Abrégé

The invention concerns a thermal exchange device including a thermoelectric device and an absorption refrigeration device. The absorption device includes an evaporator (100) absorbing the thermal energy from a warm source (500), a generator (300) supplied with thermal energy from the warm side (602) of the thermoelectric device (600), an absorber (400), and a condenser (200). A case (10) houses the generator (300), the absorber (400), the evaporator (100) and the thermoelectric device (600). The thermoelectric device separates the case (10) into two compartments, with the compartment in contact with the warm side (602) forming the generator (300), and the compartment in contact with the cold side (601) forming the absorber (400) and the evaporator (100). A membrane (20, 30) that is impermeable to liquid phases and permeable to gas phases divides each compartment into two zones to maintain the absorbate/absorbant liquid solution solely in one of the zones of each compartment, the zones in which the absorbate/absorbant liquid solution is maintained being delimited by the thermoelectric device (600).
