Efficiencies between 5% and 10% are pretty typical for thermoelectric devices. So getting 110W out of 2kW decay heat is about what you would expect. The RTGs on board the Voyager spacecrafts initially produced 2.4kW thermal power of which 155W were available electrically. Note that each Voyager carried three of those RTGs. |
