DMPQ-Explain the concept of functioning of Thermoelectric Generator.
Thermoelectric power generators are the devices which used to convert temperature difference between two junctions into electrical energy. A working of thermoelectric generator is based on Seebeck effect. According to which, a loop of two dissimilar metal develops an emf when the two junctions are kept at different temperature. That is why it is also referred as Seebeck Power Generation. They have advantage over solar energy as there is no requirement of continuous fuel.
