According to the present invention, a thermoelectric power-generating system using the waste heat of a cooling fluid comprises: a power apparatus; a heat exchange unit arranged in the power apparatus to dissipate heat generated by the power apparatus; a fluid delivery channel unit including a low-temperature-fluid delivery channel communicating with one side of the heat exchange unit to introduce a low-temperature fluid, and a high-temperature-fluid delivery channel communicating with the other side of the heat exchange unit to discharge heat absorbed from the power apparatus; a heat radiator, one side of which is in communication with the high-temperature-fluid delivery channel, and the other side of which is in communication with the low-temperature-fluid delivery channel to radiate heat from the high-temperature cooling fluid introduced from the high-temperature-fluid delivery channel and to discharge the cooling fluid to the low-temperature-fluid delivery channel; and a thermoelectric module, one side of which is brought into thermal contact with the low-temperature-fluid delivery channel and the other side of which is brought into thermal contact with the high-temperature-fluid delivery channel to produce electrical energy. The thermoelectric power-generating system using the waste heat of a cooling fluid according to the present invention operates the thermoelectric module using the temperature difference between the low-temperature-fluid delivery channel and the high-temperature-fluid delivery channel formed between the power apparatus and the heat radiator, thereby utilizing waste heat. |
