Circuit Design for the use of Thermoelectric Generators (TEGs) for Renewable Energy
This work investigates the use of the thermoelectric generator for energy generation. The first image seen below shows a tracker placed on the top of the Thomas Beam Engineering (TBE) building on the UNLV campus with solar collectors focused on the TEGs. The second image shows the system block diagram. The third image shows the "hot" side of the TEGs. Finally, the fourth image shows the LTspice model for the solar TEG system.
This effort is part of Yacouba Moumouni's doctoral research. Click images to enlarge.
