Hi there, I'm simulating a Thermoelectric Generator on Comsol 5.2a using the Heat Transfer(thermoelectric) and AC/DC(Electric current and circuit) modules. I am unable to find it's power input or output though. For power input, I can't seem to find the heat input variable to be plotted on the graphs, as for output I've coupled it with an external resistor, however, when I measure the external current, it does not consider the internal resistance of the TEG and simply changes in accordance with the external resistor's resistance. Could you help me with this?
