Thermoelectric generator performance enhancement by the application of pulsed heat power (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Shittu, S., Li, G., Zhao, X., & Ma, X. (2019, June). Thermoelectric generator performance enhancement by the application of pulsed heat power. Presented at International Conference on Fluid Flow, Heat and Mass Transfer: FFHMT'19, Ottawa, Canada

Thermoelectric generator (TEG) is usually studied under steady state heating conditions however, the use of pulsed heat power could significantly enhance its performance. Therefore, this paper presents a numerical investigation of the thermal and ele... Read More about Thermoelectric generator performance enhancement by the application of pulsed heat power.
