This study presents an innovative concept of a compact integrated solar-thermoelectric module that can form part of the building envelope. The heating/cooling modes use the photovoltaic electrical current to power the heat pump. The experimental analysis was carried out and the results of coefficient of performance were in the range 0.5-1 and 2.6-5 for cooling and heating functions, respectively. The study demonstrates that thermoelectric cooler can effectively be used for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning applications by integrating with solar panels especially in cooling applications. The system is environmentally friendly and can contribute in the implementation of zero energy buildings concept. Practical application: In order to help address the challenge of climate change and associated environmental effects, there is continuous demand for new technologies and applications that can be readily integrated into day-today life as a means of reducing anthropogenic impact. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, as one of the largest energy consumers in buildings, is the focus of many researchers seeking to reduce building energy use and environmental impact. This article proposes using facades and windows that have an integrated modules of solar photovoltaic cells and thermoelectric devices that are able to work together to achieve heating and cooling effects as required by the building without requiring any external operational power.

“…In a cold storage system, an adsorption principle was adopted with Zeolite and water as working pair with the Coefficient of performance (COP) of 0.18 to 0.21 and cooling power of 3.0 to 4.2 KW [10]. Dual power source refrigerator is developed by combined solar thermoelectric adsorption air cooler with activated carbon-methanol as working pair [11]. An effort was made to develop a refrigerator operates on the multi-stage adsorption method, which was several times larger than the conventional type and it is highly impossible to fit in the passenger cabin of automobile [12].…”

The objective of this article is to design and build a bio-friendly air-conditioner, by using adsorption method in the presence of 15% of calcium carbide in water. Aluminum sheet metals are used to form three identical tunnels, to pass the air for processing. Exhaust heat generated from the dairy sterilizing unit process is reutilized, for cooling the environment through this equipment. This equipment is designed, and the analysis is carried out to quantify the COP, SCP, and cooling power. Heat exchangers are designed; its Performance Parameters are quantified and correlated with the conventional designs. It is observed that the new adsorption chiller can produce the coefficient of performance of chiller as 1.068; the Specific cooling power of 10.66 (W/Kg); and the Cooling power of 4.2 KW. This equipment needs 0 to 15 minutes to reach the desired cool breeze (24˚c) from the existing room temperature (29˚c).
