Abstract

An analytical model of a semiconductor thermoelectric generator (TEG) with a low-temperature heat source has been created and studied. A method for optimizing its parameters is described, based on the coordination of the heat exchange system, the structural parameters of the thermogenerator, and the properties of thermoelectric batteries. The proposed model was used to develop a TEG with a power output of 500 W.
