AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing measures for lightning protection and temperature regulation in aquaculture environments are inadequate, particularly in preventing temperature rises and lightning accidents without relying on power consumption, and there is a need for effective energy conversion and installation strategies that account for varying weather conditions.

Method used

The implementation of a population vascular bundle system comprising absorbent paper, aluminum foil with holes for water absorption and evaporation, wire mesh for reinforcement, and a lightning receiving plate, which can be installed strategically to manage temperature and lightning risk, with considerations for assembly and maintenance.

Benefits of technology

The system effectively lowers water and air temperatures, reduces lightning-related deaths, and enhances installation flexibility and safety, while allowing for efficient assembly and maintenance, particularly in aquaculture settings.

Abstract

To artificially suppress phenomena such as temperature increases and abnormal rainfall associated with extreme weather events. [Solution] In order to mitigate the rise in temperature, which is the biggest cause of extreme weather, by evaporating water, absorbent paper is sandwiched between perforated aluminum foil with a pitch of about 1.5 mm to promote water absorption and evaporation, and the outside is sandwiched with wire mesh with a pitch similar to insect netting to create an artificial vascular bundle state.

Technical Field

[0001] Environmental-related Technical Background

[0002] Measures against global warming and lightning accidents, etc.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0003] Could it be possible to suppress the rise in temperature at least a little without using power like plants? Also, could it be possible to challenge energy conversion without just ending with accident avoidance measures for lightning accidents?

Effects of the Invention

[0004] Since the water temperature is generally considered to be low in deep places regardless of whether it is fresh water or seawater, it is possible to lower the water temperature and the air temperature by evaporating the water with a low temperature. ● If the population vascular bundle is installed in aquaculture farms such as pearl oyster and nori farms, a decrease in deaths due to the rise in seawater temperature can be expected. ● Depending on the installation method of the population vascular bundle, if a rapid change occurs, the number of installations can be increased or decreased. ● The holes made in the aluminum foil may be slightly fewer in the middle part. ● The lightning rod attracts lightning at a point, but the lightning receiving plate waits in a surface or linear state, so it can take more chances. ● Since there is still a possibility of lightning even on cloudy days, it is desirable to install the lightning receiving plate on sunny days. ● The installation location of the lightning receiving plate is preferably a place where several installation patterns can be ensured and safety can be guaranteed. ● When assembling the population vascular bundle and the lightning receiving plate, it is thought that it is better not to rattle by making gas vent holes at several places in the paper and the aluminum foil and wetting them with spraying or the like. ● When using the population vascular bundle in the sea, barnacles etc. need to be cleaned sometimes.

Brief Description of the Drawings

[0005] [Figure 1] Figure 1 is an enlarged partial plan view. [Figure 2] Figure 2 shows enlarged sections of the side and elevation views. [Explanation of symbols] 1. Absorbent paper; two sheets are best when using it as a lightning striker. 2. Aluminum foil with holes for water absorption and evaporation. 3. Wire mesh with a mesh spacing of approximately 1 to 5. 4. A wire mesh that strengthens the toughness of 3 wire mesh and reduces the number of fastening points by 6. A wire mesh with a thicker wire diameter when the toughness of the 5 / 4 wire mesh is insufficient. 6. Indicate the tightening holes and bolts / nuts. For bolts and nuts (number 6), if torque values ​​are not a concern, using tapered bolts and nuts of the same type used in building formwork makes assembly and disassembly easier when mass production begins.

Claims

1. ● The part corresponding to the vascular bundles of a plant is sandwiched between absorbent paper (Figure 1) and perforated aluminum foil (Figure 2) with holes spaced about 1.5 mm apart to promote evaporation. This is then sandwiched on the outside with wire mesh spaced about the same as insect netting, and then sandwiched with Figure 3. If the toughness can be maintained with the above, the remaining reinforcements (Figures 4, 5, and 6) are not necessary. The tightening holes should be oval or rectangular to allow for expansion and contraction. The tightening position should preferably be in the center of the holes. By slightly varying the tightening torque, it is possible to create differences in the rate at which water is drawn up, like the legs of a sea worm, which will result in differences in evaporation and allow for efficient cooling with a small surface area.

2. ● Wire mesh is used to avoid the microplastic problem.

3. ● After applying charcoal powder to the entire surface of the paper according to claim 1, the state of claim 1 is created. ● Instead of using a lightning rod, could it be used as a lightning strike experiment device by designing it to receive lightning strikes using lines or places?
