Wire brushes used to connect positive and negative legs of semiconductor thermoelectric generators to power leads and heat sources and sinks. Brushes are flexible thermal and electrical conductors that readily accommodate expansion and contraction of legs with changing temperature. Thus, direct conductive coupling between heat source and sink allowed, in contrast to older and less efficient method of having to couple radiatively to accommodate thermal expansion.
