Homemade high output “Thermoelectric Generator”, 6 cell's 200mv
- peter_d_sherman 6y agoTakeaway: You wouldn't think that Carbon (in this case in the form of a pencil lead / pencil leads) would be a good Peltier Effect / Thermoelectric Effect (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect) material -- but that assumption turns out to be not true... In fact, I posit that there is a lot of experimentation to be done with Peltier Junctions which, in addition to the two dissimilar metals, have a carbon layer of varying experimental parameters (carbon type, thickness, etc.), between them. I posit that more efficient Peltier Junctions could potentially be created by the use of some form / thickness of carbon in the metal sandwich... will this prove true? Well, we need to do some more experimentation in this area!
