Hi,

I'm working on a project to extract heat energy from vehicle exhaust gasses using Solid and Gel type thermoelectric modules. For this I've designed a heat exchanger with flat surface so that we can install Thermometric Modules on it. The temperature difference will create current in the Peltier modules on the surface.

Can someone help me in getting the right boundary conditions for this simulation considering we are using exhaust of a 4 cylinder gasoline vehicle ?

Is it possible to couple Fluent with Thermo Electric System in Ansys ? (I've no idea how system coupling works)

I was thinking to use temperature results from Fluent as input in thermo electric system so we can estimate the power generation of different TECs.

Thanks
