Abstract
AbstractA versatile finite-element simulation tool was developed to predict the electric power output, the distributions of the electric and entropy potentials (i.e., the absolute temperature) and the local flux densities of electric charge and thermal energy (i.e., heat) for a thermoelectric generator. The input parameters are the thermogenerator architecture (i.e., geometries of different components and number of legs) and material properties such as specific electric conductivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity. The finite-element simulation tool was validated by modeling a commercially available thermoelectric generator, which was based on semiconducting n- and p-type Bi
