Description
本發明係與熱電轉換技術有關,本發明係指一種具有熱電晶片保護機制之熱電燃燒爐。 The present invention relates to thermoelectric conversion technology, and the present invention relates to a thermoelectric combustion furnace having a thermoelectric wafer protection mechanism.
氣化爐(坊間又稱燃燒爐)是一種燃燒裝置,係將生質材料(樹枝、樹葉及紙類等)作為燃料,提供使用者對熱能之運用。一般燃燒爐有單層爐與雙層爐之差異,雙層爐的爐體包含一個內桶及一個外桶,內桶作為燃燒室,外桶通常用於隔熱防止使用者燙傷。燃燒時的高溫使生質材料產生氣化效應,氣化出的氣體有可燃性氣體與不可燃性氣體,可燃性氣體主要有一氧化碳、氫、甲烷,不可燃性氣體主要有二氧化碳、氮。其中一氧化碳、氫、甲烷是相當好的燃料,傳統農家使用燃燒爐提供家庭熱能,或作為家用瓦斯燃料的來源,可供煮食、發電或取暖使用。由於氣化爐使用生質材料的特性,非常適合用在戶外活動如登山、野營等生火取暖、煮食及發電等需求,目前體積、重量縮小至可容許單人攜帶之較小型氣化爐(燃燒爐)銷售量也逐年增加中。 Gasifiers (also known as furnaces) are combustion devices that use biomass materials (branches, leaves, paper, etc.) as fuel to provide users with thermal energy. Generally, the combustion furnace has a difference between a single-layer furnace and a double-layer furnace. The furnace body of the double-layer furnace includes an inner barrel and an outer barrel, and the inner barrel serves as a combustion chamber, and the outer barrel is generally used for heat insulation to prevent burns of the user. The high temperature during combustion causes the gasification effect of the biomass material. The gasified gas has flammable gas and non-flammable gas. The flammable gas mainly contains carbon monoxide, hydrogen and methane, and the non-flammable gas mainly contains carbon dioxide and nitrogen. Among them, carbon monoxide, hydrogen and methane are quite good fuels. Traditional farmhouses use furnaces to provide household heat or as a source of household gas fuel for cooking, power generation or heating. Because the gasifier uses the characteristics of raw materials, it is very suitable for outdoor activities such as mountaineering, camping and other fire heating, cooking and power generation. At present, the volume and weight are reduced to a smaller gasifier that can be carried by a single person ( The sales volume of the burners is also increasing year by year.
一般氣化爐使用生質材料的特性,適合用在戶外活動如登山、野營等生火取暖、煮食等需求,氣化爐點火啟 動後,需持續投入生質燃料,產生熱源供取暖及煮食使用。現代人因休閒娛樂而從事登山、健行或露營等戶外活動時,除了攜帶照明用手電筒或緊急通訊無線電等基本電器用品外,越來越普及化的攜帶式3C產品如平板電腦、智慧型手機等電子裝置皆以電池作為能量來源,故戶外活動所需之充電需求逐步增加。惟因使用者於野外操作活動時,電力取得不易,須攜帶具有儲電或產電之元件,如行動電源、電池及小型發電機,供照明或3C產品充電需求。然登山健行之地點往往地處偏遠,市電或產電裝置不易到達,且使用者須攜帶多樣裝備,增加人員困擾及負擔,因此市面上有許多燃燒氣化爐附加發電裝置的產品,以滿足戶外、野外活動的充電需求。 General gasifiers use the characteristics of raw materials, suitable for outdoor activities such as mountaineering, camping, etc., heating, cooking, etc., gasifier ignition After the move, it is necessary to continuously put in the raw fuel, and generate a heat source for heating and cooking. When modern people engage in outdoor activities such as hiking, hiking or camping for leisure and entertainment, in addition to carrying basic electrical appliances such as lighting flashlights or emergency communication radios, more and more popular portable 3C products such as tablet computers, smart phones, etc. Electronic devices use batteries as a source of energy, so the demand for charging for outdoor activities is gradually increasing. However, when the user operates in the field, the power is not easy to obtain, and it is necessary to carry components with power storage or power generation, such as mobile power, batteries and small generators, for lighting or 3C product charging needs. However, the location of hiking is often remote, the utility power or power generation equipment is not easy to reach, and users must carry a variety of equipment to increase personnel troubles and burdens. Therefore, there are many products for burning gasifiers with additional power generation devices on the market to meet the outdoor. The charging needs of field activities.
一般氣化燃燒爐最常選用的發電裝置為熱電晶片(或稱致冷晶片),係利用晶片熱端(高溫端)、冷端(低溫端)兩邊之溫差產生「席貝克效應」輸出電流。具有熱電晶片之燃燒爐在生火取暖或煮食的同時,可利用燃燒物料產生之熱能轉換成電能,提供USB、手機、GPS定位系統等電子產品充電,或作為照明設備如鹵素燈、LED燈之電源使用。目前市面上具熱發電功能之燃燒爐可輸出的電能約2W至5W,電能輸出受限於熱電晶片本身轉換效率、燃燒爐體導熱與散熱設計等因素,大多僅能提供較小電量輸出使用。 The most commonly used power generation device for a gasification burner is a thermoelectric wafer (or a cryogenic wafer), which generates a "Sbeck effect" output current by the temperature difference between the hot end (high temperature end) and the cold end (low temperature end) of the wafer. The burner with the thermoelectric wafer can be converted into electric energy by using the heat energy generated by the burning material while heating or cooking, and provides charging of electronic products such as USB, mobile phones, GPS positioning systems, or as lighting equipment such as halogen lamps and LED lamps. Power usage. At present, the electric furnace with thermal power generation function can output about 2W to 5W, and the electric energy output is limited by the conversion efficiency of the thermoelectric wafer itself, the heat conduction and heat dissipation design of the combustion furnace body, and most of them can only provide a small power output.
美國專利US8297271係揭露一種使用TEG(熱電晶片)的攜行式燃燒裝置,該專利係具有一導熱棒,該導熱棒 係將爐體內部之熱量傳導至熱電晶片之熱端,使該熱端加熱速度變快,該熱電晶片冷端係連接散熱片,利用風扇將外部冷空氣吹向散熱片使熱電晶片冷端降溫,維持熱電晶片兩端溫差以提高電能轉換效率,同時把熱空氣導入燃燒爐內部以增加燃燒效率。該專利之缺點在於導熱棒將爐體內部高熱直接傳給熱電晶片,若燃燒溫度過高、超過熱電晶片之容許工作範圍,甚至使熱電晶片燒毀失效;熱電晶片之冷端、熱端兩端必須維持一定溫差才能有最佳化工作效率,熱端溫度取決於發熱源、冷端溫度取決於散熱片的散熱效率,散熱片之散熱效率則取決於散熱片材質、與空氣接觸面積、數量與配置方式,理論上散熱片的片數越多、與空氣接觸面積越大,則散熱效率越高,但片數過多會造成進氣阻力增加、反而降低散熱效果,且不同位置、不同方向的散熱片能接觸到的空氣量也不同,導致熱量分布不均影響散熱效果、降低熱電晶片轉換效率。若增加散熱片數量,體積、重量與成本勢必隨之提高,加工難度也隨之上升,不利於生產製造與銷售。 U.S. Patent No. 8,829, 271 discloses a portable combustion apparatus using a TEG (thermoelectric wafer) having a heat conducting rod, the heat conducting rod The heat inside the furnace body is transmitted to the hot end of the thermoelectric chip to make the heating end of the thermoelectric wafer faster. The cold end of the thermoelectric wafer is connected to the heat sink, and the external cold air is blown to the heat sink by the fan to cool the cold end of the thermoelectric chip. The temperature difference between the two ends of the thermoelectric wafer is maintained to improve the power conversion efficiency, and hot air is introduced into the interior of the combustion furnace to increase the combustion efficiency. The disadvantage of this patent is that the heat conducting rod directly transfers the high heat inside the furnace body to the thermoelectric chip. If the burning temperature is too high, exceeds the allowable working range of the thermoelectric chip, and even the pyroelectric chip burns out; the cold end and the hot end of the thermoelectric chip must be at both ends. Maintaining a certain temperature difference can optimize the working efficiency. The hot end temperature depends on the heat source and the cold end temperature depends on the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat sink. The heat dissipation efficiency of the heat sink depends on the heat sink material, air contact area, quantity and configuration. In theory, the more the number of heat sinks is, the larger the contact area with air is, the higher the heat dissipation efficiency is. However, the excessive number of sheets will increase the air intake resistance, but reduce the heat dissipation effect, and the heat sinks in different positions and directions. The amount of air that can be contacted is also different, resulting in uneven heat distribution affecting the heat dissipation effect and reducing the conversion efficiency of the thermoelectric wafer. If the number of heat sinks is increased, the volume, weight and cost will inevitably increase, and the processing difficulty will also increase, which is not conducive to manufacturing and sales.

一般熱電晶片之熱端、冷端均具有工作溫度範圍之限制,熱端、冷端間需保持一定的溫度差,熱電晶片才能有最佳的熱電轉換效率,因此熱電晶片的散熱機制極為重要。本發明係使用熱管作為熱電晶片冷端之傳熱介質,利用熱管傳熱效率高之優點,將熱電晶片冷端多餘的熱量迅速導出,使熱電晶片熱端、冷端之溫度差保持在該晶片設計最佳工作溫度範圍內,提高與保持熱電晶片之熱電轉換效率。熱管為一內含作動流體之封閉腔體,其具有一吸熱端與放熱端,藉由腔體內作動流體持續循環的液汽二相變化,及汽&液流體於吸熱端及放熱端間汽往液返的對流,使腔體表面呈現快速均溫的特性而達到傳熱之目的。相較於傳統單一材質之散熱片,本發明使用之熱管傳熱快速,不需設計構型複雜、體積龐大的多片式散熱單元,亦沒有散熱片不同部位熱分布 情況不同、導致散熱不均的問題。設置於進氣單元內之熱管放熱端佔用空間小,不會對流入該進氣單元之空氣造成過大阻力影響進氣效率。本發明只要增減熱管的數量,或增設其他散熱裝置如散熱片、散熱風扇、液冷式散熱器等等,即可適應不同大小規格之燃燒爐需求,生產難度低、運用彈性高。 Generally, the hot end and the cold end of the thermoelectric chip have a limitation of the operating temperature range, and a certain temperature difference between the hot end and the cold end is required, and the thermoelectric wafer can have the best thermoelectric conversion efficiency, so the heat dissipation mechanism of the thermoelectric wafer is extremely important. The invention uses a heat pipe as a heat transfer medium of the cold end of the thermoelectric chip, and utilizes the advantages of high heat transfer efficiency of the heat pipe to quickly extract excess heat of the cold end of the thermoelectric wafer, so that the temperature difference between the hot end and the cold end of the thermoelectric chip is maintained on the wafer. Improve and maintain the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of thermoelectric wafers within the optimal operating temperature range. The heat pipe is a closed cavity containing an actuating fluid, which has a heat absorbing end and a heat releasing end, and the liquid and vapor two-phase change of the circulating fluid in the cavity is continued, and the steam & liquid fluid flows between the heat absorbing end and the heat releasing end. The convection of the liquid return causes the surface of the cavity to exhibit a rapid average temperature characteristic and achieve the purpose of heat transfer. Compared with the conventional single material heat sink, the heat pipe used in the invention has fast heat transfer, and does not need to design a multi-chip heat dissipation unit with complicated configuration and bulk, and has no heat distribution in different parts of the heat sink. The situation is different, resulting in uneven heat dissipation. The heat pipe of the heat pipe disposed in the air intake unit takes up a small space, and does not cause excessive resistance to the air flowing into the air intake unit to affect the air intake efficiency. The invention can adapt to the demand of different sizes of burners as long as the number of heat pipes is increased or decreased, or other heat dissipating devices such as heat sinks, cooling fans, liquid-cooled radiators, etc. are added, and the production difficulty is low and the application flexibility is high.
本發明同時具有避免熱電晶片溫度過高燒毀之保護機制,現有具熱發電功能之燃燒爐產品,其熱電晶片多直接固鎖於爐體上,或以固定式導熱棒、導熱片等元件將爐體熱量持續不斷地傳至熱電晶片,此種配置方式雖有傳熱快速之優點,然而熱電晶片有其最高操作溫度限制,通常不超過200~300℃,即使持續對熱電晶片加溫到超過晶片預設工作溫度範圍,不僅無法提高熱電轉換效率,甚至會使熱電晶片燒毀或失效。為解決現有技術問題,本發明係具有一導熱單元,該導熱單元係可依該熱電晶片之溫度高低,改變由該爐體傳至該熱電晶片之熱通量大小,防止該熱電晶片因溫度過高而燒毀失效,並維持該熱電晶片處於熱電轉換效率最佳化之工作溫度範圍。該導熱單元係可為兩種金屬以上結合而成之熱偶元件,或其他可改變熱通量之裝置;該導熱單元係可線性改變傳至該熱電晶片之熱通量、或階段式改變傳至該熱電晶片之熱通量,或在一特定溫度下直接斷開、不再傳熱至該熱電晶片,以達到保護該熱電晶片與維持最佳熱電轉換效率之效果。 The invention also has a protection mechanism for avoiding excessive temperature burning of the thermoelectric chip. In the existing combustion furnace product with thermal power generation function, the thermoelectric wafer is directly locked on the furnace body, or the furnace is fixed by a fixed heat conduction rod, a heat conducting sheet and the like. The body heat is continuously transferred to the thermoelectric chip. Although this configuration has the advantage of rapid heat transfer, the thermoelectric wafer has its maximum operating temperature limit, usually not exceeding 200~300 °C, even if the thermoelectric wafer is continuously heated to exceed the wafer. The preset operating temperature range not only fails to improve the thermoelectric conversion efficiency, but even burns or fails the thermoelectric chip. In order to solve the problems of the prior art, the present invention has a heat conducting unit, which can change the heat flux transmitted from the furnace body to the thermoelectric chip according to the temperature of the thermoelectric chip, and prevent the thermoelectric wafer from being overheated. High and burn-out failure, and maintain the thermoelectric wafer in an operating temperature range where thermoelectric conversion efficiency is optimized. The heat conducting unit can be a thermocouple element formed by combining two kinds of metals, or other device capable of changing heat flux; the heat conducting unit can linearly change the heat flux transmitted to the thermoelectric chip, or the phase change transmission The heat flux to the thermoelectric wafer, or directly at a particular temperature, is no longer transferred to the thermoelectric wafer to achieve the effect of protecting the thermoelectric wafer and maintaining optimum thermoelectric conversion efficiency.
