Title:
熱電発電装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6754382
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A thermoelectric generation apparatus comprises a thermoelectric generation module, an output adjustment device and a control part. The thermoelectric generation module includes a thermoelectric conversion element which generates electricity by a temperature difference between a high temperature heat source and a low temperature heat source. The output adjustment device changes an output current value that is magnitude of electric current output from the thermoelectric generation module and/or an output voltage value that is magnitude of electric voltage output from the thermoelectric generation module. The control part controls the output adjustment device to control the output current value and/or the output voltage value. The control part lowers a high temperature side interface temperature by controlling the output adjustment device to increase the output current value or decrease the output voltage value when a high temperature side interface temperature is judged to be higher than a predetermined upper limit temperature.
