Geometrical design of thermoelectric generators based on topology optimization

SUMMARY This paper discusses an application of the topology optimization method for the design of thermoelectric generators. The proposed methodology provides the optimized geometry in accordance with various arbitrary conditions such as the types of materials, the volume of materials, and the tempe...
