The directional moving of water molecules, which can be driven by gradient of functional groups and water evaporation, is vital for the electricity generation. Here, MEG composed of Graphene Oxide (GO-MEG) with gradient channels is constructed by one-step ice-templating technique, achieving a voltage of 0.48 V and a current of ~ 5.64 µA under humid condition. The gradient channels introduce Laplace pressure difference to the absorbed water droplets and electric potential between two side of the GO-MEG, facilitating the charge flow. Output voltage can be easily enhanced by increasing the structural gradient, reducing the channel size, incorporation of chemical gradient, or scaling up the number of GO-MEG units in series. This work not only provides insight for the working mechanism of GO-MEG with structural gradient, which can be applied to other functional materials, but also establishes a convenient and ecofriendly strategy to construct and finely tune the structural gradient in porous materials.展开更多

文摘Moist-electric power generation is an emerging energy technology that collects energy from the environment and converts it into electrical energy through the interaction of moisture with materials.Although most of the moist-electric generators(MEGs)have achieved continuous breakthroughs in open-circuit voltage(V_(OC))and duration at present,it has been proven to be a challenge to maintain a continuous relatively high short-circuit current(ISC).Herein,electrospun nanofiber-based Janus heterogeneous film with both moisture absorption and moisture evaporation characteristics is prepared,and excellent power output performance MEGs have been fabricated by setting perforated electrode at each side respectively.Results have demonstrated the Janus nanofiber moist-electric generator(JFMEG)can generate a V_(OC)of 0.6 V with a continuous power generation time of up to 30 d and a maximum I_(SC)of about 44µA cm^(−2)at 95%relative humidity.In addition,the I_(SC)maintenance time above 10µA cm^(−2)is close to 40 h The integrated device can power commercial equipment and can be used for self-powered breath detection.Additionally,the self-powered field-effect transistor by JFMEG has been fabricated,demonstrating excellent output characteristics.The detailed working mechanism of JFMEG and the influencing factors of power generation performance are systematically analyzed,which can provide reference for the performance improvement of similar moist-electric devices.

文摘Moisture can be utilized as a tremendous source of electricity by emerging moisture-electric generator (MEG). The directional moving of water molecules, which can be driven by gradient of functional groups and water evaporation, is vital for the electricity generation. Here, MEG composed of Graphene Oxide (GO-MEG) with gradient channels is constructed by one-step ice-templating technique, achieving a voltage of 0.48 V and a current of ~ 5.64 µA under humid condition. The gradient channels introduce Laplace pressure difference to the absorbed water droplets and electric potential between two side of the GO-MEG, facilitating the charge flow. Output voltage can be easily enhanced by increasing the structural gradient, reducing the channel size, incorporation of chemical gradient, or scaling up the number of GO-MEG units in series. This work not only provides insight for the working mechanism of GO-MEG with structural gradient, which can be applied to other functional materials, but also establishes a convenient and ecofriendly strategy to construct and finely tune the structural gradient in porous materials.
文摘The ocean,as one of Earth’s largest natural resources,covers over 70% of the planet’s surface and holds vast water energy potential.Building on this context,this study designs a hybrid generator(WWR-TENG)that integrates a triboelectric nanogenerator(TENG)and an electromagnetic generator(EMG).TENG is a new technology that can capture mechanical energy from the environment and convert it into electrical energy,and is particularly suitable for common natural or man-made power sources such as human movement,wind power,and water flow.EMG is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through the principle of electromagnetic induction and can usually provide stable power output.The composite design leverages the complementary advantages of both technologies to efficiently capture and convert marine wave energy.By combining the TENG’s high energy conversion efficiency,lowcost,lightweight structure,and simple designwith the EMG’s capabilities,the systemprovides a sustainable solution for marine energy development.Experimental results demonstrate that at a rotational speed of 3.0 r/s,the TENG component of the WWR-TENG achieves an open-circuit voltage of approximately 280 V and a shortcircuit current of 20μA.At the same time,the EMG unit exhibits an open-circuit voltage of 14 V and a short-circuit current of 14 mA.Furthermore,when integrated with a power management circuit,the WWR-TENG charges a 680μF capacitor to 3 V within 10 s at a rotational speed of 3.0 r/s.A simulated wave environment platform was established,enabling the WWR-TENG to maintain the thermo-hygrometer in normal operation under simulated wave conditions.These findings validate the hybrid system’s effectiveness in harnessing and storingwave energy,highlighting its potential for practical marine energy applications.

文摘With the rapid development of large-scale regional interconnected power grids,the risk of cascading failures under extreme condi-tions,such as natural disasters and military strikes,has increased significantly.To enhance the response capability of power systems to extreme events,this study focuses on a method for generator coherency detection.To overcome the shortcomings of the traditional slow coherency method,this paper introduces a novel coherent group identification algorithm based on the theory of nonlinear dynam-ical systems.By analyzing the changing trend of the Euclidean norm of the state variable derivatives in the reduced system,the algorithm can accurately identify the magnitude of the disturbances.Based on the slow coherency methods,the algorithm can correctly recognize coherent generator groups by analyzing system characteristics under varying disturbance magnitudes.This improvement enhances the applicability and accuracy of the coherency detection algorithm under extreme conditions,providing support for emergency control and protection in the power system.Simulations and comparison analyses on IEEE 39-bus system are conducted to validate the accuracy and superiority of the proposed coherent generator group identification method under extreme conditions.
文摘With the development of science and technology,the social demand for energy is also increasing.However,the traditional method of energy supply primarily relies on non-renewable resources for energy conversion.While this conventional approach can expedite the energy conversion process,it also results in irreversible ecological hazards.To solve the above problems,the use of renewable clean energy is proposed.In this paper,a droplet generator is proposed to integrate the rotating structure with the body effect power generation for the tiny energy of raindrops.This droplet generator can increase the speed of droplets leaving the dielectric layer and reduce the effect of continuously falling droplets on the droplet-based electricity generator(DEG).It is demonstrated that the instantaneous power of the generator can reach 0.9 mW,which can be a good solution to the power supply needs of some small power supply equipment,and thereafter is beneficial to the self-powering of the equipment in rainy days.
