Formula

The Peltier heat (Peltier effect) formula
Q
the Peltier heat absorbed by the lower junction per unit time
PiA
the Peltier coefficient of material A
PiB
the Peltier coefficient of material B
I
the current flowing through the junction

Formula description

When current is passed through a junction of two different metals, the heat is either evolved or absorbed at the junction. This effect is known as Peltier effect. It is the reverse of Seebeck effect. (When a positive charge flows from high potential to low potential, it releases energy and when positive charge flows from low potential to high potential it absorbs energy).
