The Influence of Non-Uniform High Heat Flux on Thermal Stress of Thermoelectric Power Generator
A thermoelectric generator (TEG) device which uses solar energy as heat source would achieve higher efficiency if there is a higher temperature difference between the hot-cold ends. However, higher temperature or higher heat flux being imposed upon the hot end will cause strong thermal stress, which...
