This paper combines heat transfer and thermoelectric conversion techniques to create a thermoelectric generator device for a single-cylinder, four-stroke petrol engine. The system is made up of heat absorbers, thermoelectric generator, Thermoelectric Generator (TEG) modules, and an external heat sink. To achieve the goal of absorbing heat and increasing thermoelectric conversion efficiently, the heat exchanger surface area and heat-exchange time could be increased. Thermoelectric generators convert waste heat into energy directly. This technology will also help energy conversion systems work better overall. Despite the fact that TEG production is limited by available technologies, feasible electricity generation is possible from waste heat generated by automobiles. The effect of using passive heat sinks and heat absorbers made of a flat plate with fins of various cross-sectional areas and materials with forced convection heat transfer, as well as how current, voltage, and power are varied, is investigated and presented in tabular format in the current numerical analysis. By plotting the results of the analytical and numerical method on relevant graph, the results of both methods were compared.
