Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Thermal energy can be harvested using thermoelectric power generators based on the Seebeck effect. In this research, flexible TEPGs were created using conductive fabrics: carbon fabric (CAF), nickel-copper fabric (NCF), and silver fabric (AGF); using the π-type module arrangement. A preliminary prototype was made by sewing the fabrics together, which was then measured for its thermoelectric properties. Contact resistance became a problem for its poor performance. A copper tape-based prototype was developed to lower the contact resistance. Compared to the sewed prototype, the thermoelectric properties improved while the total internal resistance of the device increased due to a thinner electrode.
