Experimental and Numerical Analysis of Built-In Thermoelectric Generator Modules with an Elliptical Pin-Fin Heat Sink
A three-dimensional numerical model of thermoelectric generator (TEG) modules attached to a large chimney plate is proposed and solved numerically using a control volume based finite difference formulation. The TEG module consists of a thermoelectric generator, an elliptical pin-fin heat sink, and a cold plate for water cooling. In the chimney, the temperature of flue gases is 450-650K. Althoug...
متن کاملHeat-Sink Modules: Performance Enhancement for VCSEL Chips
After processing, the semiconductor material is cleaved into comparatively small pieces of 1.2mm by 1.4mm. These laser chips contain the important sorting cell as well as two neighboring cells to enable an easier handling of the chip and thus a protection of the lasers. However, due to the small dimensions of the laser chip, there was poor heat dissipation and consequently elevated temperatures...
متن کاملMicro Solar Thermal Power Harvesting using Thermoelectric Generator
ABSTRACT The use of a thermoelectric generator (TEG) in generating useful power from solar thermal energy is demonstrated. This device represents a portable and autonomous power generation system operating from solar power, capable of powering micro/nano systems. The TEG was integrated with a micro solar thermal collector plate to enhance the thermal radiation absorption capacity of the hot sid...
متن کاملA Thermoelectric Generator Using Porous Si Thermal Isolation
In this paper we report on a thermoelectric generator (TEG) using thermal isolation provided by a thick porous Si layer locally formed on the Si wafer and thermocouples composed of p-doped polycrystalline Si/Al. The "hot" contacts of the thermocouples lie on the porous Si layer, while the "cold" contacts lie on bulk crystalline Si. A housing was also designed and fabricated in order to transfer...
متن کاملClosed loop electrical control of urinary continence.
PURPOSE Individuals with spinal cord injury or neurological disorders may have neurogenic detrusor contractions at low volumes (bladder hyperreflexia), which cause incontinence and can lead to significant health problems. Bladder contractions can be suppressed by electrical stimulation of inhibitory pathways but continuous activation may lead to habituation of the inhibitory reflex and loss of ...
