Abstract :
In this paper, operator-based nonlinear temperature control for Cooling and Heat-retention System actuated by Peltier device is proposed. The main purpose is to construct a system which can use energy effectively with waste heat from Peltier device. Moreover, temperature control about the executing cooling and heat-retention is conducted simultaneously. An operator based nonlinear control system is designed. In order to save energy, air flow rate control of fan-motor is considered. The effectiveness of the designed control system is shown by a simulation.
