Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods are provided for cooling and heating in a vehicle. A thermoelectric cooling system can include a heatsink in thermal communication with an exterior of a vehicle, thermoelectric cells within the vehicle mounted to the heatsink, and a power supply electrically connected to the one or more thermoelectric cells. In response to receiving power from the power supply, the thermoelectric cells produce a temperature difference to draw heat from the vehicle in to the heatsink. Cooling a vehicle cabin can include receiving a desired temperature and a current temperature of a vehicle cabin, determining a temperature difference between the desired temperature and the current temperature, and, based on determining the temperature difference indicates the desired temperature is lower than the current temperature, causing thermoelectric cells to receive power so the thermoelectric cells produce a temperature difference to draw heat from the vehicle cabin in to the heatsink.
