Researchers Discover New Way of Producing Electricity 2010-03-09T15:35:00Z Phonic Devices makes thermoelectric materials that converts "waste heat," the byproduct of industrial processes directly into electricity. Reinventing Our Energy Infrastructure 2010-03-04T05:00:00Z Its electrical conductivity is approximately 1.2, silver at 0� being taken as 100; it is the most diamagnetic substance known, and its thermoelectric properties render it especially valuable for the construction of thermopiles. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 4, Slice 1 "Bisharin" to "Bohea" If you own a USB-powered drink chiller, you probably own a thermoelectric generator--only working in reverse. Turning Body Heat Into Electricity 2010-06-08T10:00:00Z Low-calorie lignite remains the major fuel base for thermoelectric power stations. Area Handbook for Bulgaria It was then found that an instant's exposure of the face of the thermoelectric pile to the focus of invisible rays, dashed the needles of a coarse galvanometer violently aside. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 In the ice is a thermoelectric junction, the wires leading to which are in communication with a reflecting galvanometer. The Birth-Time of the World and Other Scientific Essays Very interesting experiments may thus be performed, and these may lead to the solving of the great thermoelectric problem. The Boy Mechanic: Volume 1 700 Things for Boys to Do A thermoelectric device placed on skin will generate power as long as the ambient air is at a lower temperature than the body. Turning Body Heat Into Electricity 2010-06-08T10:00:00Z Various analogies next pointed to the use of heat, and the thermoelectric cell emerged, embodying the application of flame to the junction of two different metals. Edison, His Life and Inventions If we determine, by means of a thermoelectric pile, the total radiation, and deduct from it the purely obscure, we obtain the value of the purely luminous emission.
