An analysis of the thermoelectric characteristics of certain recently discovered materials is carried out in this investigation. The alloy of iron, vanadium, tungsten, and aluminum (Fe2V0.8W0.2Al) applied to a silicon crystal is compared to new inorganic thermoelectric materials, which are mosly oxides like NaCO2O4. For both materials, the thermoelectric effects, Seebeck effect, Peltier effect, Thomson effect, and Kelvin relations are described. The cooling rate's influence on the energy balance is also assessed. The traditional thermoelectric materials provided are mostly made up of toxic, rare and/or expensive elements, which makes large-scale thermoelectric generator integration difficult. In recent decades, research has shifted toward the development of novel materials with a better price-to-performance ratio. Despite a low conversion yield, the family of oxides offers significant benefits in this respect, which are particularly evident at high temperatures. The findings of our study indicated that Fe2V0.8W0.2 applied to a silicon crystal has good thermoelectric characteristics. A sufficient merit factor was found in the new substance under investigation.
