This document summarizes a project that aims to develop an atmospheric water generator using thermoelectric cooling. The system uses Peltier devices powered by solar energy to condense water vapor in the air into liquid water. It consists of cooling elements, a heat exchange unit, and an air circulation unit. Peltier couples use the Peltier effect to transfer heat from one side to the other when a current is passed through, allowing one side to get cooler while the other gets hotter. This temperature difference can be used to condense atmospheric moisture into water droplets. The condensed water is then collected for drinking or other uses. The goal is to experimentally achieve the dew point temperature needed to condense water using this setup

Abstract The device uses the principle of latent heat to convert
water vapour molecules into water droplets. In many In many countries like India it is difficult to obtain countries like India, there are many places which are water resources for irrigation or other purposes, situated in temperate region; there are desert, rain especially in the arid regions. The problem of water forest areas and even flooded areas where scarcity is also observed in other places of the world atmospheric humidity is eminent. But resources of due to lack of rainfall. However, in highly humid water are limited. In the past few years some projects areas such as places close to the sea, water can be have already been done to establish the concept of air obtained by condensing the water vapour present in condensation as well as generation of water with the air. Here, the paper presents the method to develop help of peltier devices, such as harvesting water for a water condensation system based on young trees using Peltier plates that are powered by thermoelectric cooler. The system consists of photovoltaic solar energy [2], etc. So, this project will cooling elements, heat exchange unit and air be helping to extend the applications of such devices circulation unit. A solar cell panel unit with a further in the near future. According to previous relevant high current output drives the cooling knowledge, we know that the temperature require to elements through a controlling circuit. Atmospheric condense water is known as dew point temperature. Water Generator is a device that can convert Here, the goal is to obtain that specific temperature atmospheric moisture directly into usable and even practically or experimentally to condense water with drinkable water. It is such a device which uses the the help of some electronics devices. This project principle of latent heat to convert molecules of consists of a thermoelectric peltier (TEC) couple [3], water vapour into water droplets. It has been which is used to create the environment of water introduced a bit before, though it is not very condensing temperature or dew point, indeed common in India and some other countries. It has a conventional compressor and evaporator system great application standing on such age of could also be used to condense water by simply technology where we all are running behind exchanging the latent heat of coolant inside the renewable sources. This paper also describes the evaporator. The condensed water will be collected to experimental results and the system’s performance. use for drinking purpose and various other uses.
Keywords Peltier couple:
The peltier thermoelectric device [4] has two sides( a Water condensation, Thermoelectric peltier, Dew p-type and an n-type semiconductor), and when DC condensation (latent heat), Solar energy. current flows through the device, it brings heat from one side to other, so that one side gets cooler while 1. Introduction the opposite one gets hotter. This is called Peltier effect and electron hole theory. Peltier coolers consist Atmosphere contains large amount of water in the of a Peltier element and a powerful heat sink/fan form of vapour, moisture etc. Within those amounts combination. Peltier elements come in various forms almost 30% of water is wasted. This amount of water and shapes. Typically, they consist of a larger amount can be used by implementing a device like of thermocouples arranged in rectangular form and Atmospheric Water Generator [1]. This device is packaged between two thin ceramic plates. This type capable of converting atmospheric moisture directly of device is so powerful that it can freeze good into usable and even drinking water. amount of the water within several minutes.
