Most electrical components have an equivalent thermal-based counterpart however some devices, such as an inductor, can be more difficult to realise than others. Here, the authors demonstrate a Peltier-induced thermoinductive effect theoretically and experimentally demonstrating a circuit with an electrically controllable reverse heat flow.
