Abstract
A projectile of the type containing a payload and a heat source spaced from said payload and activated while the projectile is in flight, is provided with a power-generating device comprising a number of thermo elements which are connected in series at a plurality of hot and cold junctions. The hot junctions are disposed adjacent the heat source within said projectile, and the cold junctions are spaced from said heat source and located adjacent the payload. The heat source may constitute a source of radiant energy associated with the transmitter portion of a proximity fuze, and the power-generating device may in turn energize the receiver portion of the fuze to control initiation of the payload.
