Abstract
Low-temperature waste heat, commonly found in industrial processes, remains an underutilized energy source. In this study, a thermoelectric generator (TEG) was designed, developed, and tested to enable efficient recovery of waste heat from vertical surfaces without interfering with their structure. The system consists of thermoelectric modules, a copper heat sink, and an aluminum water cooler. Experiments were conducted across a heat source temperature range of 100°C to 350°C and three cooling water flow rates (150, 200, and 250 dm3/h), recording key parameters such as voltage, current, and electrical power. The maximum power achieved during the tests was 12.41 W. The results showed that increasing the cooling water flow rate leads to a slight improvement in energy recovery efficiency. The optimal balance between efficiency and resource usage was achieved at a flow rate of 200 dm3/h. The modular design of the TEG allows flexible adaptation to different operational conditions and industrial applications. The findings suggest that the developed solution can significantly contribute to improving energy efficiency in industry and support the development of sustainable energy recovery technologies.
