    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to controlling multiple Thermoelectric Coolers (TECs) to maintain a set point temperature of a chamber. In one embodiment, a controller receives temperature data corresponding to a temperature of the chamber. Based on the temperature data, the controller selectively controls two or more subsets of the TECs to maintain the temperature of the chamber at a desired set point temperature. In this manner, the controller is enabled to control the TECs such that the TECs operate to efficiently maintain the temperature of the chamber at the set point temperature. In another embodiment, the controller selects one or more control schemes enabled by the controller based on temperature data and a desired performance profile. The controller then independently controls one or more subsets of the TECs according to the selected control scheme(s).

    Abstract: A thermoelectric refrigeration system includes a heat exchanger that includes a cold side heat sink and a hot side heat sink. The thermoelectric refrigeration system also includes a heat exchange loop coupled to one of the cold side heat sink and the hot side heat sink, the heat exchange loop operating according to thermosiphon principles to provide passive two-phase transport of a working fluid through the heat exchange loop. The thermoelectric refrigeration system also includes thermal insulation that thermally insulates the heat exchanger from a cooling chamber of the thermoelectric refrigeration system or an environment that is external to the thermoelectric refrigeration system.

    Abstract: A heat pump includes a SAS structure with a wall defining a first open side and a second open side. The heat pump also includes an interconnect board, enclosed within the SAS structure including openings. Thermoelectric modules are mounted on the interconnect board at the locations defined by the openings. The heat pump additionally includes a hot-side heat spreader that is in thermal contact with the first side of each thermoelectric module and a cold-side heat spreader that is in thermal contact with the second side of each thermoelectric module. The periphery of the hot-side heat spreader mechanically contacts the wall of the SAS structure at the first open side, and the periphery of the cold-side heat spreader mechanically contacts the wall of the SAS structure at the second open side such that any compression force applied to the heat pump is absorbed by the SAS structure.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein include a cascade Thermoelectric Module (TEM) that includes at least three headers. A first header and a first surface of a second header electrically connect first legs to form a stage of thermoelectric devices electrically connected in series, and define first and second leg placement positions for a subset of the first legs. A second surface of the second header and a third header electrically connect second legs to form another stage of thermoelectric devices electrically connected in series, and define first and second leg placement positions for a subset of the second legs. The stages are electrically coupled in series when the subsets of the first and second legs are positioned in their respective first leg placement positions, and the stages are electrically decoupled when the subsets of the first and second legs are positioned in their respective second leg placement positions.
