Abstract -

The issue of global economic expansion at a quick pace, relative energy scarcity, waste heat from internal combustion engine exhaust, and environmental pollution has received increased attention in the last several years. Approximately 30 to 40% of the total heat provided to the engine in the shape of fuel is turned into mechanical work that is useful. It is necessary to convert waste heat into productive activity because the residual heat is released into the atmosphere via exhaust gases and motor cooling systems, which leads to entropy growth and significant environmental damage. Because of the unique advantages of thermoelectric generators, waste heat recovery systems like the thermoelectric generator (TEG) have emerged as a potential alternative green technology.
