New Material Breaks World Record Turning Heat into Electricity
I've always wanted to build a little hobby project where I put TECs on top of my wood stove and have a radiator outside with coolant to get a nice big heat difference (maybe 100C to 200C) across them and make power in winter when solar isn't so great in the Yukon.I know it won't be a massive amount of power, but given it will be 24/7 for about 6 months of winter when the wood stove runs, I think it will be a useful amount.Does anyone know where I can buy TECs that will handle extremely high temperatures like this?All the ones I see say they're rated at about a max temp delta of ~67C-72C
