STEG bricks, lights, self-sustaining buildings and power station units

Abstract

A solar thermoelectric power station plant consisting of different units including solar thermoelectric bricks, roof tiles and a battery and or capacitor storage brick system unit. Temperature differences existing between different metal materials inside and outside the brick or building, like in extreme hot and cold conditions, like in boiling or hot temperatures like deserts or in the freezing cold snows, create charge. Using the thermoelectric series element effect the bricks are connected to the battery or capacitor wall and electricity is generated with the Seebeck coefficient, or condensers and furnaces are made using the Peltier effect. Solar thermoelectric bricks are also used in furnaces and hot water filters, solar up and downdraft towers and in between hot and cold-water geysers, used as condensers, seasonal refrigerators or coolers or boilers and or heaters, ovens as well as solar thermal generator buildings and roof tiles.

[0003] BACKROUND: In the case of off the grid living, thermoelectric bricks or blocks, combined with solar panel technology, are used to generate electricity, where it's cold outside and warm or hot inside or vice versa, based on the sun's energy and temperature differences between the one side and the other side of the bricks called the thermoelectric effect consisting of the See beck effect or co-efficient and the Peltier effect, used for heating and cooling or condensing, controlling with or via buck booster convertors, thus combining thermal electric energy and energy storing facilities and solar energy to self-charge and control any STEG buildings which will control heating and cooling, with climate change problems looming, a solution proposed! Controlling the novel STEG Power station’s LED sensor light displays also with Analog to Digital convertors (ADC’s) as well as acoustic sounds and charge amplifications, unity of novel product development here within.

[0004] DESCRIPTION:

[0005] The invention is a new STEG Power station plant, in this STEG power station, the power station units are made up of various types of Novel bricks necessary for the electrical power station to operate! The STEG Brick’s system is composed of various baked, moulded or 3D printed, composite bricks or blocks, which also come in the embodiments of batteries and supercapacitors. The Solar thermoelectric Bricks or Rooftiles also come in an embodiment that is also used in different nuclear reactor units in the STEG electrical power station plant. They are comprised of a single compartmentalised brick and a system of various bricks made of different PN stacked and layered sections, halved (fig 1) or corrugated into multiples of two differentiating metals (fig 2) called thermocouples, (fig 4) separated by thin insulator layers touching both electrodes in series on either side for added electrical strength and charging capabilities, they are connected in series with multiple corrugated PN junction layers (fig 4) and in all embodiments, Peltier element form stacked compartments, making up the solar thermoelectric bricks interior, where the ingredients of the bricks are for example: mixed, mould injected into the layered and or stacked thermocouple layers with a dielectric insulator in between and then Bricks are baked and or melted in the moulds and dried. Doped bricks, with multiple P type (3) and N type (2) stacked thermocouple layers can be made from for example with Silica (SiO2) Sand and non-toxic Metal Oxide thermoelectric materials like Iron Oxide (FeO3) or Silicide Powders like Silicon Germanium (Si Ge) and doped or mixed for example, with metallic N type materials or powders like Phosphorus (P) (2) and for P type materials, (3) for example, Aluminium (Al) and Boron (B) is used for the multiple PN corrugated junction layers. Connected in series with a solid-state dielectric thin film separators like Boron nano nitride (BNNT), Silicon dioxide and other suitable dielectric plastics. The Bi-polar electrode’s outer and inner layers (lb) would be made with materials like Carbon © (CNT), Graphite or Graphene (Gr), Silicon (SIC) and optionally also conductive or recycled conductive Plastics. Cementing thermoelectric Hybrid composite materials like non-toxic thermoelectric powders, used also to create Thermoelectric material PN junctions, for the thermoelectric effect, with higher electrical conductivity and low thermal conductivity needed. Place the various PN Junctions in lines in parallel, adjacently to, in-between the Bi-polar electrode to make the layers. PN junctions are stacked and layered in a corrugated series style developments show, PN20 thermocouples equals 100% efficiency on a Peltier plate element which is presently only 5% efficient, with afore mentioned example of Boron nano nitride as insulator separators (4) (BNNT) and or Ceramic tile overly over the electrode layers, (la) the mixed materials are injected into moulds, baked, fired or melted, the bricks system, STEG bricks connected to a Battery brick and or Capacitor brick or Water wall manufactured the same way, for the solar thermoelectric reaction to take place. For the outer solar photovoltaic or the Brick’s LED layers, vapour deposit or spray for example composite materials like those used in RED Green Blue (RGB) or (RYB) Red Yellow Blue singular, bicolour or tri-colour RYB LEDs: with variations of for example in RGB - GAS-> GAN-> GAP-> materials used as solar charging or LED sensor outer layers, over thermally conductive outer layer, like a BNNT and or and not ceramic tile, solar LED layers adheres to by vapour deposition, and also the overlay insulator finish (la). STEG bricks are shown here with electrical conductor contact gates (fig 2) like used in transistors in the Bi-polar electrode bricks, batteries and capacitors, necessary to operate the power station unit and seasonally self-charging buildings, for example where circuit direction will change. H generator and electricity power bricks will operate, charging the battery, when a temperature difference between the inside and the outside is too low to generate any electricity like an overcast or cloudy Autum day where you’d have to rely on a STEG Fireplace! The Bi-polar solar thermoelectric bricks are used in buildings and Solar up downdraft towers which can have Solar thermoelectric tents or made with multifunctional Solar thermoelectric LEDs optionally on top of and underneath of the Solar Tent for the Up or Downdraft Tower, connecting the Digital mirror device as DMD LED sensor reflectors and hologram projector screens (fig 13). Used also on STEG windowpanes and as specialised Multi-purpose DMD LED grow lights, used optionally also as Hologram projectors, magic mirrors or Digital entertainment screens (5), the Multipurpose STEG windows form the Specialised Panes in the STEG Solar updraft tower within, making the Solar up or down draft tower’s draft collector or dispenser unit of the Plant or Power Plant. The multipurpose windows also operate as Magic mirrors and are made through IC fabrication methods like photolithography or 3D electronic nano printing or Additive Manufacturing methods (AM)o’ LED special STEG Windowpanes can be also used in Vehicle embodiments as special material Vehicle bodies, with Digital Display LED and Lidar Sensor STEG vehicle body panels as well as wearable accessories with the Battery and or Super Capacitor layers sandwiched in between the Double-sided homo or hetero structure layered STEG LED battery capacitor panels also used in novel MHD embodiments, using both Lenz law and Laurence force . Alternatively, the 3D shaped, double-sided STEG LED panes or textile fabrics, come also on DMDs as LED Lidar pointers used for cross beaming lights, with intrinsic layers (5) making holograms and Lidar, doppler and or LED sensors or colour scanning on some of the various accessories and embodiments. The STEG Bricks can also be used in Boilers, Ovens, Furnaces and importantly for climate change solutions, Liquid Filters, standing adjacently for example, like Venturi scrubbers, where further in an embodiment, wet scrubbers using liquid filter adjacent buildings made using the STEG brick and using an Organic solvent can heat the liquid trapping the toxic gasses and impurities in the Organic solvent while cleaning the Toxic air of the poisonous hot gases and carbons in the air from the Smokestacks and from Furnaces. Reusable Carbons and the like are trapped as well as Toxic gases, which are soluble in organic solvents, an endothermic dissolution reaction occurs related to their solvation. Additionally, the extractor fan at the top is reversed and used as a wind or hot gas vapour fan blade turbine generator, and sprinkling liquids with nozzle holes along the edge of the pipes along the blades to further capture any toxic gases or fumes in droplets used as it spins an extraction fan in embodiments as an additional turbine generator. The electrical power station’s bricks, battery and supercapacitor bricks are all made the same way; however, the two bipolar electrodes are separated by a solid electrolyte in the battery brick and in the Capacitor brick with non-conductive dielectric or insulator layer, like BNNT, thin film membrane separator in between, parallel to the super capacitor bricks or H Power generator bricks electrodes. A Dielectric layer used like in the corrugated thermocouple PN junctions but directly in the middle of the N filled brick, parallel to the electrodes, splitting it in half making the super capacitor (Fig 9) and which is also for making of the H electricity generating power bricks’ (also Fig 9) but with redirected or condensed water or H20 as an electrolyte N and using electrolysis for the H and 02 generator as by-products needed for the electricity generating power brick to work after making contact with the H fuel cell membrane in the middle, in another brick embodiment. In conditions when there is not enough temperature gradient to create a sufficient electrical charge and where Hydrogen is needed like in the H Fuel cell brick or Nuclear Fusion reactor, using basic electrolysis to make hydrogen for the reactor. In the Roof tile embodiments, the format is the same, thermoelectric rows of thermocouples of differentiating metals P and N type, for 100% efficiency, PN 20 < Thermo-couples fitted in series between two electrode plates, water pipes (Fig 7) which drive turbines optionally are embedded for thermal heating in cold weather and cooling in warm weather, conditions and vice versa, which, for additional heat, the power plants gutter, made like a parabolic trough water heater, by running a water pipe along the bottom trough of the gutter. Hot or cold water is directed into a parallel dual thermoelectric geyser which shares a common wall therefore affecting charge on each other, the hot water making the other side cold and vice versa. The rooftile can also be used as floor tiling for internal or interior heating systems or imaginably lining the inside of a Geodesic dome nuclear fusion reactor, liquid pipes are connected and used for charging steam turbines.

[0006] The lightning conductor is made the same as the circular tower with semi-circular shaped solar thermoelectric bricks with an electrode connecting the higher and lower layers in series spiralling upwards to the top used for collecting electrical charge and condensing liquid H20 to feed crops perhaps. (Figi 1) Various shaped bricks for example, rectangular or even triangular for example nuclear thermoelectric brick is used in a spherical dome (Fig 10) like structure with hollow or central solenoid polarised electromagnet which is predominantly Granite for the nuclear fusion reactor to work, the central Solenoid surrounding can also be, made from the semi-circular STEG bricks. Solenoid electromagnet made from the semicircular brick optionally, connecting in series in an upward spiral the N and S poles of the electromagnet, forcing the hot plasma around or through the centre of the column in some embodiments. Through connecting holes or openings at the top and bottom of the central column and around, moving along the inside edges of the dome heating it, following the direction of the electromagnetism, in order to create the nuclear fusion laser magnetic confinement thermoelectric power reaction unit. Further in the nuclear reactor unit’s bricks, alternatively various shaped in other embodiments like triangles are used to make the geodesic dome shaped reactors, once connected, the shapes in series, connecting to each other in rows and then connecting the upper and the lower levels of bricks in series, in turn connecting to a central polarised, for example Granite or hollow Granite (Gr) column, making a polarised solenoid and central coolant. The inner combustion ceramic layer (la) can contain Lithium in the outer layer (BNNT Ceramic) on top of the combustion Bi-polar electrodes side (5) which could convert H2 to H3 in the combustion chambers of the reactor, (Fig 10) Intrinsic layers are added into the Nuclear STEG bricks embodiments to assist in this process, where Au optionally is added to the combustion sides of electrodes as well for additional electron charge spray and therefore additional electrical charge generation.
