Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In one embodiment, a thermoelectric generator for a vehicle is provided. In particular, a thermoelectric generator is provided that includes a thermoelectric generating unit which is mounted between an exhaust gas inlet pipe through which an exhaust gas flows within and an exhaust gas outlet pipe through which the exhaust gas is discharged. The thermoelectric generating unit also includes a coolant inlet formed on one side thereof and a coolant outlet formed on the other side. More specifically, the thermoelectric generator is formed by assembling a plurality of unit modules which each have thermoelectric elements.
