Abstract:The article focuses on the issue of efficiently recovering waste heat from low-exergy process gases, which poses a significant challenge for improving energy efficiency in many industrial sectors. To address this problem, the application of a thermoelectric generator (TEG) has been proposed, allowing for the direct conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy. In the course of the research, experimental measurements were conducted for process gases at temperatures of 240 °C and 300 °C, along with CFD (c… Show more
