Abstract The technology used in aerospace applications is very advanced regarding performance and effectiveness; however, the aerospace field is under continuous improvement. In particular, some of the main current goals are related to the reduction of costs and the building of more eco-friendly aircraft and spacecrafts. One possible way to achieve these objectives is the use of thermoelectric devices. Throughout this thesis work the thermoelectric effects and their practical applications are introduced. Moreover, how the prescription of a magnetic field can improve the performance of the systems that take advantage of these effects is studied. A study of the thermoelectric, thermomagnetic and galvanomagnetic effects and their interaction is performed and their applications in the aerospace and aeronautic field are considered. The COP (Coefficient of Performance), an estimator of the efficiency, with and without magnetic field is analyzed.
