PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently perform waste heat power generation by disposing a plurality of thermoelectric elements in a rack-mount server while satisfactorily keeping a temperature difference applied to the plurality of thermoelectric elements.SOLUTION: In the rack-mount server, a plurality of thermoelectric elements 21 which generate power based on a temperature difference between two surfaces, are bonded to a heat conduction member 11 on one surface and bonded to a plurality of heat dissipation members 31 on the other surface. The heat conduction member 11 includes a bonded plate part 12 that is bonded to an arithmetic processing unit 41, and a plurality of upright plate parts 13 which are upright from the bonded plate part 12 and extend in an air ventilation direction in the rack-mount server. The one surface of the plurality of thermoelectric elements 21 is bonded to a side face of the plurality of upright plate parts 13. A plurality of DC/DC converters 43 than boost an output voltage of the plurality of thermoelectric elements 21 into a predetermined voltage, and a DC/AC converter 44 converts DC power of the plurality of DC/DC converters 43 into AC power.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
