THERMOELECTRIC GENERATION SYSTEM FOR SHIP

摘要

Disclosed is a thermoelectric power generation system for a ship. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the thermoelectric power generation system for a ship comprises: a ship engine; a turbocharger producing compressed air using exhaust gas from the ship engine; an intercooler cooling the compressed air from the turbocharger using a coolant, and supplying the cooled compressed air to the ship engine; and a thermoelectric power generation module formed in the intercooler, and generating power using a temperature difference between the coolant supplied from the intercooler and the compressed air flowing through the intercooler. According to the present invention, the thermoelectric power generation system for a ship has the thermoelectric power generating module generating the power using the temperature difference between the coolant and the compressed air in the intercooler cooling the compressed air supplied from the ship engine, thereby recovering waste heat without the reduction of back pressure, wherein the waste heat is dissipated to lower the temperature of the compressed air when the temperature of the compressed air is raised after the compressed air flows through the turbocharger.
