Research on the intramural thermoelectric generator for lower speed fluid

The thermoelectric conversion with lower Renault number (Re) fluid, such as waste heat from industry boiler, and engine´s circled cooling water, which can be designed as intramural generator structure. In this research, a thermoelectric project analysis model and the description of an intensified system are presented, its generator with the aligned or staggered platoon structure has strengthened heat-transfer property, and the heat convection coefficient ratio has increased times than plain tube; For the fluid kinetic energy´s loss is influenced by the whirlpool, the pressure difference is several hundred Pa level which changes along with geometric parameters of transform components; what´s more, heat transfer area increase distinctly under the same generator volume, which has built the foundation for the enhancement output electric power.
