Measure thermoelectric conversion efficiency for thermoelectric material alone and a pair of thermoelectric material
This system can evaluate not only power generation but also conversion efficiency of thermoelectric modules. The conversion efficiency is evaluated from current dependency of power generation measured with four-probe method and heat flow measured with heat flow meter.
High temperature part can reach up to 500 ℃(standard specifications), while low temperature part is cooled with water flow.
