Thermoelectric power sources using low-grade heat
Part 3
Keywords:
thermoelectric generator, computer-aided design, heat recovery, heat exchangeAbstract
This work is the third part of the cycle of research on thermoelectric power sources using low-grade heat. The results of computer-aided design of a thermoelectric generator with heat pipes and forced convection liquid heat exchange that uses thermal waste from industrial installations are presented. The generator design has been developed and a series of its experimental studies have been conducted on a test bench.
