Advanced thermoelectric energy recovery system in light duty and heavy duty vehicles: Analysis on technical and marketing challenges

Thermoelectric materials - materials that exploit a phenomenon in which the application of heat to combination of certain metals induces an electric current- are emerging as potentially important systems for increasing fuel efficiency and decreasing emissions in future automotive vehicles. The issue...
