In order to improve the thermal comfort of passengers, the thermoelectric cooling climate-controlled seats were set in the passenger cabin. In this study, thermoelectric cooler units’ cooling performance is studied by experiment method. The heat and flow field of the bus cabin are analyzed in four d...
