Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to experimentally and numerically investigate the cooling performance of the air-to-water thermoelectric cooling system under different working conditions. Design/methodology/approach: An air-to-water thermoelectric cooling system was designed and manufactured according to the principle of discrete binary thermoelectric Peltier modules, and the thermal performance, heat transfer rate and average COP values were examined at different cooling water temperatures and voltages applied. Additionally, numerical simulations were performed by computational fluid dynamics approach to investigate the temperature distribution and airflow structure inside the cooling chamber. Findings: Analyses were performed using experimental tests and numerical methods. It was concluded that, by decreasing the cooling water temperature from 20 to 5 °C, the average COP increases about 36%. The voltage analysis showed that the efficiency of the system does not always increase as the voltage rises; more importantly, the optimum voltage is different and depends on whether it is desired to increase COP or increase the cooling rate. Originality/value: In the studies published in the field of thermoelectric cooling systems, little attention has been paid to the voltage applied and its relationship to other operating conditions. In most cases, the tests are performed at a constant voltage. In this study, several options, including applied voltage and cooling water temperature, were considered simultaneously and their effects on performance have been tested. It was found that under such studies, optimization work should be done to evaluate maximum performance in different working conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Tara Damron This was the first time in over a hundred years that we, as Osages, were able to see in black and white an official list from the government of all these non-Osages that had headrights. Jim Gray It was like every institution that existed in Osage Nation at the time or Osage County, however you want to call, it was not there for any other purpose but to separate the Osages just from their land and their money. The government wanted to take the Osage Reservation, which the Nation as a whole held the title to and parcel it out to individual Osage citizens instead. A year after that law, Oklahoma became a state, and it established Osage County directly on top of the Osage Reservation. [Extracted from the article]

This dates to the 1906 Osage allotment act, which divided the reservation's surface land into parcels distributed to Osage individuals while keeping all the subsurface rights intact for the Osage Nation. In response to Bloomberg's FOIA request for non-Osages' headright holdings, the BIA declined to release the names and headright holdings of any individuals. Asked to disclose the holdings of non-Osage individuals and entities, the BIA released the names of roughly 70 non-Osage entities and the portion of a headright held by each.
