Determine temperature of thermoelectric generator


 A proposed solar collector installation has a frontal area (exposed to the sun) of 50.0 m2 and combines a thermoelectric generator with the air heating system of a building. The thermoelectric generator produces dc power with an efficiency of 5.00%. Solar radiation provides a net heat transfer rate to the absorber plate of 1000. W/m2. The incoming air is at 18.0°C, and to obtain “good” operating efficiency, the exit air temperature must be maintained at 30.0°C. (Helpful Hint/Note: The solar generator power output depends on heat transfer rate, area exposed to the sun, and its efficiency. Use the MERB equation and note no work transport occurs)
