Abstract
An energy harvesting apparatus is disclosed. An energy harvesting apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a polar fluid including molecules having an electrode dipole nature, a fluid reservoir for storing the polar fluid, a first conductive conduit communicating with the fluid reservoir, An insulation layer coated on an inner wall of the conduit and an electrical connection line connecting the fluid conduit and the first conductive conduit.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE
In general, when a liquid comes into contact with a solid surface, a surface charging phenomenon occurs naturally. As a result, the solid surface becomes a specific charge and the liquid portion in contact with the solid surface also has opposite charge.
The surface charge generated at this time determines the quantity and sign of the charge according to the characteristics of each of the liquid and the solid, and the amount of charge is determined with respect to the order existing in the commonly known charge column.
After the charge is generated, separating the liquid from the solid surface causes the surface charge to remain on the solid surface and the liquid to move with the opposite charge, resulting in the charge separation phenomenon.
By the charge separation phenomenon, the solid surface and the liquid naturally have a difference in electric potential energy, that is, a potential difference, and electric energy can be generated and used by decorating an electric circuit by connecting a liquid having a potential difference with a solid surface.
The present invention is based on the technical background as described above. In the present invention, electric charges that are charged when a liquid and a solid contact each other are separated through an external fluid flow, and an electric energy To provide a device for harvesting.
An energy harvesting apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a polar fluid including molecules having an electrode dipole nature, a fluid reservoir for storing the polar fluid, a first conductive conduit communicating with the fluid reservoir, An insulation layer coated on the inner wall of the conduit and an electrical conductor connecting the fluid conduit and the first conductive conduit.
The apparatus may further include a fluid driver for generating a fluid flow between the first conductive conduit and the fluid reservoir.
Also, a fluid drive may be connected to the first conductive conduit or the fluid reservoir.
Further, the fluid driving portion may be a manual pump.
Further, the polar fluid may be any one of water, electrolytic solution, ethanol, or acetone.
The fluid reservoir may also be a second conductive conduit in the form of a first conductive conduit.
Also, the material of the first conductive conduit may be any one of aluminum, copper, iron, lead, zinc, tin, silver, and gold.
In addition, the material of the insulating layer can be made of any one of polymeric materials, silk, wool, paper, cotton or rubber.
The coating thickness of the insulating layer may be more than 0 mm and not more than 1 mm.
Further, an electric device may be provided in the lead wire.
Embodiments of the present invention can generate electrical energy by forming a flow of charge by inducing the separation of the surface charge generated by contacting the inner wall of the first conductive conduit with an insulating material and a fluid in contact with the insulating material.
