Linear Irreversible Thermodynamics: A Glance at Thermoelectricity and the Biological Scaling Laws
This paper presents so-called thermoelectric generators (TEGs), which are considered thermal engines that transform heat into electricity using the Seebeck effect for this purpose. By using linear irreversible thermodynamics (LIT), it is possible to study the thermodynamic properties of TEGs for thr...
