One-dimensional analysis of thermoelement exposed to lateral heat transfer as a wall in MEMS-based thermoelectrically controlled micronozzle

Two thermoelements are formed as walls of a micronozzle to perform heating-cooling on a gas flowing between them. The model of heat transfer by conduction opposites to Peltier effect is built, including Joule heating, Seebeck effect and heat dissipation to the flowing gas. A general energy equati...
