Claim:
1. A water-and-air-cooled thermoelectric device comprising: a plurality of water inlet pipes disposed in parallel at an upper side of the thermoelectric device, the water inlet pipes including a first hot water pipe that has a hot water inlet at one side thereof and a first cool water pipe that has a cool water inlet at one side thereof; a plurality of water outlet pipes disposed in parallel at a lower side of the thermoelectric device and corresponding to the water inlet pipes, the water outlet pipes including a second hot water pipe that has a hot water outlet at one side thereof and a second cool water pipe that has a cool water outlet at one side thereof; a plurality of cool water tubes connecting the first cool water pipe and the second cool water pipe and spaced apart continuously at an interval in a left-right direction; a plurality of hot water tubes adjacent to the cool water tubes and spaced apart continuously at an interval in the left-right direction, and connecting the first hot water pipe and the second hot water pipe; a plurality of thermoelectric elements disposed between the cool water tubes and the hot water tubes and the thermoelectric elements converting an energy which is obtained by a heat exchange into electrical energy; a plurality of heat pipes spaced apart at an interval in an up-down direction between the plurality of the hot water tubes and extending perpendicular to the hot water tubes at one side of the hot water tubes; and heat-resistant ceramic plates disposed between the thermoelectric elements and the hot water tubes, wherein the thermoelectric elements are in surface-to-surface contact with the cool water tubes and the heat-resistant ceramic plates.
