Abstract

Energy harvesting in natural environment has attracted a great deal of attention to generate stable and continuous electrical energy. In this work, we proposed an advanced pyroelectric energy harvesting system by using form-stable phase change material (PCM) composites. The PCM composite connected pyro-electrode generated electrical polarization due to the change of external environment. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) and 1-tetradecanol (1-TD) composites with different phase transition field induced the temperature difference during light-on/-off process. Poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF) was utilized for pyroelectric energy harvesting. The PVDF based pyro-electrode was applied changing the conditions of solar light irradiation and heat air flow. The PCM composites controlled the temperature fluctuation effectively and generated stable output electrical voltage and current. Numerical simulation was carried out to provided in-depth insight into the underlying physics of the system. We envisage that the developed thermal energy harvesting system can pave a way towards high-throughput and sustainable energy harvesting.
