PROSPECTS IN THE USE OF THERMOELECTRIC GENERATORS FOR VEHICLES

Аннотация

In this article offers a comprehensive analysis of thermoelectric generators (TEGs), with a particular emphasis on their many designs, construction methods, and operational processes, all aimed at achieving optimal conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy. This chapter extensively examines the fundamental principles that control thermoelectric generators (TEGs), providing a complete examination of their respective merits and drawbacks in comparison with conventional energy conversion techniques. This study thoroughly investigates the key elements that have a significant impact on the performance of thermoelectric generators (TEGs), including the temperature gradient, heat source temperature, and load resistance.
