Abstract :
The U-type Fe-Si porous thermoelectric devices (ex. φ 30 mm × 20 mm) were developed to recover electric power by reciprocating combustion of low calorie exhaust gas without any city gases and any pollution. The output power was finally improved to 80 mW ~ 90 mW under the critical equivalent ratio less than 0.1
