Abstract
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make effective use of solar energy of sunlight illuminated on the road.SOLUTION: The road to be illuminated by the sun during the day will get high temperature of around 60°C in summer. In the other hand, a temperature of more than 5 meters depth underground is at 15°C on average throughout the year. A thermoelectric conversion element 701 is embedded into the road, and electric power is generated by Seebeck effect of the thermoelectric conversion element using temperatures of the road and the underground. It is noted that, for thermal circulation of underground, a thermal conductive pipe tube 702 is embedded into the underground, and a fluid such as oil is filled into the pipe 702 and circulated between the thermoelectric conversion element 701 and the underground by a pump 700, etc. to permanently generate electric power.
Description
本発明は、道路での発電に関する。
The present invention relates to power generation on a road.
道路は車両や歩行者が往来し、日中に長時間、太陽に照らされている。道路表面は夏期には高温になり、都市部ではヒートアイランド現象をおこす要因となっている。道路に照らされる太陽の日照エネルギーを有効活用することが必要。
Vehicles and pedestrians come and go on the road and are illuminated by the sun for a long time during the day. The road surface becomes hot in the summer, which causes heat island phenomenon in urban areas. It is necessary to make effective use of solar sunshine energy illuminated by roads.
道路で発電することができる。
It can generate electricity on the road.
