   <abstract>
    <p>In this study, a thermoelectric generator (TEG) system is designed for the generation of electricity from solar&#13;
energy. A temperature difference between surfaces of TEG must be achieved for electricity generation. Heating is provided by&#13;
a solar-powered two-phase closed thermosiphon type heat pipe. For the cooling of the other surface, a passive refrigerant&#13;
without additional energy is preferred. For cooling, a cooler with a capacity of 1200cc is designed. The passive cooler in which&#13;
the water is used as a coolant is manufactured in two sections, primary and secondary, in order to provide effective cooling and&#13;
to help the natural circulation. While only one TEG was used in many studies in the literature, it was aimed to produce more&#13;
electricity by means of a simple, easy and inexpensive design with 5 TEGs in this study. Not only have the effect of passive&#13;
cooler but also reflective use been studied experimentally. For this purpose, the system is operated in three different&#13;
conditions: non-reflective, semi-reflective and full reflective. Electrical and thermal data are automatically collected on a&#13;
computer. Data obtained from 08:00 to 15:00 were used for comparison.  </p>
