AUTOMOTIVE THERMOELECTRIC POWER GENERATING DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve a power generating efficiency of an automotive thermoelectric power generating device, by a method where at least either one junction among a junction between a low-temperature side element and a thermoelectric transducer module or the junction between the thermoelectric transducer module and a high temperature side element being fixed tightly. SOLUTION: This automotive thermoelectric power generating device comprises a thermoelectric transducer module 11, a low-temperature side element 9 brought into contact with the low-temperature side surface of the thermoelectric transducer module 11, and a high-temperature side element 12 brought into contact with the high-temperature side surface of the thermoelectric transducer module 11. At least either the contact among the contact 19 between the low temperature side element 9 and the thermoelectric transducer module 11 or the contact 20 between the thermoelectric transducer module 11 and the high temperature side element 12 firmly bonded over the whole contact region via an adhesive between.
