Abstract
Fundamental consideration of the law of thermoelectric induction is presented. The concept of similarity between the law of thermoelectric induction in electricity and Faraday’s law in electrical engineering is considered. Theoretical foundations for the use of the law of thermoelectric induction are discussed. Computer methods for the discovery of new thermoelement types different from thermocouples are described. New types of thermoelectric power converters are considered, and their advantages over thermocouples are demonstrated. Further progress in thermoelectricity due to the use of the law of thermoelectric induction is predicted.
