HYDRAULIC COUPLING AND THERMOELECTRIC DEVICE, IN PARTICULAR FOR GENERATING AN ELECTRIC CURRENT IN A MOTOR VEHICLE, COMPRISING SUCH A HYDRAULIC COUPLING

摘要

The invention relates to a hydraulic coupling (22) for a thermoelectric device comprising a plurality of thermoelectric modules (2), each thermoelectric module (2) comprising at least one thermoelectric element for generating an electric current from a temperature gradient applied between two of their faces, referred to as contact faces, said hydraulic coupling (22) comprising a body (23) for placing the outlet of a manifold (60) of a first thermoelectric module (2) in fluid communication with the inlet of a manifold (60) of a second thermoelectric module (2). The invention also relates to a thermoelectric device comprising one or more hydraulic couplings (22) according to the invention.
