Definitions

Imax Input current resulting in greatest DT (DTmax) [Amps]
Qmax Maximum amount of heat that can be absorbed at cold face (occurs at I=Imax, DT = 0°C) [Watts]
TH Temperature of the TEC hot face during operation [°C]
ΔTmax Maximum temperature difference a TEC can achieve (occurs at I=Imax, Qc = 0) [°C]
Vmax Voltage at DT (DTmax) [Volts]
