Abstract:
The thermoelectric complementary effects have been discovered in the nineteenth century. However, their role in engineering applications has been very limited until the first half of the twentieth century, the beginning of space exploration era. Radioisotope thermoelectric generators have been the actual motive for the research community to develop efficient, reliable and advanced thermoelectrics. The efficiency of thermoelectric materials has been doubled several times during the past three decades. Nevertheless, there are numerous challenges to be resolved in order to develop thermoelectric systems for our modern applications. This paper discusses the recent advances in thermoelectric power systems and sheds the light on the main problematic concerns which confront contemporary research efforts in that field.

Abstract:
We analyzed the potential of thermoelectrics for electricity generation in a combined heat and power (CHP) waste heat recovery system. The state-of-the-art organic Rankine cycle CHP system provides hot water and space heating while electricity is also generated with an efficiency of up to 12% at the MW scale. Thermoelectrics, in contrast, will serve smaller and distributed systems. Considering the limited heat flux from the waste heat source, we investigated a counterflow heat exchanger with an integrated thermoelectric module for maximum power, high efficiency, or low cost. Irreversible thermal resistances connected to the thermoelectric legs determine the energy conversion performance. The exit temperatures of fluids through the heat exchanger are important for the system efficiency to match the applications. Based on the analytic model for the thermoelectric integrated subsystem, the design for maximum power output with a given heat flux requires thermoelectric legs 40–70% longer than the case of fixed temperature reservoir boundary conditions. With existing thermoelectric materials, 300–400 W/m2 electrical energy can be generated at a material cost of $3–4 per watt. The prospects of improvements in thermoelectric materials were also studied. While the combined system efficiency is nearly 100%, the balance between the hot and cold flow rates needs to be adjusted for the heat recovery applications.

Abstract:
The trend towards increasing heat flux at the chip and module level in computers is continuing. This trend coupled with the desire to increase performance by reducing chip operating temperatures presents a further challenge to thermal engineers. This paper will provide an assessment of the potential for module cooling enhancement with thermoelectric coolers. A brief background discussion of thermoelectric cooling is provided citing some of the early history of thermoelectrics as well as more recent developments from the literature. An example analyzing cooling enhancement of a multichip module package with a thermoelectric cooler is discussed. The analysis utilizes closed form equations incorporating both thermoelectric cooler parameters and package level thermal resistances to relate allowable module power to chip temperature. Comparisons are made of allowable module power with and without thermoelectric coolers based upon either air or water module level cooling. These results show that conventional thermoelectric coolers are inadequate to meet the requirements. Consideration is then given to improvements in allowable module power that might be obtained through increases in the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT or miniaturization of the thermoelectric elements.

Abstract:
A thermoelectric-hydraulic numerical model is built for thermoelectric recuperators with wavy and straight fins under large longitudinal temperature difference, and their performance is analyzed. It is found that the comprehensive performance of the wavy-fin thermoelectric recuperator is better than that of straight-fin thermoelectric recuperator. The maximum output powers of the two thermoelectric recuperators are 0.251 mW and 0.236 mW at inlet velocity of 1.7 m � s-1. When the ratio of wave height to wave length is 0.1, the maximum output power is 0.251 mW and output power per unit volume is 414.8 W � m-3. Taguchi method is used to optimize the wavy-fin thermoelectric recuperator. It is found that reducing channel width and plate thickness is beneficial to increase the output power and output power per unit volume for the wavy-fin thermoelectric recuperator. Increasing fin height and fin thickness is beneficial to the output power, but disadvantage to the output power per unit volume.

Abstract:
Thermoelectrics can convert waste heat to electricity and vice versa. The energy conversion efficiency depends on materials figure of merit, zT, and Carnot efficiency. Due to the higher Carnot efficiency at a higher temperature gradient, high-temperature thermoelectrics are attractive for waste heat recycling. Among high-temperature thermoelectrics, silicon-based compounds are attractive due to the confluence of light weight, high abundance, and low cost. Adding to their attractiveness is the generally defect-tolerant nature of thermoelectrics. This makes them a suitable target application for recycled silicon waste from electronic (e-waste) and solar cell waste. In this review, we summarize the usage of high-temperature thermoelectric generators (TEGs) in applications such as commercial aviation and space voyages. Special emphasis is placed on silicon-based compounds, which include some recent works on recycled silicon and their thermoelectric properties. Besides materials design, device designing considerations to further maximize the energy conversion efficiencies are also discussed. The insights derived from this review can be used to guide sustainable recycling of e-waste into thermoelectrics for power harvesting.

Heat sink does affect on the performance of thermoelectirc generator according to the studies of many authors. In this paper, an analytical model inculding the number of thermocouples and the thermal resistance of heat sink is derived. The match between the thermoelectric module and heat sink is discussed by numerical calculation also. The results show that the thermal resistance of thermoelectric module should be designed to match that of heat sink in order to get the highest output power for a given heat sink. But for a given thermoelectric module, the output power increases with the decrease of heat sink thermal resistance, and there is a suitable heat sink due to the limit of the temperature difference between the heat source and coolant.

Abstract:
A thermoelectric generator (TEG) converts thermal energy into electrical energy corresponding to temperature gradient across both hot and cold surfaces with a conversion efficiency of approximately 5%. In spite of the conversion efficiency, TEGs can be implemented effectively for waste heat recovery systems within the power rating of kilowatts. The insufficiency of natural resources, frequently increasing oil costs and emission regulations have become an incentive factor of the recent increased interest in TEG applications. This thesis introduces a practical implementation of the thermoelectric generator for an automotive exhaust system which has a rapid transient response to produce electrical energy from the waste heat which flows through the exhaust pipe. In addition to automotive TE power generator implementation, an H-Bridge DC-DC converter within the operation of maximum power point tracking method is introduced in this thesis to obtain the maximum power transfer between the thermoelectric power generator and the load. This thesis presents a transient solution to the two-dimensional heat transfer equation with variant ambient temperature that determines heat transfer and electrical potential across the thermoelectric pellet. This equation is applied into a designed two-dimensional heat transfer MATLAB model and a comparison of simulation and experimental results approves the accuracy of the designed model. In addition to heat transfer simulation, a dynamic large scale thermoelectric power generator simulation program is introduced in this thesis to provide data analysis of actual implementation.

Abstract:
In recent years, the efficiency of thermoelectric devices has improved greatly due thermoelectric material and device geometrical improvements. However, the efficiency of TEG is still low, being a subject of further research for more improvement. Hence, the main objective of the research carried out in this thesis is to analyse the performance of dc-dc converters with or without MPPT in conditioning the power generated from TEG. In light of this objective, the following case studies have been carried out. The initial study has analysed the performance of a TEG/dc-dc boost converter system. Results indicate that the converter is able to stabilise and boost the voltage and higher efficiencies are achieved at different hot side temperatures. The next study proposes the use of MPPT algorithm to harvest maximum power from TEG system. Hence, the analysis of the performance of TEG/dc-dc converter with MPPT enabled by Incremental conductance (IC) method is done. The results indicate that the IC based MPPT approach is able to track the maximum power point but with relatively lower efficiencies than the Perturb and Observe (P&O) based MPPT method. method. Another study has analysed the parameters for the performance of TEG/dc-dc converter system in different modes with a variable load. The TEG system is subjected to different hot side temperatures, including increasing step, increasing random and constant cold side temperature profiles. The study has demonstrated how the proper selection of converter components is a necessity to avoid converter losses as well interferences on the load connected to TEG/dc-dc converter system. Furthermore, another study compares the performance of extremum seeking control (ESC) and P&O MPPT algorithms applied to TEG system. The TEG model is validated with results from multiphysics (COMSOL) modelling software. To assess the effect of temperature dependency of TEG parameters, two TEG materials have been chosen; bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) with temperature dependent Seebeck effect (S), electrical conductivity (σ) and thermal conductivity (k); and lead telluride (PbTe) with non-temperature dependent S, σ and k. Results indicate that ESC MPPT method outperforms the P&O technique in terms extracting maximum power and the simulation speed. Results also indicate that ESC outperforms the IC technique in terms of extracting maximum power and the speed of computation. ESC method is faster than the IC method. In the final study, the application of the concept and the design of a distributed dc-dc converter architecture (DCA) on TEG system is deliberated. The distributed or cascaded converter architecture involves the use of non-isolated per-TEG dc-dc converter connected to the load. Alternatively, for some specific loads, especially in automotive applications, soft-switched, isolated bi-directional dc-dc converters can be used instead of non-isolated converters because these integrated converters enable bi-directional power flow control capability. Simulations and experimental studies have been carried out to demonstrate and prove the necessity of the DCA design application on TEG systems. In addition, some of the factors affecting the performance of TEG systems are correspondingly analysed.

The withdrawal and consumption of water at thermoelectric power plants affects regional ecology and supply security of both water and electricity. The existing field data on US power plant water use, however, is of limited granularity and poor quality, hampering efforts to track industry trends and project future scenarios. Furthermore, there is a need for a common quantitative framework on which to evaluate the effects of various technologies on water use at power plants. To address these deficiencies, Part 1 of this thesis develops an analytical system-level generic model (SGEM) of water use at power plants. The S-GEM applies to fossil, nuclear, geothermal and solar thermal plants, using either steam or combined cycles, and outputs water withdrawal and consumption intensity, in liters per megawatt-hour. Two validations of the S-GEM are presented, one against data from the literature for a variety of generation types, the other against field data from coal plants in South Africa. Part 2 of the thesis then focuses on cooling systems, by far the largest consumers of water in most power plants. The water consumption of different cooling systems is placed on a common quantitative basis, enabling direct comparison of water consumption between cooling system types, and examination of the factors that affect water consumption within each cooling system type. The various cost, performance, and environmental impact tradeoffs associated with once-through, pond, wet tower, dry, and hybrid cooling technologies are qualitatively reviewed. Part 3 examines cooling of concentrating solar power (CSP) plants, which presents particular problems: the plants generate high waste heat loads, are usually located in water-scarce areas, and are typically on the margin of economic viability. A case study is conducted to explore the use of indirect dry cooling with cold-side thermal energy storage, in which cooling water is chilled and stored at night, when ambient temperatures are lower and the plant is inactive, and then used the following day. This approach is shown to hold promise for reducing the capital, operational, and performance costs of dry cooling for CSP.

Abstract:
Power harvesting from thermoelectric generators is considered as a viable route towards sustainable energy generation by the conversion of thermal gradients occuring naturally or from waste heat sources into useful electrical energy. This thesis investigates the electrodeposition of n-type binary, ternary and doped thermoelectric materials, with the aim of demonstrating that electrodeposition can be used as a cost-effective and simple technique to fabricate highly-efficient thermoelectric materials. In order to achieve this, the thermoelectric and electrical properties of such materials must be related to their microstructural properties. Therefore, a detailed and systematic study of their microstructural properties, including morphology, crystal structure, composition and crystallite size, is undertaken whilst also measuring the electrical and thermoelectric properties. It is found that the potential of the working electrode, employed as the substrate during the electrodeposition of bismuth telluride, is one of the most effective variables in the fabrication process. More anodic potentials such as 0 V vs. SCE offer the best microstructural and thermoelectric properties. The addition of a surfactant, sodium lignosulphonate, to the electrolyte further improves the microstructural properties of bismuth telluride thin films, by levelling the deposits and inducing greater crystallographic orientation in growth planes perpendicular to the substrate. This is believed to be preferential for improving thermoelectric properties. The electrodeposition of the ternary thermoelectric material bismuth tellurium selenide shows that the microstructural and hence the thermoelectric and electrical properties of the thin films can be optimised by use of more positive electrode potentials. The thin films fabricated exhibit a thermoelectric efficiency of up to two orders of magnitude greater than similar materials prepared by electrodeposition previously and equal efficiency to those prepared by methods which are more costly and difficult to undertake. Doping these materials with copper, by electrochemical means, further improves the thermoelectric efficiency by over another order of magnitude.

Abstract:
Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) convert the thermal energy flowing through them into DC electrical energy in a quantity dependant on the temperature difference across them and the electrical load applied, with a conversion efficiency of typically 5%. Nonetheless, they can be successfully employed to recover energy from waste heat and their use has increased rapidly in recent years, with applications ranging from microwatts to kilowatts, due to energy policy legislations and increasing energy cost determined by climate change, environmental issues and availability of energy sources. The performance of TEGs, subject to thermal and electrical effects, can vary considerably depending on the operating conditions, therefore it is necessary to measure and characterise their performance, and to understand their dynamic behaviour and interaction with the other parts of the system. Based on this knowledge it is then desired to develop an effective electronic system able to control these devices so as to maximise the power generated and increase the overall efficiency of the system. Several TEGs can be electrically connected in series and/or parallel (forming an array) to provide the required voltage and/or current. However, TEGs are usually employed in environments with time-varying temperatures, thermal powers and electrical loads. As a consequence in most TEG systems the individual thermoelectric devices can be subject to temperature mismatch due to operating conditions. Therefore it is of relevant importance to accurately simulate the evolution of thermoelectric systems during thermal and electrical transients. At the same time accurate experimental performance data are necessary to permit precise simulations. Unfortunately, there is still no standardised method to test the electrical and thermal performance of TEGs. This thesis tackles these key challenges and contributes to the pool of existing knowledge about TEGs dealing with four main topics: testing of thermoelectric generators, simulation of thermoelectric generating systems, design and production of power electronic converters for thermoelectric generators, and physical applications of thermoelectric generators. After an introduction to the physical phenomena underlying the operation of TEGs, this thesis describes the innovative test system built at the University of Glasgow to assess the performance of TEG devices in the ”real-world”. The fixture allows a single TEG device to be tested with thermal input power up to 1 kW and hot temperature up to 800◦C with minimal thermal losses and thermal shock; the mechanical clamping force can be adjusted up to 5 kN, and the temperatures are sensed by thermocouples placed directly on the TEGs surfaces. A computer program controls all the instruments in order to minimise errors and to aid accurate measurement and test repeatability. The test rig can measure four TEGs simultaneously, each one individually controlled and heated. This allows testing the performance of TEG arrays under mismatched conditions, e.g., dimensions, clamping force, temperature, etc. Under these circumstances experimental results and a mathematical analysis show that when in operation each TEG in the array will have a different electrical operating point at which maximum energy can be extracted and problems of decreased power output arise. This thesis provides the transient solution to the one-dimensional heat conduction equation with internal heat generation that describes the transfer and generation of heat throughout a thermoelectric device with dynamic exchange of heat through the hot and cold sides. This solution is then included in a model in which the Peltier effect, the thermal masses and the electrical behaviour of the system are also considered. The resulting model is created in Simulink and the comparison with experimental results from a TEG system confirms the accuracy of the simulation tool to predict the evolution of the thermoelectric system both in steady-state and during thermal or electrical transients. This thesis presents an investigation of the optimum electrical operating load to maximise the power produced by a TEG. Both fixed temperature difference and fixed thermal input power conditions are considered. Power electronic converters controlled by a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm are used to maximise the power transfer from the TEG to the load. The MPPT method based on the open-circuit voltage is arguably the most suitable for the almost linear electrical characteristic of TEGs. An innovative way to perform the open-circuit voltage measurement during the pseudo-normal operation of the power converter is presented. This MPPT technique is supported by theoretical analysis and used to control an efficient synchronous Buck-Boost converter capable of interfacing TEGs over a wide range of temperatures. The prototype MPPT converter is controlled by an inexpensive microcontroller, and a lead-acid battery is used to accumulate the harvested energy. Experimental results using commercial TEG devices demonstrate the ability of the MPPT converter to accurately track the maximum power point during steady-state and thermal transients. This thesis also presents two practical applications of TEGs. The first application exploits the thermal energy generated by a stove to concurrently produce electrical energy and heat water, while the second application recovers the heat energy rejected to ambient by a car’s exhaust gas system to generate electrical energy for battery charging.

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the design and evaluation of a small scale solarthermoelectric power generation system. The system is intended for electricity generation and thermal energy supply to small scale applications in developing countries of the sunny equatorial regions. Detailed design methodologies and evaluations of both the thermoelectric device and the solar energy collector, which are parts of the combined system, are presented. In addition to experimental evaluations, three theoretical models are presented which allow the design and evaluation of both the thermoelectric module and the solar energy collector. One of the models (a unified thermoelectric device model) concerns the geometrical optimization and performance prediction of a thermoelectric module in power generation mode. The model is unified in the sense that it accounts for the effect of all the parameters that contribute to the performance of the thermoelectric module, a number of which are ignored by the available design models. The unified model is used for a comparative evaluation of five thermoelectric modules. One of these is commercially available and the others are assumed to have optimum geometry but with different design parameters (thermal and electrical contact layer properties). The model has been validated using data from an experimental investigation undertaken to evaluate the commercial thermoelectric module in power generation mode. Results showed that though the commercially available thermoelectric cooling devices can be used for electricity generation, it is appropriate to have modules optimized specifically for power generation, and to improve the contact layers of thermoelement accordingly. Attempts have also been made to produce and evaluate thermoelectric materials using a simple melt-qucnching technique which produces materials with properties similar to those of the more expensive crystalline materials.

Abstract:
A new dataset released by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) — which combines water withdrawal, electricity generation, and plant configuration data into a single database — enables detailed examination of cooling system operation at thermoelectric plants at multiple scales, most importantly at the unit level. This dataset was used to explore operations across the population of U.S. thermoelectric plants, leading to the conclusion that roughly 32% of all thermoelectric water withdrawal occurs while power plants are not generating electricity. Based on interviews with industry representatives, a unit’s location on the dispatch curve will largely dictate how the cooling system is operated. Peaking plants and intermediate plants might keep their cooling system running to maintain dispatchability. Other considerations include minimizing wear and tear on the pumps and controlling water chemistry. This observation has implications for understanding water use at thermoelectric plants, policy analysis, and modeling. Previous studies have estimated water use as a function of cooling technology, fuel type, prime mover, pollution controls, and ambient climate (1) or by calculating the amount of water that is thermodynamically necessary for cooling (2). This, however, does not capture all the water a plant is withdrawing simply to maintain dispatchability. This paper uses the new data set from EIA and interviews with plant operators to illuminate the role cooling systems operations play in determining the amount of water a plant withdraws.

Abstract:
The trend towards increasing heat flux at the chip and module level in computers is continuing. This trend coupled with the desire to increase performance by reducing chip operating temperatures presents a further challenge to thermal engineers. This paper will provide an assessment of the potential for module cooling enhancement with thermoelectric coolers. A brief background discussion of thermo-electric cooling is provided citing some of the early history of thermoelectrics as well as more recent developments from the literature. An example analyzing cooling enhancement of a multi-chip module package with a thermoelectric cooler is discussed. The analysis utilizes closed form equations incorporating both thermoelectric cooler parameters and package level thermal resistances to relate allowable module power to chip temperature. Comparisons are made of allowable module power with and without thermoelectric coolers based upon either air or water module level cooling. These results show that conventional thermoelectric coolers are inadequate to meet the requirements. Consideration is then given to improvements in allowable module power that might be obtained through increases in the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT or miniaturization of the thermoelectric elements.
