300 WATT PORTABLE THERMOELECTRIC GENERATOR.

Abstract

A power unit assembly was fabricated and tested. The weight and performance are consistent with the expected results so the design has been finalized. Several different screen materials were evaluated as covers for the fan assembly to prevent damage to the fan from foreign objects. The burner was tested using regular grade diesel fuel and failed to operate properly. The problem is due to the fact that the preheater is too small. A larger preheater has been designed and is being fabricated. (Author)
