Heat conversion apparatus

Abstract

A heat conversion apparatus according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a pipe which includes a first flat surface and a second flat surface disposed parallel to the first surface, and through which air having a lower temperature than entered air is discharged; a plurality of thermoelectric elements that have heat-absorbing surfaces disposed in external sides of the respective first and second surfaces; a plurality of printed circuit boards (PCBs) that are electrically connected to the plurality of thermoelectric elements; and coolant passing members that are disposed on heat-radiating surfaces of the plurality of thermoelectric elements, wherein an external floor surface of the coolant passing member includes a plurality of first external floor surfaces having a first height and a plurality of second external floor surfaces having a second height that is different from the first height, the plurality of first external floor surfaces are in contact with the heat-radiating surfaces of the plurality of thermoelectric elements, and the plurality of PCBs are disposed in the plurality of second external floor surfaces.
