<p>A novel tube incorporating Peltier devices and capable of being used as a heat insulating device. A plurality of Peltier modules (9) are electrically connected in series and arranged. Medium circulating tubes (13 and 14) for circulating therein media (11 and 12) having high thermal conductivity are disposed on the heat radiation side and heat absorption side of the Peltier modules (9) in the direction of the arrangement of the Peltier modules (9). The medium circulating tubes (13 and 14) and the Peltier modules (9) sandwiched between these medium circulating tubes (13 and 14) are covered with a flexible protective tube (15), and heat exchange is effected through the media (11 and 12) flowing inside the medium circulating tubes (13 and 14) by the heat absorption-radiation functions of the Peltier modules (9) when power is applied thereto.</p> |
