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. Thermal energy harvesting for indoor industrial applications

   University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Avdelningen för elektronikkonstruktion

   Author : Mengxuan Li; [2017]
   Keywords : Thermal energy harvester; thermal energy generator; temperature difference; air flow; heat sink; comsol multiphysics;

   Abstract : Wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes cannot directly used by the traditional power grid, a most common way to supply power to WSN nodes is to use batteries. However, the battery has a disadvantage that is the limited lifetime, adding an energy harvester to extend the lifetime is a good way. READ MORE

4. 3. A comparison of different connection techniques for thermoelectric generators in vehicle waste heat recovery

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Björn Andersson; [2013]
   Keywords : Waste heat recovery; thermoelectric generator; maximum power point tracking; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Increasing demand for lower fuel consumption increases the importance of a higher total energy efficiency in trucks. Since the efficiency of a modern diesel engine is in the range of 40 %, large amounts of waste heat are produced. Recovering this energy can be done with thermoelectric generators. READ MORE

5. 4. Implementation of DC-DC converter with maximum power point tracking control for thermoelectric generator applications

   University essay from KTH/Elektrisk energiomvandling

   Author : David Jahanbakhsh; [2012]
   Keywords : Thermoelectric generator; Waste heat recovery; DC-DC converter; single ended primary inductor converter; Maximum power point tracking; Perturb and observe; Incremental conductance;

   Abstract : A heavy duty vehicle looses approximately 30-40 % of the energy in the fuel as waste heat through the exhaust system. Recovering this waste heat would make the vehicle meet the legislative and market demands of emissions and fuel consumption easier. READ MORE

6. 5. Thermoelectric-Generator-Based DC-DC Conversion Network for Automotive Applications

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

   Author : Molan Li; [2011]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : As waste heat recovering techniques, especially thermoelectric generator (TEG technologies, develop during recent years，its utilization in automotive industry is attempted from many aspects. Previous research shows that TEG as a waste heat harvesting method is feasible. READ MORE
