We considered wide temperature range and heat conductor lengths from nano- to macro-scale.
A good thermoelectric needs to be two things: a good electrical conductor and a bad heat conductor.
Engineers at MIT have developed a polymer thermal conductor — a plastic material that, however counterintuitively, works as a heat conductor, dissipating heat rather than insulating it.
Recently, a new target version with metallic heat conductor of minimal length and a long gravity-assisted heat pipe section was constructed.
The effects of heating are most pronounced in the structure with a thick insulating polymeric substrate which is a poor heat conductor and a single heat sink on the bottom of the substrate.
