<p>A thermoelectric module (1) has a plurality of thermoelectric devices (2) integral with heat conducting surfaces (5, 5') of fluid chambers (3, 3'). The thermoelectric devices (2) are operable to transfer heat to or from fluids in the chambers (3, 3'). A product, eg a beverage, flowing through one of the chambers (3, 3') can be heated or cooled to achieve a desired product temperature by selective operation of the thermoelectric devices (2). The module (1) provides an integrated unit that avoids inefficient boundaries between the heat conducting surfaces (5, 5') and the thermoelectric devices (2).</p> |
