Abstract - A thermoelectric generator (TEG), also called a
Seebeck generator, is a solid state device that converts heat
(temperature differences) directly into electrical energy
through a phenomenon called the Seebeck effect (a form of
thermoelectric effect). Thermoelectricgeneratorsfunction like
heat engines, but are less bulky and have no moving parts.
However, TEGs are typically more expensive and less efficient.
Thermoelectric generators could be used in power plants
in order to convert waste heat into additionalelectricalpower
and in automobiles as automotive thermoelectric generators
(ATGs) to increase fuel efficiency. Another application is
radioisotope thermoelectric generators which are used in
space probes, which has the same mechanism but use
radioisotopes to generate the required heat Peltier.
Key Words: Thermoelectric Generator, Heat Engine, Solid
State Device etc.
I. INTR.ODUCTION
As the dawn breaks, every day we come across some
new technology or development in the field of science. The
scope of this wide spectrum in which humans are
encouraged to find a better substitute for the older
technologies has made so many advancements to makeday-
to-day life easy. One such major point of focus today is to
replace the electricity with the non-conventional energy
resource-harvesting methods. In thesameway,heatcanbea
good source to produce power from it. The principle of
Seeback effect can be used for such applications. A German
physicist - Thomas Seebeack, first described it as long ago in
1820. Two metals with a common contact point, where the
potential developed due to the temperaturedifferencein the
other two ends of metals, is all about Seeback effect. Peltier
module also follows the same principle. We have used TEC-
12706 in our experimentations to know ways to optimize
the use of a Peltier module. This paper shows that heat
harvested from different heat sources generate different
amount of voltages and overall power. Experimentations
also showed that using different ways to extract heat from
the other side of the module made output voltage to vary
accordingly.
These days the demand of electricity is rising
tremendously with the growing industries and household
electrical appliances. To fulfil these daily requirements
different energy sources like coal, water, wind and solar
energy are employed at a very high cost. From all these
sources, energy is extracted and utilized but the demand for
power is still at large. Even though the world is fastchanging
and developing there are still many villages and far flung
areas where electricity is not reached and still a demand.
From some the power generation method after harvesting
energy, heat is simply wasted as by product into the
environment. If such heat can be converted even in a small
mill watt range, it can be reuse in domestic low power
lighting and in running low power consumption electronic
products. According to thermodynamics law of energy also
known as law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be
created nor destroy but can be transformed from one form
to another. Thermoelectric device which work with the
principle of Seebeck effect converts temperature gradient
between the two junctions into voltage and viceversa canbe
utilize to harness electricity from heat. The basic generation
of electric power from thermocouple is as both the junction
is maintained at different temperature gradient i.e one side
is heated with a heat source and the other side is attached
with heat sink. The output voltage is directly proportional to
the temperature difference between the two sides of the
module. As the direct output of the device is normally low, it
is further amplified with a Darlingtonpairtransistorscircuit.

II. PROBLEM STATEMENT
Some developing countries and most populated
industrialized countries (India china Mongolia Korea) etc.
have average of 3 to 10 hours of daily power-cuts because
the increase in demand of consumer utilization electricity
exceeds so that the production of electrical energy is lesser
then the consumer demand. And also shortage of fossil fuel
and coal i.e. about 60% of electricity is generated from fossil
fuels. (Oil and gas) are imported from Arabian countries. So
that pollution also may occur due to the combustion of this
fossil fuel. And also the generating the power from these
conventional sources may lead to harmful environment and
pollute the nature. In the new generationtheyaredepending
upon the rechargeable batteries or diesel /petrol engineetc.
when there is no power and at the timeofloadshedding. The
use of generator is common in industrial and commercial
sector. This ultimately increases the shortage of power and
more cost.
THERMOELECTRIC OPERATING MODES
1. COOLING MODE
Alternating P and N type TE elements are wired electrically
in series, and thermally in parallel. As the current passes
through semiconductor elements, Peltier cooling lowersthe
temperature of the TEG cold side.
2. HEATING MODE
Reverse the polarity of the current. The previously hot side
starts to cool and the cooler side now acts as the hot surface.
3. POWER GENERATION MODE
When a temperature difference is imposed acrossthedevice
by adding an external heat source, the heat passing through
the device is converted to electrical power. As the heat
travels, power through the device is created. As the
temperature difference increases, power output also
increases system description and methodology.
III. BLOCK DIAGRAM
This section gives the brief description of each
component used in designing the waste heat to generate
electricity By using this thermoelectric power generation
(TEPG) TEC12706 devices shown Whenever heating of one
surface (waste heat example refrigerator outer surfaceheat,
laptop heat, ion box heat, solar radiation heat ,even human
body heat) is also an input of thermo electric generator.
When heat is applied one side there will be a continuous
electron or holes will flow continuously based on the
temperature of heat. If the temperature is increases the
voltage is also increases vice versa in such a way that the
other side of thermoelectric generator is cold because heat
transform is uniform then onlyelectron will flowandvoltage
is developed at the output side of the thermoelectric
generator.

accordingly. In this project Seeback effectusedwhen we give
heat source to Peltier module it can generate electricity this
electricity is variable in form so we can used capacitor so
capacitor charge linearly after some time voltage generated
is large so we used LM 317 voltage regulator it is set to 14.4
value so after this it pass this voltage and stored inbattery.If
we required AC supply we used MOSFET circuit it convert
DC to AC. To get pulse to MOSFET is provided by PWM IC .if
battery is deeply discharge we used relay and comparator.
Comparator compares the value and giventhesignal torelay

and chilled water, ice or nitrous oxide can be used as the
cooling source. It works on the principle of Seebeck effect
according to which temperature difference between two
dissimilar semiconductorsproduces.Thegeneratedvoltages
are proportional to the number of Peltier modules and the
temperature difference between the surfaces. Later
