Abstract
A vapor phase heat exchanger coupled to a power generating bismuth telluride thermopile has been designed and tested in the laboratory. The technique provided a more effective method of waste heat dissipation compared to commonly used cooling fins and resulted in improved thermopile efficiency and power output.
This paper presents design considerations for the experimental vapor phase cooler and summarizes the results of laboratory tests.
The conversion efficiency of the thermopile was increased 31 per cent with an accompanying 61 per cent increase in power output through the employment of a vapor phase heat exchanger.
