Simple simulation of Peltier module

      Hi, I am planning to simulate a simple TEC module in thermal electric ansys simulation to analyse the peltier cooling effect. From the image, you can see my boundary conditions set onto the diagram. However, when I input a reasonable current, it seems that both junction temperatures only changes very little, about 0.7 degree celcius on both sides. I conducted real-life experiments using a peltier module with similar parameters and got reasonable results. It seems like my simulation does not output the correct values. May I know if I am missing something in my simulation? Please let me know if you need more information. thank you.

      Hi, I managed to solve my 1st problem but now I need to conduct a transient thermal-electric analysis on the system. May I know how do I change the steady-state to transient simulation? For your kind advice.
