Peltier‐effect in the mixed state of (Bi, Pb) 2 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O δ
We present measurements of the Peltier‐effect in the mixed state of Bi 1.76 Pb 0.24 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O δ . The Peltier‐coefficient broadens in a magnetic field quite similar to the resistivity and the thermopower. Comparison with the thermopower shows that Onsagers relation holds well. The occurrence...

implies that the electric current is accompanied by a large heat current. We show that the vortex contribution to the Peltier‐heat is negligibly small. Therefore the heat current has to be attributed to normal quasiparticle excitations. Our results indicate that this quasiparticle contribution to the heat current remains large even at temperatures far below
