Parameter analysis of thermoelectric generator/dc-dc converter system with maximum power point tracking (2017)
Journal Article
Twaha, S., Zhu, J., Li, B., Yan, Y., & Huang, K. (2017). Parameter analysis of thermoelectric generator/dc-dc converter system with maximum power point tracking. Energy for Sustainable Development, 41, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.esd.2017.08.005

The power generated from TEG is relatively unstable owing to temperature variations at its hot and cold side terminals. The dc-dc converters can provide more stable power output thereby improving the overall efficiency of TEG system. However, to faci...

Performance analysis of thermoelectric generator using dc-dc converter with incremental conductance based maximum power point tracking (2017)
Journal Article
Twaha, S., Zhu, J., Yan, Y., Li, B., & Huang, K. (in press). Performance analysis of thermoelectric generator using dc-dc converter with incremental conductance based maximum power point tracking. Energy for Sustainable Development, 37, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.esd.2017.01.003

Thermoelectric (TE) devices are regarded as alternative and environmentally friendly 7 for harvesting and recovering heat energy. Particularly, thermoelectric generators (TEGs) 8 are used for converting heat into electricity. One of the challenges be...
