Comparative study of maximum power point tracking algorithms for thermoelectric generators

Variations in load and temperature can cause a thermoelectric generator (TEG) to operate at a voltage that does not produce the maximum possible power for a given temperature difference. Therefore a maximum power point tracker (MPPT) is used to force the generator to a voltage that produces maximum...
