Abstract:
The present invention concerns a thermoelectric device ( 1 ) comprising a casing ( 3 ) of tubular shape in which extends a plurality of modules ( 2 ) of thermoelectric elements ( 8 ) extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the casing ( 3 ), each module ( 2 ) being constituted of: a plurality of thermoelectric elements ( 8 ) having a cylinder or right prism shape with a central opening, a first fluid being intended to circulate through the central opening, and a second fluid being intended to circulate around the exterior periphery, and an enclosure ( 10 ) capping said thermoelectric elements ( 8 ) and including at least an intake ( 11 ) for the second fluid and a discharge ( 12 ) for said second fluid, the number and the dimensions of said thermoelectric element modules ( 2 ) being optimized as a function of the ratio between the volume of the thermoelectric elements ( 8 ) and the volume of the casing ( 3 ), the thickness of the enclosure ( 10 ) and the distance between two adjacent modules ( 2 ).

Claim (Index 12):
The device as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein said enclosure is constituted of at least two fractions of tubes of right circular or polygonal section and closed at its ends by a respective washer of complementary shape including at least two lugs extending outward from the periphery of said washer so as to form at least two slots between said tube fractions.
