This paper designs an air intake device based on Peltier effect to solve the problems of insufficient per capita water use and difficult survival of living organisms in water-scarce areas in China. It uses semiconductor to refrigerate, takes water from the air in a cooling condensation way, uses wind power and solar energy to supply power for the refrigerator continuously. Through data analysis, the device can effectively collect air moisture and condense to produce liquid water, which has broad application prospects in arid areas in northwest China.
