This paper presents a method for calculating the electrical power generated by a thermoelectric heat exchanger. The thermoelectric heat exchanger transfers heat from a hot fluid to a cold fluid through a thermoelectric generator located in the heat-exchanger wall separating the two fluid streams. The method presented here is an extension of the NTU method used to calculate heat-exchanger heat-transfer effectiveness. The effectiveness of thermoelectric power generation is expressed as the ratio of the actual power generated to the power that would be generated if the entire heat-exchanger area were operating at the inlet fluid temperatures. This method collapses results for several heat-exchanger configurations and allows a concise presentation of the results. It is shown that the NTU method of calculating heat-exchanger heat-transfer effectiveness can be modified in a similar way.
