摘要
In this paper the uncertainty evaluation of the recently proposed Unified Method for Thermo-Electric Module characterization is carried out. The measurement model is detailed and individual uncertainty contributions are highlighted, with close reference to the instrumentation and measurement setup. The uncertainty evaluation is performed by means of a Monte Carlo Simulation. The same algorithm is used to perform a sensitivity analysis, giving a comprehensive insight into the most critical issues of the proposed method and assessing the performance of the two adopted electrical stimuli. The experimental results thereby obtained are discussed and improvements to the measurement setup and technique are finally proposed. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
