Abstract
Nano thermoelectric generator have a basic concept of converting the heat energy into water steam which runs the turbine which produces the electrical energy most of the steam or air turbine that are operating now are having the input heat from coal or nuclear power. Which is a drastic waste of input power by the help of solar heat which can be used to heat the fluid material which is used to run the turbine some of the basic problems that we face is the heat transfer is not so good, resulting in poor efficiency this problem is overcome with the help of nanorods like carbon nan rods which have a high heat conducting capacity which helps in efficient heat exchange which is not given in general steam or air turbine plants. On the other hand the heat lost during the condensation process can be used with the help of thermoelectric effect which improves the efficiency and gives more power.
