Abstract
An assembly is formed of a plurality of tubes (1, 2) for circulating a fluid. The tubes (1, 2) extend parallel to one another. The assembly is further formed of a plurality of thermoelectric elements (3) making it possible to create an electric current from a temperature gradient applied between two contact surfaces (4a, 4b) thereof. The thermoelectric elements (3) are distributed over the tubes (1, 2) with which the thermoelectric elements (3) are in contact via one (4b) of their contact surfaces. The assembly is designed so as to enable the installation of tubes for circulating another fluid, with the tubes being intended to be in contact with the thermoelectric elements (3) via the other (4a) contact surface thereof and extending in a direction that is a secant relative to the direction of extension of the tubes (1, 2). A thermoelectric device is equipped with a stack of assemblies.
