Abstract: Energy and environmental issues have become social problems. A thermoelectric gas stove based on Seebeck effect is designed, which converts waste heat from the stove into electric energy. Combined with this design, the cold energy of gas is used to maintain the temperature difference between the hot and cold sides of the thermoelectric generator, and preheats the gas at the same time. Temperature curve of thermoelectric generator module, the power output characteristic and the improvement of thermal efficiency by preheating have been experimentally studied. The results show that the electric power supply is 2.9 W, and the average grill temperature rises by 31.9℃ after the gas is preheated.

Key words: thermoelectric generation, gas stove, waste heat, cold energy of gas, thermal efficiency
