Expert rues lack of research on Peltier effect

DARBHANGA: Aeronautical Development Agency’s former director Manas Bihari Verma on Tuesday lamented that no research was being carried out in the universities of Bihar to devise ways to effectively utilize the Peltier effect for practical purposes. It is an electric current-driven transfer of heat from one material to another and can be used in devices like computers, refrigerators, medical equipment, missile launching and several scientific apparatuses.
