The performance characteristic curves between the cooling rate and the coefficient of performance are plotted by numerical calculation. It is shown that the maximum cooling rate of the thermoelectric refrigerator with two resonances increases but the maximum coefficient of performance decreases compared with those with one resonance. No matter which resonance mechanism is used (kx or kr filtered), the cooling rate and the performance coefficient of the kr filtered refrigerator are much better than those of the kx filtered one.展开更多
The χ-criterion is defined as the product of the energy conversion efficiency and the heat absorbed per unit time by the working substance [de Tom′as et al., Phys. Rev. E 85(2012) 010104(R)].

E 85(2012) 010104(R)]. The χ-criterion for Feynman ratchet as a refrigerator operating between two heat baths is optimized. Asymptotic solutions of the coefficient of performance at maximum χ-criterion for Feynman ratchet are investigated at both large and small temperature difference. An interpolation formula, which fits the numerical solution very well, is proposed. Besides, the sufficient condition for the universality of the coefficient of performance at maximum χ is investigated.展开更多

The mathematical model of convection diathermanous coefficient has been put forward. It is considered in the model that the parameters of wind speed , car speed , temperature of car surface , temperature of surroundings , etc. If the boundary conditions and parameters used in calculation model of convection transmits heat coefficient are confinned as following: the cold plank car velocity Vis 120 km/h, and air temperature is 25 ℃, and the atmosphere press is 1013250 Pa, and wind velocity Viis 10 m/s, and the length of car bodywork Lis 5 m, and bodywork surface temperature is 25 ℃. The results were obtained by the model: when the wind velocity direction is the same as car velocity, the coefficient Kof convection transmits heat is 51.4(W· m^-2· K^-1 ), and when the wind velocity direction is against the car velocity, K is 90.58 (W ·m^-2· K^-1).展开更多
