Thermo electric generation converts heat energy into electrical energy . Power generated from TEG depends on the temperature difference between hot and cold surface . To improve the efficiency of TEG, MPPT algorithm with boost converter is used . Maximum power is obtained in the system when the output resistance of the system matches with the input resistance of TEG. By modelling the power variations generated from TEG system in series and parallel were minimized . The proposed system consists of TEG with boost converter having P& O MPPT . This paper presents simulation model of TEG module using MATLAB and is successful in generating a stable output.
