The Match of Output Power and Conversion Efficiency of Thermoelectric Generation Technology for Vehicle Exhausts Waste Heat

In the practical application of thermoelectric Generation Technology for vehicle exhausts waste heat, the output power and conversion efficiency of thermoelectric module cannot reach the maximum value at the same time. In order to solve the problem of matching output power and conversion efficiency of thermoelectric Generation Technology for vehicle exhausts waste heat, this paper makes a theoretical analysis of the output power and conversion efficiency of thermoelectric module, expounds the factors that affect the output power and conversion efficiency of thermoelectric module, establishes the matching relationship between the output power and conversion efficiency, it builds theoretic foundation for thermoelectric generator design.
