The output powers of the four arrangements were mathematically solved from heat transfer theory. The maximum output power of roll-cake module was practically the largest for the system of the counter flow with a single thermoelectric tube (V1C system), but 1/4 of the ideal output power (V1II system). The multiplication of thermoelectric tubes can shorten significantly the device length, although the output power decreases only a little. For example, the double vortical tubes (V2CC system) can generate 95.7% output power by 38.5% diameter, compared with the single tube (V1C system). 收起
