Electrokinetic energy conversion efficiency in nanofluidic channels.
We theoretically evaluate the prospect of using electrokinetic phenomena to convert hydrostatic energy to electrical power. An expression is derived for the energy conversion efficiency of a two-terminal fluidic device in terms of its linear electrokinetic response properties. For a slitlike nanochannel of constant surface charge density, we predict that the maximum energy conversion efficiency...
متن کاملEnergy conversion efficiency in nanotube optoelectronics.
We present theoretical performance estimates for nanotube optoelectronic devices under bias. Current-voltage characteristics of illuminated nanotube p-n junctions are calculated using a self-consistent nonequilibrium Green's function approach. Energy conversion rates reaching tens of percent are predicted for incident photon energies near the band gap energy. In addition, the energy conversion ...
متن کاملEnergy conversion efficiency in human left ventricle.
BACKGROUND Left ventricular mechanical efficiency is one of the most important measures of left ventricular pump performance. Several clinical studies, however, have shown that mechanical efficiency does not fall substantially as the heart fails. To clarify the insensitivity of mechanical efficiency to the change in pump performance, we analyzed human left ventricular mechanical efficiency, app...
متن کاملEfficiency of energy conversion for a piezoelectric power harvesting system
This paper studies the energy conversion efficiency for a rectified piezoelectric power harvester. An analytical model is proposed, and an expression of efficiency is derived under steady-state operation. In addition, the relationship among the conversion efficiency, electrically induced damping and ac–dc power output is established explicitly. It is shown that the optimization criteria are dif...
متن کاملA Note on Efficiency for Conversion of Light Energy.
A few years ago I gave a method, mainly based on the second law of thermodynamics, for calculating the maximum efficiency with which light energy can be converted into so-called high grade energy such as work or Gibbs free energy (1) [cf. also (2)]. This efficiency approached zero with decreasing light intensity and with increasing temperature of the system for conversion of light energy. An es...
