Thermoelectric devices are devices that can convert heat into electrical energy. Researchers have now developed a thermoelectric device composed of organic materials that can generate electricity from ...

Scientists in Japan have developed a new organic device that can harvest energy from heat. Unlike other thermoelectric generators, this one works at room temperature without a heat gradient. Usually, ...

This new organic thermoelectric device can convert room temperature heat, which is abundant in living environments and was previously not considered a possible energy source, into usable electrical ...

We've already heard about hoses that get wrapped around existing hot water pipes, using heat radiated from the pipe to heat water inside the hose. A new wrap-around device, however, uses that same ...

Combustion engines, the engines in gas-powered cars, only use a quarter of the fuel's potential energy while the rest is lost as heat through exhaust. Now, a study demonstrates how to convert exhaust ...

Temperature plays a pivotal role in the environment, directly affecting the survival, function, and overall health of organisms by shaping their physiological and behavioral responses. Likewise, ...

Three kits provide the necessary thermoelectric generators and boost power converters to evaluate energy harvesting for solid-to-air, liquid-to-liquid, and liquid-to-air applications. EverGen kits ...

Chinese researchers have created the world’s first rubber band that converts body heat into electricity. The breakthrough could allow smartwatches and other wearable devices to charge automatically ...
