TY - JOUR AU - Prybyla, A. AB - The anisotropic thermoelement (AT) has been studied in generation and cooling modes. A procedure to account for temperature dependences of material kinetic coefficients has been elaborated. The distributions of physical fields in the anisotropic thermoelement have been found. The efficiency and electromotive force (EMF) of the anisotropic thermoelement in the EMF and current generation modes have been calculated. Maximum temperature difference values, cooling capacities, and coefficients of performance have been determined for cooling mode with the use of Bi and CdSb materials.
