COMPACT HIGH POWER DENSITY THERMOELECTRIC GENERATOR

摘要

A compact high power density thermoelectric generator for producing electric power from a hot fluid heat source. In preferred embodiments the HPD TEGs provide a wide range of electric power generators with a large range of outputs utilizing a modular approach featuring: (1) a basic building TEG block which can be combined with a number of the same type of building blocks to provide (2) a basic TEG section and a number of these basic TEG sections can be combined to provide this wide range of (3) HPD TEG systems. In these preferred embodiments the heat sources could include the exhaust of a truck, car boat, and other generators engines.
