Design and analysis of a thermoelectric energy harvesting system for powering sensing nodes in nuclear power plant

In this work, a thermoelectric energy harvester system aimed at harvesting energy for locally powering sensor nodes in nuclear power plant coolant loops has been designed, fabricated and tested. Different mathematical modeling methods have been validated by comparing with experimental results. The m...
