Study of the economical feasibility and the performance of thermoelectric devices under different conditions: Power generation

In this paper, we present a study of an installation in the renewable energy field and for the waste heat recovry. This study presents a design a system that generates electricity from heat using the thermoelectric effect. The thermal and electrical parameters are modeled and studied in order to estimate the optimal production electrical energy. The overall study shows that this system is relatively competitor and can complement the photovoltaic systems in places where it is unnecessary to light. The results presented show that this system can be implemented in different sources of waste heat. This article will introduce an architecture based on Internet of Things (IOT) for remotely controlling the smart generator system using an embedded system.
