Abstract
This dataset presents a comprehensive collection of measurements from a Thermoelectric Generator (TEG) energy harvesting prototype, equipped with nine PT100 temperature sensors and detailed recordings of voltage and current outputs. Collected over a 12-month period starting in October 2022, the data provide insights into the performance of the TEG under varying environmental conditions. The measurements, recorded at 10-second intervals, include temperature readings from different components of the TEG system as well as voltage and current data, essential for evaluating the energy conversion efficiency of the device.
Summary:
This dataset comprises detailed measurements from a Thermoelectric Generator (TEG) energy harvesting prototype. The data were collected over a 12-month period, starting in October 2022, and include readings from 9 temperature sensors (PT100) strategically applied to the TEG prototype. In addition to temperature data, the dataset also encapsulates voltage and current values generated by the TEG.
