Generation Capacity

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.

Thermoelectric Power Generator

In this paper modeling and simulation of thermoelectric generator (TEG)modules is validated using MATLAB. The TEG model is developed with suitable mfiles and further the model is extended for generating electricity from waste heat liberated by air conditioners. These waste heat may lead to global warming and causes pollution. Hence this problem is addressed in this paper and thermoelectric generators are used to generate power. TEG is called a green technology as all parts are fixed and power produced is not wasted. Thermoelectric power generator converts waste heat in to electric energy. Hence thermoelectric power generation technique aids in the conversion of waste-heat energy into electrical power .So the economical wastage of thermal energy is avoided .The power production is abundant and also atmospheric pollution is avoided. As a result overall conversion efficiency of system is enhanced. The produced energy can be used for lighting a LED bulb, charging the mobile batteries.

<a name="OLE_LINK28"></a><a name="OLE_LINK27"></a><span>Electrical energy is important in various developments to ensure global stability. However, most electrical energy sources are non-renewable and these sources are expected to be depleted in the near future. In order to solve this problem, research on renewable energy sources are intensified and thermoelectric generator (TEG) is one of the potential solutions. TEG can generate electricity if the there is a temperature difference between the hot end and cold end of its plate and it is widely used in various applications, ranging from high temperature of a steam generator until to the lowest temperature of a human body. The initial development of this work focuses on the electrical power generator design by using focal lens to focus sunlight, a form of renewable energy, on the TEG hot end and also underground heat dissipation system on the cold end to create temperature difference. The initial results showed that the amount of power produced by the system is quite small but reasonable due to the type of TEGs used. However, the heat dissipation system showed a promising development due to its non-dependency on external energy to expel heat from the cold side</span><span>.</span>

AbstractIn this work, thermoelectric device was made, using a commercially available ThermoElectric Generator (TEG), in order to measure the gained power and efficiency for long-term performance. The module was subjected to sequential hot side heating at 200°C (392 0F), and cooling for 6000 cycles, in order to measure the TEG's power and EMF change. A 14% increase in the TEG’s material resistance was found, as well as a 5% reduction in the Seebeck coefficient. After the experiment, the module was disassembled and thermoelectric p- and n- legs were examined using IR spectroscopy.
