N2 - This paper deals with an application of the Sliding Mode Control (SMC) in the presence of lumped temperature disturbances in Peltier Cells (PCs). A controller is proposed so that a temperature disturbance reduction is obtained. A constructive Theorem based on a particular sliding mode surface using Lyapunov approach is demonstrated. Specifically, the proven Theorem shows a structural control law which consists of an interacting input law between the two available inputs of current and forced heat convection transfer function (ventilation input). The sliding mode surface is defined in terms of cold and hot state variables, emphasizing a new two sided control approach for PCs. In terms of applications, the localization problems are very important to minimize errors in all cases in which PCs are used.
