Alkali-metal thermal to electric converter
text:
An alkali-metal thermal-to-electric converter is a thermally regenerative electrochemical device for the direct conversion of heat to electrical energy. It is characterized by high potential efficiencies and no moving parts except for the working fluid, which make it a candidate for space power applications. It was invented by Joseph T. Kummer and Neill Weber at Ford in 1966, and is described in US Patents 3404036, 3458356, 3535163 and 4049877.
