Multiphysics simulations of thermoelectric generator modules with cold and hot blocks and effects of some factors

Transient and steady-state multiphysics numerical simulations are performed to investigate the thermal and electrical performances of a thermoelectric generator (TEG) module placed between hot and cold blocks. Effects of heat radiation, leg length and Seebeck coefficient on the TEG thermal and elect...
