Abstract

From the first application of a thermoelectric module to nowtoday, it has been more than half a century. The application of a thermoelectric module is becoming more and more widely accepted since, people's requirement rely more and more on the efficiency of thermoelectric modules and their reliability become higher and higher. So people pay more and more attention to the thermoelectric module. In Around the world, the more research for into improving the efficiency of thermoelectric modules is focused on the current materials. at present. However, the research of into available materials had has some limitations, and the research of materials had reached a bottleneckthere are limits to current applications. On the other hand, from the production process, if we assembled by materials withoutmodules without any damages and achieve the ideal state of a joint, we can make the a product to maximize performance and have a longer service life. SoTherefore, in this study we will prove the relationship between the any defects inside and the efficiency of a thermoelectric module to improve the quality management and performance of modern thermoelectric modules at present.
