Efficiency Research on Thermoelectric Generator of Vehicle Exhaust

Abstract

The temperature of vehicle exhaust is high which carries off about 40 percent of the engine's total energy. Thermoelectric generation technology can convert waste thermal energy into electric energy for recovery and utilization. This paper introduces the basic principle of Vehicle exhaust thermoelectric generator.Optimizes the structure of heat exchanger and topology of thermoelectric module.Establishes the mathematical model of output power and conversion efficiency that is related to resistance ratio and surface length ratio.By simulation analysis, obtained the condition of maximum value of output power and conversion efficiency.
