  • Abstract
    Present paper gives a picture of a conceptual design of an air conditioner using Peltier modules to achieve desired amount of cooling. The appearance of this thermoelectric type of air conditioner resembles a conventional window air conditioner. This brings the simplicity in construction. The air conditioner is intended to take up the cooling load in volume of space as in conventional automobiles such as cars. If conventional vapour compression type of air conditioner currently used in vehicles is replaced with this one with an arrangement for its placement, it would reduce the total weight of vehicle and increase fuel economy.
