[15]Thermoelectronics for cars, trucks, submarines, refridgerators and more

   [16]Michigan State University researchers believe, using
   thermoelectric generation technology, a 5% improvement in bsfc for and
   on highway truck is a reasonable 5 year goal 10% improvement possible
   with new Thermoelectric materials. They currently have a 40 watt
   thermoelectric generator for gathering waste heat from a truck
   exhaust. They can get an engine about 1-3.5% more efficient. By the
   end of 2007 they are targeting a 100 watt thermoelectric generator.

   [17]del.icio.us 
   [1486230210_a09049fc68_o.jpg]
   The total available energy in waste heat in transportation and
   industry is shown above.
   [1486254348_91c2f69dbb.jpg?v=0]
   [18]Caterpillar is using a systems approach to capturing the 10%
   improvement and is already able to capture 5% improvement in the lab.
   They will be installing the system into engines and vehicles in the
   next phase of their project.
   [1486192048_a40c84067e.jpg?v=0]
   BMW has a system for 2010 that would be 2-3% more efficient (possible
   commercial release)
   [19]The DOE presentation on thermoelectronic improvement of vehicles.
   The DOE Timeline is to introduce in production personal vehicles in
   the 2011 to 2014.
   [20]From a General Motors presentation on thermoelectronics
   10% fuel economy improvement for a full size truck
   - 1.65 kW - city
   - 2.5 kW - Highway
   350 W is the minimum requirement (remember University of Michigan
   expects to have 100W systems at the end of the year)
   - equal to the base electrical load of today's generator on FTP, and
   would improve its composite Urban/Highway fuel economy by ~ 3%
   Exhaust recovery can meet the 350 W requirement with existing
   materials with high starting purities but at high cost.
   GM feels radiator recovery alone will not meet the 350 W requirement
   and is cost prohibitive.
   [1486192052_f8b4d5c5b3.jpg?v=0]
   Thermoelectronics need to be efficient and affordable. If you save
   $2000 in fuel costs per year with 10% more efficiency then the $/W
   needs to be reasonable.
   [21]Quantum well base thermoelectronic presentation
   Projected quantum well modules at less then 30 cents per Watt.
   Other applications
   [1486192034_334c05f368.jpg?v=0]
   Current prototype: USS DOLPHIN AGSS 555 Thermoelectric Air
   Conditioning Test for Silent Running submarine.
   R134-a refrigerant gas was universally adopted as the replacement for
   Freon.
   However R134-a has 1,300 times* the global warming potential of CO2
   Thermoelectronics can replace R134-a for air conditioners
   Four Dispersed Solid StateThermoelectric Coolers/Heaters could
   comfortably cool or heat 5 occupants with 400 to 900 Watts of cooled
   or heated air.
   Target is by 2020 to have 90% of US Personal Vehicle Fleet with a
   Thermoelectic Generator Powering a thermoelectric Cooler/Heater to
   replace R-134-a Refrigerant Gas Air Conditioners. Save 1.02 M bbls/day
   or 5% of US gasoline usage. Reduce the equivalent of 156 Million
   Metric Tons of CO2e Annually.

   Existing Thermoelectric drink coolers could be improved for better
   full sized refidgerators
   [1486192044_11f01d0fe0.jpg?v=0]
   Thermoelectronics could reduce the weight of cooling and batteries for
   soldiers by 30%.
   Current Vehicular Applications of Thermoelectrics
   -Climate Control Seats
   -Drink Cooler/Warmer
   -Thermal Control of Electronics
   Near Term Applications (2011 - 2015)
   -Thermoelectric Generators Harvesting Engine Waste Heat
   -Thermoelectric Coolers/Heaters replacing Air Conditioners
   -Integrated Thermoelectric Generators & Coolers/Heaters Heavy Duty
