What's the difference between thermoelectric and thermovoltaic?
Thermoelectric
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to thermoelectricity; as, thermoelectric currents.
Example Sentences:

(10) The measurement of the blood flow was taken from two sites of the esophagus by using the thermoelectrical method, the upper one was located at 2 cm distal to V. hemiazygos, the lower one 2 cm proximal to the esophageal hiatus of the diaphragm.
(11) The temperature and electric conditions in the thermoelectric thermoregulating system were optimized, which enabled extremal values of their basic parameters to be obtained.
(12) We report a case of subacute myopathy in a 47 years old man engaged on boiler maintenance at an oil-fired thermoelectric power station.
(13) New method for optimized computing thermoelectric coolers is proposed for the case of variable temperatures within heat-transfer media.
(14) The authors reported the results of measurements of the blood flow in subcutaneous fat and 3 types of tumors (sarcoma 37, Lewis carcinoma, melanoma B16) by a thermoelectric method during local hyperthermia of mouse limbs.
(15) To explain this phenomenon, thermoelectrical measurements during, and histological examinations after experimental cryotherapy were performed.
(16) When using the conventional diathermy generator in surgery failure to apply the plate electrode can always present a serious risk of a thermoelectrical burn at any point where the patient makes contact with an earthed object on the operating table.
(17) The pressure absorption coefficient, measured via the transient thermoelectric technique, was 0.038 Np cm-1 at low intensities (below 100 W cm-2 SPTP) and rose to approximately 0.117 Np cm-1 at 750 W cm-2 SPTP intensity.

At peak force in individual contractions of norepinephrine (NE) dose-response experiments, theta was changed from 37 to 39 degrees C. Active and resting wall tension (Tw) were increased, and the mean effective dose (ED50) was decreased in the SHR aorta with and without endothelium.
Thermovoltaic
Definition:
(a.) Of or relating to heat and electricity; especially, relating to thermal effects produced by voltaic action.
