The proposed spiral thermoelement contains a spiral unit with several turns and two contacts for connecting the unit to an electric circuit. At the unit, areas are provided for coupling the unit with a heat source and for removing heat from the unit. Each turn of the unit spiral is made of two or more materials with different thermoelectric coefficients. The unit has a rectangular cross-section with a circular hole. The advantages of the proposed thermoelement are its increased output voltage and enhanced efficiency.
