Modeling and Simulation of High-Performance Solar Thermoelectric Generator
A new and optimum design of a STEG has been developed for attaining an increased efficiency of 21.6%. The new design consists of three cascaded thermoelectric materials. In addition, it includes two glass panes, a selective solar absorber, two radiation shields, and forced air cooling system. The design is modeled theoretically and numerically using ANSYS software.
