Abstract
The increasing demand for energy efficiency has created a need to utilize waste heat generated in electrical and industrial systems. A significant portion of input energy is lost in the form of heat, which remains unused and reduces overall system efficiency. This study presents the design and implementation of a thermoelectric system that converts heat energy into electrical energy using Peltier modules. A controlled heating element is used to generate heat, creating a temperature difference across the thermoelectric modules. The generated voltage is directly stored in a lithium-ion battery, while an Arduino-based system is used to monitor temperature and output voltage in real time through a digital display.
Experimental analysis was carried out at different temperature levels to evaluate system performance. The results indicate a clear and consistent increase in output voltage with rising temperature, demonstrating a direct relationship between temperature difference and electrical generation. The system shows stable operation under controlled conditions and provides measurable output even at moderate temperature levels.
