摘要: An updated model of the hybrid system consisting a vacuum TIG (thermionic generator) and multi-couple TEG (thermoelectric is proposed, in which main internal external irreversible losses are considered temperatures electrode plates cold side determined by energy balance equations rather than some specified parameters. Analytical expressions for power output efficiency TIG, TEG, derived. The effects voltage work functions electric current on discussed. maximum numerically calculated. optimally operating regions parameters determined.
