<p>The converter has a thermoelectric converter module comprising two gas volumes. A volume changing element (6) is moved and/or deformed by an electromagnetic component (4) such as a magnet or an electrically conductive coil or a short-circuited electrical conductor, by generating a magnetic field such that size of one of the gas volumes is changed. A fluid flow region for fluid flow (14) is provided for dissipating heat, where another gas volume of thermoelectric converter module is thermally coupled to the fluid flow region. An independent claim is also included for a method for utilizing a thermo electric converter.</p> |
