Research abstract

WE PLAN TO BUILD AND TEST A THERMOELECTRIC BATTERY CHARGER THAT IS INTEGRAL WITH A 1-QT SAUCEPAN, WITH THE THERMOELECTRIC ARRAY FIRMLY AFFIXED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PAN, YET PROTECTED FROM THE FIRE, AND THE EM-SILENT BATTERY CHARGER CIRCUITRY WITHIN THE HANDLE. SAUCEPAN, GENERATOR, CIRCUITRY, AND CABLE TOGETHER WILL WEIGH LESS THAN 5 LB. WHEN PLACED ATOP A COOKING FIRE, AND WHEN CONTAINING WATER, IT WILL PROVIDE A CONSTANT ONE-AMPERE CURRENT, SUITABLE FOR CHARGING THE BB-586/U 13.2-VOLT SEALED NICKEL CADMIUM BATTERY USED IN FIELD COMMUNICATION SETS, DISCONNECTING AUTOMATICALLY WHEN THE TEMPERATURECORRECTED BATTERY VOLTAGE INDICATES A FULL CHARGE.
