title = "A Hybrid In-Parallel TEG-TPV System for Harvesting Electrical Energy from Highly Varying High-Temperature Sources",
abstract = "In this paper, a novel heat energy harvesting system that is constructed by a combination of thermoelectric generators (TEG) and thermophotovoltaic (TPV) cells that are configured to operate in parallel is presented. The resulting hybrid TEG-TPV heat energy harvester can therefore generate significantly more electrical energy than is possible for a given TEG surface area. The hybrid TEG-TPV heat energy harvester is designed to generate electrical energy from sources with highly varying and high temperatures. The hybrid harvester is designed to provide a constant temperature gradient to TEG members and allow the TPV cells to operate within their allowable temperature range.",
