Abstract

Device fabrication using simulation process and modeling are one of the most leading researches in present days. Here, the Thermoelectric Device performance is analyzed with basic coding using MATLAB software. The MATLAB based fabrication of thermoelectric generator lead to analysis the power efficiency and ZT performance for the materials (Cu2Bi2Te3 and Cu2Sb2Te3). All parameters were optimized and the function output (Figure of Merit) was 2.59 (no unit) for Cu2Bi2Te3 and 0.657 (no unit) for Cu2Sb2Te3.
