Abstract

This paper presents the thermoelectric generators which converting directly heat flow into electric energy. Thermoelectric modules (TEM) normally designed for cooling are suited for power generation as well, as they are made of materials of high thermoelectric efficiency when operated with low level heat sources (up to 380 K).
