Energy conversion power generation method utilizing chemical reaction by processed good conductor

Abstract

To solve a problem in which a power source such as a conventional power generator or a battery cannot generate electric energy permanently without "supply of energy or an active substance from the outside of a device" or "replacement due to exhaustion of the active substance in the device".SOLUTION: A metal such as copper or aluminum, or a carbon-based good conductor such as a carbon allotrope that has a material property of mutual exchange action of electric energy and thermal energy is processed into powder or solution and mixed in an appropriate amount and ratio. When sealed in a power generation device and temporarily energized from an external power source or heated from an external heat source, the good conductor enters a state in which power generation and heat generation occur at the same time in the device. A problem is solved by a power generation method using a chemical reaction (energy mutual conversion action) of the good conductor.SELECTED DRAWING: None

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an application technology that utilizes the material properties (pyroelectric effect, pyroelectric effect) of good conductors. [Background technology]

[0002] Second Law of Thermodynamics Application Technology Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] Conventional power generating devices or power sources such as batteries had the problem that they could not generate electrical energy continuously unless they were accompanied by "the supply of energy or active substances from outside the device" or "the replacement of active substances inside the device due to consumption." [Means for solving the problem]

[0004] To address this issue, we developed a material that has the property of converting electrical energy into thermal energy. Metals such as copper or aluminum, or carbon-based conductors such as carbon allotropes, are processed into powder or liquid form and mixed in appropriate amounts and ratios to ensure that the constituent substances are balanced. (As long as the chemical composition of the target substances is the same, there is no restriction on the state of solid or liquid.) (As long as the substances are good conductors, there is no restriction on the type of material used.) These conductors are enclosed in a power generation device and temporarily supplied with electrical energy (energized) from an external power source, or thermal energy (heated) from an external heat source. The good conductor then enters a state in which heat generation and electricity generation occur simultaneously within the device (a state in which mutual conversion between electrical energy and thermal energy occurs). This method of generating electricity by utilizing the chemical reaction (energy interconversion action) of good conductors solves the problems that existed with conventional power sources such as power generation devices or batteries. Furthermore, by using this method, it can be used not only as a power generation device (power source) but also as a heating device (heat source).

Claims

1. There are substances called good conductors. (Metals such as copper and aluminum, and carbon-based good conductors such as carbon allotropes.) This substance has the physical properties of generating heat when a voltage is applied (current is passed through it), and generating an electromotive force when heated. This means that good conductors have the ability to convert electrical energy into thermal energy and vice versa. This good conductor is processed into a powder or liquid form and mixed in the appropriate amounts and ratios so that the constituent substances are balanced. (There are no restrictions on the type of substance used as long as it is a good conductor) (There are no restrictions on the state of the substance, such as solid or liquid, as long as the chemical composition of the target substance is the same) This good conductor is enclosed in a power generating device, and electrical energy is temporarily supplied from an external power source (energized), or thermal energy is temporarily supplied from an external heat source (heated). Then, the good conductor enters a state in which heat generation and electricity generation occur simultaneously within the device (a state in which mutual conversion between electrical energy and thermal energy occurs). This method of generating electricity utilizes the chemical reaction (energy interconversion) of good conductors. When this good conductor having a power generating function is used as a power source for an electrical appliance, there are no limitations on its state (solid, liquid, etc.), nor on the shape or material of the outer frame of the power generating device (battery, etc.) in which the good conductor is enclosed. Furthermore, the good conductor does not need to be enclosed within the power generating device. This also includes cases where a soluble conductor is directly applied to the inside of an electrical appliance like paint and then connected to electrical wires, circuits, etc.

2. A power generating device, a power source, using the method according to claim 1.

3. A heating device or heat source using the method according to claim 1. (Cooking equipment, heating equipment, water heater, etc.)

4. An apparatus or facility using the apparatus according to claim 2 or 3.

5. A service or business using the device or facility according to claim 4.
