Abstract

The paper deals with the issues of direct conversion of thermal energy to electric one due to the use of the thermoelectricity effect to provide independent operation of a cathodic protection station when heat transfer fluids flow through pipelines. The experimental setup description, applied techniques and procedure, and the experimental results are presented. A possibility of generating electricity using thermoelectricity effect for a cathodic protection station independent power supply source is demonstrated.
