New design for thermoelectric heat pumps achieves higher output, coefficient of performance

Scientists in the United Kingdom have proposed to combine residential thermoelectric heat pumps with heat storage tanks and have found this solution offers a higher heat output, a higher coefficient of performance, and shorter heating time. They stressed that thermoelectric heat pumps are easily combinable with DC photovoltaic energy.Researchers at Durham University in the United Kingdom have proposed a new design for thermoelectric heat pumps (TeHPs) that reportedly exploits all the advantages this heat pump technology offers, especially when applied in residential buildings. They explained that ...
