“Hi everyone! This Instructable will help you building your own Thermoelectric Generator using thermoelectric coolers (a.k.a. TEC). If you follow each and every step of this tutorial you will be able to generate energy with nothing but fire and water!
What you are going to learn from this Instructable:
How TEC work
Use TEC to generate energy
How to build a Thermoelectric Generator
How to take advantage of the Seebeck effect
Make fun experiments with TEC ( making ICE and power a MOTOR)
Make sure you watch the video because it´s more illustrative. Subscribe to my Youtube channel so you don´t miss out on new project and to help me grow!
Thermoelectric coolers operate using the Peltier effect. This effect creates a temperature difference by transferring heat between 2 electrical junctions. Applying voltage across joined conductors creates an electric current. When the current flows through the junctions of the two conductors, heat is removed at one side and cooling occurs. Heat is deposited at the other side.”
