Abstract: The work of thermoelectric heat transfer intensifier is analyzed in the paper. Criteria for the efficiency of such intensifiers are given. The advantage of using a thermoelectric cooler is evaluated depending on the temperature difference on the heat sink when applied without a thermoelectric module. It is shown that in many cases a thermoelectric cooler cannot intensify heat transfer. In case a thermoelectric cooler is used to reduce the object temperature, it is also necessary to reduce the heat sink thermal resistance.

Keywords: thermoelectric cooler, heat exchange, intensifier, efficiency.
