Comparing Three Methods for Controlling Temperature in Order to Optimize Energy Performance and Consumption in a Novel Thermoelectric Vaccine Carrier

Millions of bucks are annually wasted as a result of improper preservation of vaccines. One reason may be visualized in limited availability of the equipment for an entire cold chain. In this regard, an efficient thermoelectric carrier may be introduced so as to carry vaccine in parts of cold chain. Considering limited power source in a portable set, optimization of thermoelectric system performance is of a great importance in order to achieve an efficient cooling. The present paper aimed at optimizing the thermoelectric system by altering temperature control method to be adopted in a novel thermoelectric vaccine carrier.
