• Review of Peltier and Resistive Heating Elements through Infrared Imaging 

      Taimur, Madiha; Rashid, Taimur; Khawaja, Hassan Abbas (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2016-12-08)
      The study includes the review of the heating elements to develop the fundamental understanding. The heating elements to be investigated are Peltier and Resistive types. Both have different working principles and they are used in various industrial applications for cooling and heating purposes. The Infrared (IR) wavelength is emitted by each object at a temperature above absolute zero. IR light is ...

      Rashid, Taimur; Liang, Hsin-Ling; Taimur, Madiha; Chiodarelli, Nicolò; Khawaja, Hassan; Edvardsen, Kåre; De Volder, Michael (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-27)
      Carbon nanotube (CNT) films are gaining traction in applications such as transparent conductive films, electro-magnetic shields and thin film heaters. However, to date, few cost-effective large-area CNT coating methods have been reported. Here, we present a roll-to-roll (R2R) slot-die coating process for thin film CNT heaters. In this process, a CNT suspension is continuously coated on a PET film ...
    • Thermal analysis of PTC heaters. Thermography of PTC and Peltier heaters. Labview® based control and Matlab® Simulink simulations of PTC heaters. 

      Taimur, Madiha (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-06-15)
      A large variety of heating devices are being used in the industry. Two widely used smart heating devices are discussed in this study. These heating devices are Peltier/thermoelectric (TE) and Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) resistive heater. This study provides detailed experimentation of PTC heater and Peltier device at room conditions and cold environment. The thermal response of both ...
