AUTONOMOUS DEVICE FOR DIRECT CONVERSION OF LOW-POTENTIAL THERMAL ENERGY OF VARIOUS NATURAL ENVIRONMENTS INTO ELECTRICAL ENERGY Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC H01L35/30 

FIELD: power industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of energy, in particular to devices of autonomous power supply based on the heat of various natural environments for direct transformation (conversion) of the thermal energy of these environments into electrical energy. Essence: the device contains a thermosiphon tube (1) or a heat tube (1), which is filled with a refrigerant with a given boiling point. At one end of the tube (1), a heater (2) is fixed in the form of a radiator covering this end of the tube. At the other end of the tube (1), at least one Peltier element (4) is fixed, in which the “hot junction” is directly adjacent to this end of the tube, and the “cold junction” is adjacent to the refrigerator (5) in the form of a radiator. The heater (2) is in ice water with a temperature of T₁, and the refrigerator (5) is in an atmosphere with a temperature of T₂. The thermosiphon is used only if T₁ > T₂, and the heat pipe - at any ratio of differences T₁ and T₂.

EFFECT: implementation of the assignment.
