DEVICE FOR THE DIRECT THERMOELECTRIC CONVERSION Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC H02N10/00 H01L37/04 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: thermoelectric conversion is carried out by periodic magnetic state change of the thermally sensitive ferromagnetic material heated up to the Curie point in the paraprocess phase that provoke the generation of the supplementary magnetic flux that is converted to electric energy. The direct thermoelectric conversion device has magnetic circuit 1, in the gap of which the thermally sensitive tube shaped ferromagnetic element 2 is located. The magnetic field source 3 represents the ferrite magnet of the same linear dimensions and the thermally sensitive ferromagnetic element with the V-shaped pit from the pole sidelines, placed in axial alignment into the thermally sensitive ferromagnetic element. Output 4 and input 5 windings are placed on the magnetic circuit. The device has the thermally sensitive ferromagnetic element heating unit 6, field generator 7, plug into the input winding 5, and electric energy accumulating mechanism 8, plug into the output winding 4.

EFFECT: efficiency upgrading.
