  1. 1. Thermoelectric Generators : A comparison of electrical power outputs depending on temperature.

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

    Author : Erik Fransson; Daniel Olsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Waste heat; thermoelectric generator; thermoelectric cooler; Seebeck effect.;

    Abstract : Today many processes generate a lot of waste heat, for example industries or cars. One way to make this thermal energy useful is to transform it into electrical energy with a thermoelectric generator (TEG) or thermoelectric cooler (TEC). This technology is not used in any large scale today, but a lot of research is being done on the subject. READ MORE

  3. 2. Fabrication and Evaluation of Sb2Te3/PVDF Hybrid Thermoelectric Films

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Bo Yu; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Thermoelectric (TE) materials and devices have been extensively studied for harvesting waste heat energy. There is more interest to fabricate TE materials and devices at low cost and highly-efficient ways. READ MORE

  4. 3. Energy Harvesting for Electronic Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Oscar Ridell; Pål Nilsson; [2017]
    Keywords : Energy Harvesting; Energy Scavenging; Photovoltaic cells; Electromagnetics; Piezoelectric element; Radiofrequency; Thermoelectric element; Science General; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Energy harvesting enables products to become more self-sufficient of power and offers the possibility to avoid battery exchange and power cables. The performance and applicability of the most promising or popular small scale energy harvesting technologies are investigated in this thesis. READ MORE

  5. 4. Energy Harvesting Device

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Driton Salihu; [2016]
    Keywords : Energy Harvesting; Rechargeable Batteries; Supercapacitor; ABB; PV; Solar cells; Radio Frequency; Piezoelectric; Thermoelectric generators; PMIC; Amorphous-silicon; Gallium-Arsenide; MPPT; PCB.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis evaluates the concept of Energy Harvesting as a power source for a serial measurement board used by ABB robots. A background study of possible energy harvesters is included, where the main focus is put on the overall function and what parameters determine the maximum generated power and efficiencies.

  6. 5. How to handle boil-off gases from LNG trucks

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Maskinkonstruktion; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Linda Gunnarsson; Erik Helander; [2015]
    Keywords : LNG; Liquefied natural gas; boil-off; boil-off gases; BOG; natural gas;

    Abstract : This master thesis project aims to investigate the circumstances of boil-off for heavy vehicle transports, using LNG as fuel, and suggest possible ways of handling these gases otherwise released into the atmosphere. LNG, Liquefied Natural Gas, is when natural gas is cooled below its vaporisation point, turning it into liquid phase which is a much more dense way of storing and transporting the fuel. READ MORE
