Thermoelectric Generator of Ceramic Materials

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: This research has an objective to develop and fabricate thermoelectric generator (TEG) from the p-Ca3Co4O9 and n-CaMnO3 ceramic materials. The p-n materials were cut and polished to the dimension of 4 × 4 × 4 mm3 and 71 couples. The relationship between temperature difference and electrical voltage, electrical current, electrical power and conversion efficiency were measured. The electricity and efficiency of TEG showed the maximum value of 1.6 V, 300 mA, 480 mW and 0.025 % at temperature difference of 60 K.
