Ten years ago, DM Rowe introduced the bestselling CRC Handbook of Thermoelectrics to
wide acclaim. Since then, increasing environmental concerns, desire for long-life electrical …

… Finally special thanks to my father, the late AJ Rowe, B. Sc., some of whose interest in science
I like to … Rowe, DM, United States thermoelectric activities in space, Proc. VIIIth Int. Conf. …

A procedure is developed to assess the potential of thermoelectric modules when used for
electrical power generation. The generating performance of a thermoelectric module is …

A number of prototype thermoelectric refrigerators are investigated and their cooling
performances evaluated in terms of the coefficient-of-performance, heat-pumping capacity and …

A thermoelectric generator is a unique heat engine in which charge carriers serve as the
working fluid. It has no moving parts, is silent in operation and very reliable. However, its …

The Czochralski method was used to grow a 46-mm-long crystal of the Ba 8 Ga 16 Ge 30
clathrate, which was cut into disks that were evaluated for thermoelectric performance. The …

Thermocouples made from heavily doped n - and p-type silicon-germanium alloys are used
in the nuclear powered thermoelectric generators which provides onboard power to the …

Polycrystalline samples of clathrate compounds Ba 8 Ga 16 Si 30 , Ba 8 Ga 16 Ge 30 , Ba 8
Ga 16 Sn 30 , and Sr 8 Ga 16 Ge 30 were prepared by direct melting and characterized …

The preparation of fine‐grained high‐density compacts of heavily doped n‐type Si 63.5 Ge
36.5 alloy and the measurement of their thermal diffusivity over the temperature range 300 to …

One of main requirements in the design of a thermoelectric module is to determine the
optimum module geometry, based upon available thermoelectric material and manufacturing …
