Title:
THERMOELECTRIC POWER GENERATING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/006190
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To provide a thermoelectric power generating system which has a relatively simple configuration, does not readily malfunction, and is capable of generating electricity efficiently merely through a change in the temperature of the surrounding environment, even in a location without a heat source. [Solution] A thermoelectric power generating device 13 is disposed between a heat storing body 11 which includes a phase change material 11b, and a heat absorbing/dissipating body 12 which has a greater heat dissipation rate and/or heat absorption rate than the heat storing body 11. The thermoelectric power generating device 13 is configured to generate electricity by means of a temperature difference between the heat storing body 11 and the heat absorbing/dissipating body 12. The thermoelectric power generating device 13 may be plate-shaped, with one surface in contact with the heat storing body 11 and the other surface in contact with the heat absorbing/dissipating body 12.
