1. Introduction:
The principle is governed by
simple
solid
state
devices
called
thermoelectric power generators which are
capable of conversion of heat energy into
electrical energy. Now a day we are mostly
using refrigerator/air conditioning system.
This system consumes more power and
produce a work output. At the same time the
small amount of energy is wasted in the form
of heat due to refrigeration effect. The method
of conservation is the heat energy into
electrical energy by using the Thermo Electric
Generator (TEG).

COP = (h1 - h4) / (h2 - h1).
= (187.397 84.868) / (210 187.397)
COP = 4.54.

A thermoelectric generator
convert heat (Q) into electrical power (P) with
efficiency .
W = 5.4 KW.
Heat rejected to the condenser q1 = w + q2
Power generated,
= 5.4 + 24.5
Pout = Qin.
Q1 = 29.9 KW.
Where,
= thermal efficiency
Pout = measured power output of the
device (watts)
Qin = measured input heat to the device
(watts).

In this system,
Hot side temperature Th = T3 = 500 C.
Cold side temperature
Tc = 100C
There fore
Efficiency of TEG = 2.21 %.
3.6. Electricity produced from waste heat:
The
designed
thermo
electric
generator (TEG) is fixed on the condenser in
the refrigeration system. It can be placed
suitable to carry the heat rejected in the
condenser of the refrigeration system.
The overall view of the energy
recovery system is shown in the figure.
Thermo electric generator is also connected to
the battery for the purpose of store the
electricity produced from the generator.

4. CONCLUSION:
The heat wasted in refrigeration
system is utilized in a best way. It can more
suitable of energy conservation and to
produce the electricity in efficient way. This
can suitable for large cycle industries and
food processing unit.
