Hi Piyush,

I'm working on modeling of thermoelectric generation in COMSOL, I could send you my basic model which contains the necessary PDE's and boundary conditions if you would like. What in particular are you working on?

- Dave

Hello, I'm also working on a Comsol model for a thermoelectric cooler (modules connected electrically in series and thermally in parallel) using the PDE mode. In postprocessing, the temperature profile seems appropriate but I can't seem to obtain the right distribution for the voltage. I tried to change the boundary conditions and also the coefficients of the [V] matrix (i think for the n-type the coefficients for V should be minus) but still there's something wrong with somewhere in the model. I appreciate if you could send your model to check and correct my model (I'm using 3.5a).

I also wonder if the whole thermal-electric coupled problem could be solved by PDE mode only or do I also need to add General Heat transfer / Conductive Media DC electrostatics to specify the electrical and temperature boundary conditions correctly?

I appreciate any help or suggestions.

Thank you.

Hello Dave,

I'm also working on thermoelectric generator and just started to use COMSOL. I have some doubts regarding boundary conditions, so it would be good if you send me you basic model, PDE with boundary setups.

Thank you very much.

Dear all,

I just become to the COMSOL member since I wanted to use in the Thermoelectric model.
Could you please help me to give a suggestion to attend some Comsol training course which I should take before working with comsol thermoelectric model?

Thanks a lot,

Hello,

I am a beginner in COMSOL and want to design a Thermoelectric Generator in it. Could I please get some reference model which would be helpful for my project? I am working on vertical/vertical type TEG in particular.

Any suggestion will be of great help.

Thanks a lot,

HI Dave and Piyush,

I am working on thermoelectric generators and would like to get some help from you. If any one of you could send me your basic model with the PDE's and boundary conditions it would be really helpful to me as I am starting from Scratch.

Thanks,

Hello!!

I am also trying to model a thermo-electric generator and I would love to have
one basic model to get ideas from!

hello everyone,
I just begin to learn silumation of thermoelectric generation in COMSOL. I want to get some Case Studies
which include coefficient form PDE. My email address is 512539809@qq.com.
I will appreciate any help

Hi, I'm working on the TE effect, I succeed in succeed in solving the problem using the PDE mode. I'll be happy to help you if you need.

Hi, thank you for your enthusiasm firstly, can you send me some case studies of PDF file format.,The more detailed, the better.

hi, can you send me your basic model which contains the necessary PDE's and boundary conditions.I will appreciate your help.

Dear Dario Mastrolillo,

I have just started to work on comsol modelling of TE devices and would be grateful to you if you could help me out with the modelling part. It would be really helpful if you could email me so that I could get my doubts clarified. My email address is psks006@gmail.com

Thanks,
With Warm Regards,
Karthik

Hello,

I am interested in seeing what you have for the Thermoelectric effect. I have created the physics myself, but I am having some difficulties. is this still a possibility?


Thanks in advanced,
