Thermoelektrische Generatoren können zum „Energy harvesting“ für den autarken Betrieb von bspw. Sensoren eingesetzt werden. Eine interessante Alternative zu den herkömmlichen π-Typ Generatoren sind auf Grund der höheren Leistungsdichte und der guten Automatisierbarkeit thermoelektrische Multilayergeneratoren. Calciumcobaltit ist ein vielsprechendes oxidisches Thermoelektrika (p-Typ) mit stark anisotropen Eigenschaften. Die hier vorgestellte Studie zeigt die Entwicklung von texturierten Unileg-Multilayer-Generatoren mittels keramischer Multilayertechnologie.
Calciumcobaltit wird durch Foliengießen und druckunterstützte Sinterung texturiert. Im Vergleich zur konventionellen Sinterung verbessert sich die Festigkeit um den Faktor 10. Die thermoelektrischen Eigenschaften können je nach verwendetem Druckniveau hinsichtlich maximalem Power Factor oder hinsichtlich maximalem Gütefaktor optimiert werden.
Ein Glaskeramikkomposit wird als Isolationsmaterial mit hohem Volumenwiderstand und angepasstem Wärmeausdehnungskoeffizienten entwickelt. Der Unileg-Multilayer-Generator wird in einem Schritt co-gesintert. Die hergestellten Demonstratoren erreichen 80% der simulierten Output-Leistung. Diese Ergebnisse stellen den ersten Machbarkeitsnachweis für die Herstellung von co-gesinterten Multilayer-Generatoren aus texturiertem Calciumcobaltit mit hohem Power Factor und hoher Festigkeit dar.
Thermomagnetic materials are a new type of magnetic energy materials, which enable the conversion of low temperature waste heat to electricity by three routes: Thermomagnetic motors, generators and microsystems. Taking our recent work on thermomagnetic generators as a starting point, in this talk we analyse the material requirements for a more energy and economic efficient conversion. We will describe the influence of magnetisation change and heat capacity on thermodynamic efficiency, as well as the consequences of thermal conductivity on power density. Our analysis will allow selecting the best thermomagnetic materials in Ashby plots and illustrate the substantial different properties compared to magnetocaloric materials.

To date, there are only very few technologies available for the conversion of low temperature waste heat to electricity. More than a century ago, thermomagnetic generators were proposed, which are based on a change of magnetization with temperature, switching a magnetic flux, which according to Faraday’s law induces a voltage. In this talk, we first describe the principle of thermomagnetic generators. Then we focus on the impact of topology of the magnetic circuit within thermomagnetic generators. We demonstrate that the key operational parameters strongly depend on the genus, i.e. the number of holes within the magnetic circuit. A pretzel-like topology of the magnetic circuit with genus =3 improves the performance of thermomagnetic generators by orders of magnitude. We will show that this technique is on its way to becoming competitive with thermoelectrics for energy harvesting near room temperature.

To date, there are very few technologies available for the conversion of low-temperature waste heat into electricity. Thermomagnetic generators are one approach proposed more than a century ago. Such devices are based on a cyclic change of magnetization with temperature. For thermomagnetic materials, we used a commercial magnetocaloric alloy with a transition temperature of 300 K.

To date, there are very few technologies available for the conversion of low-temperature waste heat into electricity. Thermomagnetic generators are one approach proposed more than a century ago. Such devices are based on a cyclic change of magnetization with temperature. This switches a magnetic flux and, according to Faraday’s law, induces a voltage. Here we demonstrate that guiding the magnetic flux with an appropriate topology of the magnetic circuit improves the performance of thermomagnetic generators by orders of magnitude. Through a combination of experiments and simulations, we show that a pretzel-like topology results in a sign reversal of the magnetic flux. This avoids the drawbacks of previous designs, namely, magnetic stray fields, hysteresis and complex geometries of the thermomagnetic material. Our demonstrator, which is based on magnetocaloric plates, illustrates that this solid-state energy conversion technology presents a key step towards becoming competitive with thermoelectrics for energy harvesting near room temperature.
