PURPOSE:To enhance the energy conversion efficiency by increasing the temperature difference between the high temperature side and the low temperature side of a thermoelectric generator. CONSTITUTION:A thermoelectric generator 4 is disposed at a low temperature side compartment 3, and coupled with a high temperature side compartment 2 by a heat pipe 5 which passes a partition plate 1. The low temperature side of the pipe 5 is connected with the high temperature unit 6 of the generator, and thermal energy is transferred from the compartment 2 through the pipe 5 efficiently to the unit 6 at a high speed. On the other hand, the high temperature side of a heat pipe 7 filled with low temperature medium is connected with the low temperature unit 8 of the generator in the compartment 3 to air cool the low temperature side of the pipe 7. The pipe 7 efficiently transfers the thermal energy even at the low temperature unit by using the medium. |
