ABSTRACT:
A thermoelectric battery comprises a thermoelectric module in the form of a matrix of rods of alternately p- and n-type semi-conductor material connected together in the manner of a thermopile. The thermoelectric module is suspended in a casing in contact at one end with a heat sink and having attached at the other end a radio-isotope fuel capsule. The attachment of the fuel capsule is supported against shocks or rapid accelerations by a combination of spring mounting and a fibre spider.
