    Abstract: A disclosed method includes serially moving a plurality of dies through a series of interconnected chambers that are selectively sealable from each other. Through the series of interconnected chambers, each of the dies is introduced into a controlled gas environment, each of the dies is introduced into a controlled temperature environment, a process-environment-sensitive material is pressurized in each of the dies, and each of the dies is cooled. A disclosed apparatus includes a series of interconnected chambers that are selectively sealable from each other. A first one of the chambers is configured to establish a controlled gas environment therein, a second one of the chambers is configured to establish a controlled temperature environment therein, a third one of the chambers is configured to pressurize a process-environment-sensitive material and a fourth one of the chambers is configured to cool the process-environment-sensitive material.

    Abstract: An electrical power generation system consists of a ceramic hot face liner of a gas path enclosure thermally and mechanically connected to thermoelectric elements mounted on a conformal thermally conducting layer on the liner. Cooling channels connected to the backside of the thermoelectric elements provide a thermal gradient across the elements and resulting electrical power output. Clamps to maintain thermal and physical contact of all elements in the system are provided to maximize power generation.
