Numerical analysis of flow configuration and channel design for thermoelectric OTEC systems

Abstract This research examines the optimized integration of Bi₂Te₃-based thermoelectric generators (TEGs) in Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) systems, evaluating their performance via detailed numerical analysis. We conducted finite element simulations using COMSOL Multiphysics to analyze the...
