Abstract

The invention relates to a power generating device, comprising at least one thermocouple, which has a first surface for absorbing heat and a second surface for dissipating heat and is designed to generate electric energy based on a temperature difference between the first and second surfaces, at least one heat supply region, which supplies heat to the first surface of the at least one thermocouple, and at least one heat dissipating region, which dissipates heat from the second surface of the at least one thermocouple.
