In article number 1602013, Qingjie Zhang, Xinfeng Tang, Ctirad Uher, and co‐workers review the transport behavior, non‐equilibrium preparation, and applications of multi‐scale microstructural thermoelectric materials. Led by Wuhan University of Technology, the world's first 100 kW solar thermoelectric–photovoltaic hybrid power‐generation system has been built in Qinghai Province, China.
Considering only about one third of the world's energy consumption is effectively utilized for functional uses, and the remaining is dissipated as waste heat, thermoelectric (TE) materials, which offer a direct and clean thermal‐to‐electric conversion pathway, have generated a tremendous worldwide interest. The last two decades have witnessed a remarkable development in TE materials. This Review summarizes...
A 3-D finite element model of two-stage thermoelectric generator based on low-temperature thermoelectric material bismuth-telluride and medium-temperature thermoelectric material skutterudites is established. Based on the formal model, structural optimization of the two-stage thermoelectric generator is carried out. Results show that, reasonable design of the structure of two-stage thermoelectric...
