Abstract

Thermoelectric generator is a device that generates the electricity from the temperature difference (~T). The difference between hot and cold temperature can converted to the electricity by using the thermoelectric generator. The high or low the electricity rate is depends on the high or low the difference between hot and cold temperature. To transfer or convert the temperature difference thermoelectric HZ-20 will be used and there are many kind of thermoelectric can be used. The main objective is to fabricate the test rig and analysis about thermoelectric generator by using the Seebeck principal, Peltier and Thomson. The second objective of the project is to measure the produced electricity of thermoelectric generator by using three different light intensities. There are three intensities of light that use in this experiment start with 12770 lm/W, 27000 lm/W and 122400 lm/W. From the experiment it shows that the higher intensities will produce high voltage and the lower intensities produce low voltage. Maximum voltage that occurs from the experiment with intensity 122400 lm/W is 0.784 V and minimum voltage from the low intensity which 12770 lm/W is 25.1 x 10-3 V. These mean that the intensities of light can generate the voltage by using thermoelectric generator and from the result shows that high intensity of light, the voltage will be high too.
