Description

B E S C H R E I B U N G  DESCRIPTION
Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung mit einem thermoeJektrischen Generator Electricity generating device with a thermoelectric generator
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung mit einem thermoelektrischen Generator gemäß den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffes des Patentanspruches 1. The invention relates to a power generating device with a thermoelectric generator according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
Thermoelektrische Generatoren, die einen Temperaturunterschied zur Stromerzeugung ausnutzen, sind grundsätzlich bekannt. Thermoelectric generators that exploit a temperature difference for power generation are known in principle.
Allerdings haben diese thermoelektrischen Generatoren den Nachteil geringer Wirkungsgrade, sodass je nach Anwendungsfall nicht ausreichend elektrische Energie für einen Verbraucher bereitgestellt werden kann. Es besteht jedoch bei mobilen Anwendungen, insbesondere bei Fahrzeugen, insbesondere bei Arbeitsfahrzeugen, das Bedürfnis, von einer eigenen Fahrzeugstromversorgung unabhängig zu sein. Außerdem besteht der Wunsch, Batterien, die der Stromversorgung am Ort des Verbrauchers dienen und die ausgewechselt werden müssen, zu vermeiden. However, these thermoelectric generators have the disadvantage of low efficiencies, so that depending on the application not enough electrical energy can be provided for a consumer. However, there is a need in mobile applications, especially in vehicles, especially for work vehicles, to be independent of its own vehicle power supply. In addition, there is a desire to avoid batteries that serve the power supply at the place of the consumer and need to be replaced.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung mit einem thermoelektrischen Generator hinsichtlich ihrer Effektivität zu verbessern. The invention is therefore based on the object to improve a power generating device with a thermoelectric generator in terms of their effectiveness.
Diese Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst. This object is solved by the features of claim 1.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass der an sich bekannte thermoelektrische Generator mit zwei voneinander getrennten Anbauteiien versehen ist, wobei die beiden Anbauteile voneinander unterschiedliche Wärmeeigenschaften aufweisen. Die Grundidee ist also die Nutzung eines oder auch mehrerer thermoelektrischer Generatoren in Kombination mit zumindest zwei, vorzugsweise genau zwei bezüglich ihrer Wärmeeigenschaften unterschiedlicher Körper. Diese Körper sind konstruktiv unterschiedlich bezüglich ihrer Wärmekapazität und des Grades der Wärmeaufnahme bzw. Wärmeabgabe durch Wärmestrahlung und Konvektion über die Zeit. Das Ziel ist es, eine zeitlich wechselnde Außentemperatur einer Umgebung, vorzugsweise der Einsatzumgebung der Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung bzw. des Fahrzeuges, in einen durch den zumindest einen thermoelektrischen Generator nutzbaren Temperaturunterschied Delta T abzubilden! Durch die beiden Anbauteile, die voneinander getrennt sind, wird in vorteilhafter Weise der Temperaturunterschied vergrößert, der auf den thermoelektrischen Generator einwirkt, sodass dadurch die elektrische Effizienz gesteigert wird und somit ein größeres Maß an elektrischer Energie am Ausgang des thermoelektrischen Generators bereitgestellt werden kann. According to the invention, it is provided that the known per se thermoelectric generator is provided with two separate Anbauteiien, wherein the two attachments have mutually different thermal properties. The basic idea is therefore the use of one or even several thermoelectric generators in combination with at least two, preferably exactly two bodies with different thermal properties. These bodies are structurally different with respect to their heat capacity and the degree of heat absorption or heat release by heat radiation and convection over time. The goal is to image a temporally changing outside temperature of an environment, preferably the environment of use of the power generating device or of the vehicle, into a temperature difference delta T which can be used by the at least one thermoelectric generator! By the two attachments, which are separated from each other, the temperature difference is increased in an advantageous manner, which acts on the thermoelectric generator, thereby increasing the electrical efficiency and thus a greater amount of electrical energy can be provided at the output of the thermoelectric generator.
Weitere Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben, aus denen sich entsprechende Vorteile ergeben und die darüber hinaus im Folgenden beschrieben und anhand der Figuren erläutert sind. Further embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims, from which corresponding advantages result and which are furthermore described below and explained with reference to the figures.
Figur 1 zeigt in einer Prinzipdarstellung, soweit im Einzelnen dargestellt, eine Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung 1 , die einen an sich bekannten thermoelektrischen Generator 2 verwendet. Dieser thermoelektrische Generator 2 hat eine heiße und eine kalte Seite. Auf der einen Seite ist ein erstes Anbauteil 3 und auf der anderen Seite ein zweites Anbauteil 4 angeordnet, sodass diese beiden Teile 3, 4 mit der heißen und kalten Seite des thermoelektrischen Generators 2 vorzugsweise flächig verbunden sind. Diese in Figur 1 dargestellte Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung 1 befindet sich in einer Umgebung 5, bei der es sich um den Einsatzraum der Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung 1 , aber auch um einen abgeschlossenen Kontrollraum, in dem eine Außentemperatur TA herrscht, die sich verändern kann, abgeordnet ist. in Figur 2 ist gezeigt, dass zwischen den Anbauteilen 3, 4 ein Isolator 6 angeordnet ist. Hierbei handelt es sich um eine ineinander gebaute Anordnung, wobei das Anbauteil 3 sowohl den thermoelektrischen Generator 2 als auch das Anbauteil 4 enthält. Das Anbauteil 4 ist also innerhalb des Isolators 6, der wiederum innerhalb des Anbauteiles 3 angeordnet ist, angeordnet, sodass die beiden Anbauteile 3, 4 durch einen wärmetechnischen Isolator verbunden sind. FIG. 1 shows in a schematic representation, as far as shown in detail, a power generating device 1 which uses a known thermoelectric generator 2. This thermoelectric generator 2 has a hot and a cold side. On the one hand a first attachment 3 and on the other side a second attachment 4 is arranged, so that these two parts 3, 4 are preferably connected flat to the hot and cold side of the thermoelectric generator 2. This power generating device 1 shown in Figure 1 is located in an environment 5, which is seconded to the mission space of the power generating device 1, but also to a closed control room in which an outside temperature TA prevails, which can change. FIG. 2 shows that an insulator 6 is arranged between the add-on parts 3, 4. This is a nested arrangement, wherein the attachment 3 includes both the thermoelectric generator 2 and the attachment 4. The attachment 4 is thus disposed within the insulator 6, which in turn is disposed within the attachment part 3, so that the two attachments 3, 4 are connected by a thermoelectric insulator.
Figur 3 zeigt die Prinzipdarste!lung einer Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung 1 mit einem analogen Aufbau, wie er in Figur 1 dargestellt ist. Zusätzlich sind der thermoelektrische Generator 2 mit seinen Anbauteilen 3, 4 innerhalb eines Gehäuses 7 angeordnet. Das Gehäuse 7 befindet sich wiederum in der Umgebung 5 und oder in dem schon erwähnten Kontrollraum. Innerhalb des Gehäuses 7 sind die darin angeordneten Elemente in einem Vakuum angeordnet. Der thermoelektrische Generator 2 weist elektrische Anschlüsse 9 auf, die aus dem Gehäuse 7 herausgeführt sind und an dem eine Spannung nach dem Seebeck-Effekt (Useebeck) mit verbesserter elektrischer Leistung zur Verfügung gestellt wird. Über die elektrischen Anschlüsse 9 ist die Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung 1 zum Beispiel mit einem Wandler, insbesondere einem DC-DC-Wandler verbunden. Am Ausgang der elektrischen Anschlüsse 9 bzw. am Ausgang des Wandlers 10 steht somit eine Energieversorgung für insbesondere mobile Anwendungen mit gesteigerter Effizienz zur Verfügung. FIG. 3 shows the schematic diagram of a power generating device 1 with an analogous structure, as shown in FIG. In addition, the thermoelectric generator 2 with its attachments 3, 4 are arranged within a housing 7. The housing 7 is again in the environment 5 and or in the control room already mentioned. Within the housing 7, the elements arranged therein are arranged in a vacuum. The thermoelectric generator 2 has electrical connections 9, which are led out of the housing 7 and to which a voltage according to the Seebeck effect (U seebeck ) with improved electrical power is provided. Via the electrical connections 9, the power generation device 1 is connected, for example, to a converter, in particular a DC-DC converter. At the output of the electrical connections 9 or at the output of the converter 10 is thus an energy supply for particular mobile applications with increased efficiency available.
In Figur 4 ist eine weitere Ausführungsform der Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung 1 dargestellt. Dabei ist zwischen den Anbauteilen 3, 4 ein Vakuum 8 angeordnet, wobei das Anbauteil 4 an dem thermoelektrischen Generator 2 von dem Vakuum 8 umgeben ist und dieses wiederum innerhalb des Anbauteiles 3 angeordnet ist. Somit bildet das Anbauteil 3 mit seiner äußeren Oberfläche quasi ein Gehäuse, womit die Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung 1 in der Umgebung 5 oder innerhalb des Kontrollraumes angeordnet ist. Figur 5 zeigt ein Ersatzschaltbild der erfindungsgemäßen Stromerzeugungsvorrichtung 1. Die Bedeutung der einzelnen elektronischen Bauteile in diesem Ersatzschaltbild und deren Dimensionierung ist im Folgenden in der Tabelle angeführt: FIG. 4 shows a further embodiment of the power generation device 1. In this case, a vacuum 8 is arranged between the attachments 3, 4, wherein the attachment 4 is surrounded on the thermoelectric generator 2 of the vacuum 8 and this in turn is disposed within the attachment part 3. Thus, the attachment 3 forms with its outer surface quasi a housing, with which the power generating device 1 is disposed in the environment 5 or within the control room. FIG. 5 shows an equivalent circuit diagram of the power generating device 1 according to the invention. The meaning of the individual electronic components in this equivalent circuit diagram and their dimensioning are listed below in the table:
