Abstract

The invention provides a thermoelectric conversion device, a preparation method thereof and a thermoelectric conversion system. The thermoelectric conversion device comprises a first electrode; the P-type element and the N-type element are located on the surface of one side of the first electrode and electrically connected with the first electrode; the second electrodes are located on the sides, away from the first electrode, of the P-type element and the N-type element respectively; the first heat conducting plate is positioned on the first electrode and deviates from the P-type element and the N-type element; the second heat conducting plate is positioned on the second electrode and deviates from the P-type element and the N-type element; the microstructure is located on the surface of the first heat-conducting plate and / or the second heat-conducting plate, the direction from the first surface of the microstructure to the second surface of the microstructure is the same as the direction from the first heat-conducting plate to the second heat-conducting plate, and the area of the first surface is smaller than that of the second surface. The microstructure realizes directional regulation and control of heat flow in the thermoelectric conversion device, so that the temperature difference between the two ends of the thermoelectric conversion device is increased, and the thermoelectric conversion efficiency or refrigeration power of the thermoelectric conversion device is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of thermoelectric conversion, in particular to a thermoelectric conversion device, a preparation method thereof, and a thermoelectric conversion system. Background technique [0002] Thermoelectric material is a non-polluting green energy material that directly converts thermal energy and electrical energy using the thermoelectric effect. Thermoelectric materials can use temperature differences to generate electricity without mechanical components and chemical reactions; they can also use voltage differences to cool without compressors or refrigerants such as Freon. This makes thermoelectric conversion devices an ideal no-vibration, no-noise, no-leakage, small-sized, and environment-friendly power supply and refrigerator. In recent years, they have been widely used in industrial waste heat, geothermal power generation, and wind-solar combined heat and power for clean energy. , intelligent buildings and comm...
