| The Main Case deals with thermoelectric cooling. Thermoelectric processes result from the coupling of flows of charge and entropy. Peltier devices can be used to cool objects by applying a voltage to the device, i.e., heat is removed from a body in touch with the Peltier device by driving this device electrically. Applications range from electronics to medicine. | Main Case |
| Thermal phenomena open up a wealth of real-life applications of dynamical processes. Heat transfer in natural, technical and environmental settings, and energy engineering are just the tip of the iceberg. Here are suggestions for studying the flow of heat in the Earth, energy storage in phase change materials, solar chimneys for electric power plants, or a simple model of the atmosphere that explains the power of the winds. | Further
