Harvesting Nanoscale Thermal Radiation Using Pyroelectric Materials
Pyroelectric energy conversion offers a way to convert waste heat directly into electricity. It makes use of the pyroelectric effect to create a flow of charge to or from the surface of a material as a result of heating or cooling. However, an existing pyroelectric energy converter can only operate at low frequencies due to a relatively small convective heat transfer rate between the pyroelectr...
متن کاملImprovement of Pyroelectric Cells for Thermal Energy Harvesting
This study proposes trenching piezoelectric (PZT) material in a thicker PZT pyroelectric cell to improve the temperature variation rate to enhance the efficiency of thermal energy-harvesting conversion by pyroelectricity. A thicker pyroelectric cell is beneficial in generating electricity pyroelectrically, but it hinders rapid temperature variations. Therefore, the PZT sheet was fabricated to p...
متن کاملPyroelectric nanogenerators for harvesting thermoelectric energy.
Harvesting thermoelectric energy mainly relies on the Seebeck effect that utilizes a temperature difference between two ends of the device for driving the diffusion of charge carriers. However, in an environment that the temperature is spatially uniform without a gradient, the pyroelectric effect has to be the choice, which is based on the spontaneous polarization in certain anisotropic solids ...
متن کاملDiesel engine exhaust emission: oxidative behavior and microstructure of black smoke soot particulate.
Soot particulate collected from a Euro III heavy duty diesel engine run under black smoke conditions was investigated using thermogravimetry, transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The characterization results are compared with those of commercial carbon black. The onset temperature toward oxidation of the diesel engine soot in...
متن کاملTemperature Field Analysis for PZT Pyroelectric Cells for Thermal Energy Harvesting
This paper proposes the idea of etching PZT to improve the temperature variation rate of a thicker PZT sheet in order to enhance the energy conversion efficiency when used as pyroelectric cells. A partially covered electrode was proven to display a higher output response than a fully covered electrode did. A mesh top electrode monitored the temperature variation rate and the electrode area. The...
