This paper investigates the heat transfer characteristics of a thermoelectric generator. The influence of heat dissipation intensity to the sub-thermal resistances distribution is experimentally studied. Based on the thermal network analysis and finite time thermodynamics, an analytical model including all thermal resistances (in both thermocouples and external heat exchangers) is developed to predict the performance of the generator. The results show that the computed values of output power agree well with the experimental values. The heat transfer enhancement on the generator cold side greatly reduces the cold side temperature and thermal resistance, and obviously improves the output power. Compare with air natural convection cooling, the main thermal resistance changes from the resistance between the fins and the ambient to the thermal contact resistances between the generator and the heat sink at the conditions of forced convection and water cooling. This study may be guide the optimization of generator structure. The paper investigates the heat transfer characteristics of a thermoelectric generator.

《八花图卷》在案头舒缓地打开,几组花孤独而骄傲地停留在钱选所营造的霅溪时空里,音响里却浅浅吟唱着《桃花扇》中的唱词,“寻遍,立东风渐午天,那一去人难见……”。花依旧,人何在,这是一种跨越时空的契合,还是自己潜意识中梦境的真实地再现,我已经不太分得清了。画作究竟是绘者内心感悟的客观呈现还是内心深处自说自话的呓语,有时我也不太分得清!  喜欢徽宗画卷中那绚丽的色彩、安逸唯美的万千仪态,犹如一位雍容典雅
