AbstractAdvanced, direct thermal energy conversion technologies are receiving increased research attention in order to recover waste thermal energy in advanced vehicles and industrial processes. Advanced thermoelectric (TE) systems necessarily require integrated system-level analyses to establish accurate optimum system designs. Past system-level design and analysis has relied on well-defined deterministic input parameters even though many critically important environmental and system design parameters in the above mentioned applications are often randomly variable, sometimes according to complex relationships, rather than discrete, well-known deterministic variables. This work describes new research and development creating techniques and capabilities for probabilistic design and analysis of advanced TE power generation systems to quantify the effects of randomly uncertain design inputs in determining more robust optimum TE system designs and expected outputs. Selected case studies involving stochastic TE .material properties demonstrate key stochastic material impacts on power, optimum TE area, specific power, and power flux in the TE design optimization process. Magnitudes and directions of these design modifications are quantified for selected TE system design analysis cases.

Rapid progress in modern manufacturing demands for better measurement technique with on-line characteristics. This paper presents a systematic visual solution for on-line industrial 3D measurement. The solution comprises two parts, a multi-sensor visual inspecting station (MSVIS) and a digital close-range visual inspecting station (DCVIS). MSVIS is an integrated system with many sensors. It can meet the requirement of application with sparse measuring points distributed within a large volume. DCVIS only contains two digital cameras with one or more projectors. It has high relative accuracy and a small set up volume and is suitable for applications with dense measuring points. The combined use of MSVIS and DCVIS can provide a general solution for on-line industrial 3D measurement.
