The research is based on data analysis into the configuration of a thermoelectric generator device that can be installed on the IC engine exhaust tube, i.e., to collect the volume of waste heat from the exhaust by producing temperature difference in the generator using the concept of thermoelectric conversion. The arrangement of staggered fins was applied to both the heat sink and the heat absorber. The staggered pin-fin is inserted into the duct to form the heat absorber since the duct is mounted at the engine's exhaust so that heat flows into the heat absorber continuously. By increasing thermoelectric conversion, the staggered fins on the heat absorber may increase the heat-exchange surface area. In order to analyze the relationship between available power and projected power output, empirical results are obtained.
