Solid-state cooling systems use a thermoelectric module, which is a semiconductor-based component, soldered between 2 ceramic plates, with a sandwich-type structure filled with bismuth telluride particles and doped to obtain N-P junctions. When DC power is applied to a thermoelectric module, heat transfer is initiated from one side of the module to another. Thus, one of the module faces is cooled while the opposite face is simultaneously heated. This phenomenon can be reversed by changing the polarity (plus and minus) of the applied voltage. Consequently, thermoelectric modules are used for both heating and cooling, thereby making them highly suitable for precise temperature control applications.
The global solid-state cooling market is estimated to be valued at USD 395 million in 2019 and is projected to reach USD 641 million by 2024, at a CAGR of 10.2%. Growing awareness of green energy and increasing focus on curbing greenhouse gas emissions, simultaneous heating and cooling properties of solid-state cooling systems and rising demand for precise temperature control and below ambient cooling are the major drivers for the solid-state cooling market.
