Exact Solution of a Constraint Optimization Problem for the Thermoelectric Figure of Merit
In the classical theory of thermoelectricity, the performance integrals for a fully self-compatible material depend on the dimensionless figure of merit zT. Usually these integrals are evaluated for constraints z = const. and zT = const., respectively. In this paper we discuss the question from a ma...
