This work is based on the use of waste heat from the temperature difference semiconductor heat exchanger, which can effectively use the waste heat in the exhaust gas, and convert it into electrical energy output through the temperature difference semiconductor material, which can increase engine efficiency and reduce energy consumption; at the same time, it can reduce engine noise and vibration. Extended service life. Due to the strong electromagnetic interference and severe vibration of the generator, there are few remote control devices on the market for the generator. This project uses a 2.4G wireless communication module to control the frequency conversion and speed regulation of the generator. In order to save manpower, start remotely, stop as soon as possible, monitor the operating status of the waste heat temperature difference power generation, reasonably replace the power, start quickly, and reach the electromechanical Integrated product. The realization of intelligent frequency conversion technology can adjust the engine speed according to different electrical appliances, adapt to external loads, realize automatic voltage adjustment, and save fuel consumption. The grid-connected system solves the frequency and phase problems of generators of different models, generations, and manufacturers in parallel, and realizes the re-mixing of old generators, which greatly improves the service life of engines and the best power generation supply, and reduces power generation systems and storage.

Power generation using waste heat from cement kiln can not only bring economic benefits to the enterprise, but also play an important role in environment protection. Constantly researches have proved that there is still large energy saving potential in its operation. In this paper, the waste heat power generation system was divided into several subsystems, and the exergy calculation model of each subsystem unit was established. Finally, the weakest part in energy use was found according to the results. It provides a scientific basis for performance improvement and energy saving transformation of waste heat power generation.

Semiconductor thermoelectric generators have a series of advantages, such as compact volume, high-level reliability, and effective power generation in the presence of temperature difference. In many occasions, as a result of high voltage, electrical equipments can't be measured by the way of direct contact. In order to avoid equipment faults caused by low-voltage contact, a thermoelectric generator which uses waste heat of electrical equipments in service was designed. Electrical equipments often operate below 400K, and in this condition Bi2Te3 shows an outstanding performance of power generation. In order to solve the problems of little temperature difference and output power on steady-state, two methods were introduced. On the one hand, the temperature difference can be increased by filling with thermal insulation padding between the p-n junctions and using a heat sink in the cold side, and on the other hand, the output voltage and power will be augmented by increasing the number of p-n junctions. These methods have been proved effectively by simulation and experiment with promising outcomes.

An NH 3– H 2 O ejector-absorption refrigeration cycle, and an R-152a ejector refrigeration cycle are employed with a renewable energy power generator to make a proposed compact power generation and triple effect ejector-absorption refrigeration cycle. The exergy analysis of the cycle leads to a possible performance improvement. Approximately 71.69% of the input exergy is destructed due to irreversibilities in different components. Around 7.976% is available as the useful exergy output. The exhaust exergy lost to the environment is 20.33%, which is lower than the exhaust energy loss of 47.95%, while the useful energy output is 27.88%. The refrigerants used are of zero ODP and negligible GWP, and the CO 2 emission of the exhaust gases is very small as compared to that of the fossil fuel run engine, hence, this cycle is favorable to the global environment. The results also show that the proposed cycle has significant higher energy and exergy efficiency than the earlier investigated 'triple effect refrigeration cycle' and 'the combined power and ejector-refrigeration cycle'.

Embedding a thermoelectric generator (TEG) in a biological body is a promising way to supply electronic power in the long term for an implantable medical device (IMD). The unique merit of such a method lies in its direct utilization of the temperature difference intrinsically existing throughout the whole biological body. Therefore, it can resolve the service life mismatch between the IMD and its battery. In order to promote the stability of the power-generation capacity of the implanted TEG, this paper is dedicated to study a low cost and highly safe practical pattern of implanting a TEG driven by the radioisotope fuel into a human body. Recurring to the thermal energy releasing during disintegration of the radioactive isotope, it can guarantee a marked promotion in the temperature difference across the implanted TEG, consequently supplying enough power for the IMDs. A bioheat transfer model with or without a large vessel is established to characterize the feasibility and working performance of the method. The numerical simulation and parametric studies on tissue status, device properties, and environmental conditions revealed that, no matter in what conditions, the implanted TEG driven by the radioisotope fuel can always offer a much higher energy output than that provided by body heat alone. Meanwhile, in vivo/surrounding environment, isotope conditions, and intentional skin surface cooling also exhibit a direct influence on the temperature distribution of the implantable TEG and thus affect the working performance. Coordinating with the intentionally imposed cooling on the skin surface, the maximum TEG power can reach several mW, which is strong enough to meet the power consumption of the IMDs. These results were expected to be a valuable reference for designing an implantable TEG, which may actually be used in future clinics.

Abstract This paper provides some information about thermoelectric technology. Some new materials with improved figures of merit are presented. These materials in Peltier modules make it possible to generate electric current thanks to a temperature difference. The paper indicates possible applications of thermoelectric modules as interesting tools for using various waste heat sources. Some zero-dimensional equations describing the conditions of electric power generation are given. Also, operating parameters of Peltier modules, such as voltage and electric current, are analyzed. The paper shows chosen characteristics of power generation parameters. Then, an experimental stand for ongoing research and experimental measurements are described. The authors consider the resistance of a receiver placed in the electric circuit with thermoelectric elements. Finally, both the analysis of experimental results and conclusions drawn from theoretical findings are presented. Voltage generation of about 1.5 to 2.5 V for the temperature difference from 65 to 85 K was observed when a bismuth telluride thermoelectric couple (traditionally used in cooling technology) was used.

The unique merit of the implantable thermoelectric generator lies in its direct utilization of the temperature difference intrinsically existing throughout the whole biological body. Therefore, it can resolve the service life mismatch between the IMD and its battery. In order to promoting the TEG maximum power, a piece of radioisotope fuel was fixed on the TEG hot junction. Recurring to the thermal energy released during disintegration of radioactive isotope, it can guarantee a marked promotion in the temperature difference across the implanted TEG; consequently apply enough power for the IMDs.
