownout (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownout_(electricity)

    The heat output of any resistive device, such as an electric space heater, is equal to the power consumption, which is directly proportional to the square of the applied voltage if the resistance stays constant. Therefore, a significant reduction of heat output will occur with a relatively small reduction in voltage.
