Jimbo, are you making all these calc's based off of Kryotherm's software, the charts you linked in another thread, or just various math equations? If you somehow find the time, could you run through how you:

1. look up the TEC specs
2. run COP calcs
3. determine the greatest efficiency situation
4. develop an implementation plan

Ie. do an example where you just grab a TEC at random and show how you would calc it. Also, characteristics of TECs that we should look for would be great.

Your knowledge seems quite deep on the matter. If you could explain your methods to the rest of us "lunkheads," perhaps the rest of us could start churning out potential situations where a TEC would make sense peformance and economic-wise. It would be a great service for the TEC community here, abroad, and would be highly appreciated.
