Thermoelectric Power Generating Solutions
Thermoelectric Generator Basics
Simplified TE Generator estimations
The level of power output of thermoelectric generator in
conditions specified can be estimated by the following
formulas.
Rteg
TEG Resistance
(ACR value)
E = α x (Thot - Tcold) x N
Resistance in
connected chain
Rload
Current I
Thot Ncouples
Tcold
α = 400uV/K
E
I=
(Rteg + Rload)
Pout = I² x Rload
Getting data from TEG type name
RMT thermoelectric generators have a nomenclature
system that allows to get the required data for
estimations quickly.
1MD02-040-05TEG
Ncouples
General Rteg (ACR) values are specified in the datasheet
in main table (page 1). Thermoelectric generator Rteg
value depends on the ambient temperature.
For the precise estimations, please, contact RMT
specialists directly.
