Abstract

See full text

A thermoelectric power generation system of the present disclosure includes first and second thermoelectric power generation units. Each of the thermoelectric power generation units includes a plurality of tubular thermoelectric generators. The thermoelectric power generation units comprises a vessel in which the tubular thermoelectric generator is accommodated and a breakdown determination unit. The vessel includes a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet, and an opening. The fluid inlet and the fluid outlet are used to cause a fluid to flow in the vessel. The tubular thermoelectric generator is inserted in the opening. The breakdown determination unit that determines whether the thermal power generation unit breaks down based on power generation efficiency that is obtained using a temperature difference between the fluid inflowing from the fluid inlet and the fluid discharging from the fluid outlet and the electromotive force generated by the tubular thermoelectric generator.
