Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book outlines the principles of thermoelectric generation and refrigeration from the discovery of the Seebeck and Peltier effects in the 19th century through the introduction of semiconductor thermoelements in the mid-20th century to the more recent development of nanostructured materials. The conditions for favourable electronic properties are discussed. The methods for selecting materials with a low lattice thermal conductivity are outlined and the ways in which the scattering of phonons can be enhanced are described. The book is aimed at readers without specialised knowledge.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Introduction to Thermoelectricity is the latest work by Professor Julian Goldsmid drawing on his 55 years experience in the field. The theory of the thermoelectric and related phenomena is presented in sufficient detail to enable researchers to understand their observations and develop improved thermoelectric materials. The methods for the selection of materials and their improvement are discussed. Thermoelectric materials for use in refrigeration and electrical generation are reviewed. Experimental techniques for the measurement of properties and for the production of thermoelements are described. Special emphasis is placed on nanotechnology which promises to yield great improvements in the efficiency of thermoelectric devices. Chapters are also devoted to transverse thermoelectric effects and thermionic energy conversion, both techniques offering the promise of important applications in the future.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 260 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This second edition is acomprehensive introduction to all aspects of thermoelectric energy conversion.It covers both theory and practice. The book is timely as it refers to the manyimprovements that have come about in the last few years through the use ofnanostructures. The concept of semiconductor thermoelements led to majoradvances during the second half of the twentieth century, making Peltier refrigerationa widely used technique. The latest materials herald thermoelectric generationas the preferred technique for exploiting low-grade heat. The book shows howprogress has been made by increasing the thermal resistivity of the latticeuntil it is almost as large as it is for glass. It points the way towards theattainment of similar improvements in the electronic parameters. It does notneglect practical considerations, such as the desirability of makingthermocouples from inexpensive and environmentally acceptable materials. Thesecond edition was extended to also include recent advances in thermoelectricenergy conversion, particularly the production of bulk nanostructures, newmaterials with higher thermoelectric figures to use the possibility of largescale thermoelectric generation, as part of the worldwide strategy for makingbetter use of energy resources. This book guides the newcomertowards the state of the art and shows the principles for further advancementto those who are already familiar with the subject. The author has been able todraw on his long experience to cover the science and technology in a balancedway while drawing on the expertise of others who have made major contributionsto the field.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 296 pp. Englisch.
