Abstract
Formulas first derived by Kohler and more recently discussed by MacDonald are used to account for relative thermoelectric effects at low temperatures in pure metals, dilute alloys, and in cold-worked copper. Since calculations based on these formulas give diffusion thermoelectricity, phonon drag contributions to thermoelectricity should appear as differences between the calculated and measured curves of thermoelectric power as a function of temperature.
