Abstract
The thermoelectric effects in thermal converters have characteristic time-constants which can be evaluated from fast-reversed DC (FRDC) measurements. A numerical simulation for the FRDC measurement was performed to evaluate the relationship between the time-constants and the location of the thermoelectric effects on the length of the heater.
