A dual cap for protecting a humidity sensor of a radiosonde of an aerological observation system includes an outer cap and an inner cap. The dual cap surrounds the humidity sensor. The outer cap has an outer ventilation hole formed in its top, and an outer air circulation opening formed in its side periphery. The side periphery of the outer cap also has a first wall that acts as a barrier to air flow. The inner cap is affixed to and is disposed inside of the outer cap. A ceiling of the inner cap faces the outer ventilation hole so as to impose a barrier to air flow. The inner cap further has an inner ventilation hole in its top and an inner air circulation opening formed in its side periphery. The inner air circulation opening faces the first wall of the outer cap.

A thermoelectric refrigerator/warmer using no external power, and a refrigerating/warming method are disclosed. A natural energy such as the solar energy is utilized so as to make an external power needless. Thus a thermoelectric device is made to convert the natural energy into electric power based on the difference between the internal and external temperatures, and this electric energy is converted again into a thermal energy by means of a peltier device, thereby varying the internal temperature of the apparatus. An outer part 4 of a thermoelectric device 3 is attached on the side face of the refrigerator/warmer, and an inner part 5 of it is attached on a bottom plate 7 of the refrigerator/warmer. Thus a thermoelectromotive force is generated based on the temperature difference between outside and inside of the refrigerator/warmer. The voltage thus generated is supplied to a peltier device 6 to cool or heat the bottom plate 7. In this manner, the thermoelectric refrigerator/warmer can be operated even without using an external power.
