Description

热电转换模块、 新型内燃机、 新型电机及发电方法 技术领域  Thermoelectric conversion module, new internal combustion engine, new type of motor and power generation method
[0001] 本发明涉及温差发电、 内燃机及电机技术领域。  [0001] The present invention relates to the field of thermoelectric power generation, internal combustion engines, and electric machines.
背景技术  Background technique
[0002] 依据 Peltier及 Seebeck效应发展的半导体致冷及温差发电技术, 其核心为热电转 换模块, 也称热电材料、 热电半导体等, 可实现电能与热能间的双向转换, 上 述能量转换为全固态的能量转换方式, 无需化学反应或流体介质, 无运动部件 、 无噪音、 无磨损、 无介质泄露、 无有害物质排放、 体积小重量轻、 移动方便 、 运行稳定、 可靠性高、 寿命长等优点。 但现有热电转换模块的导热接触面 ( 包括热面及冷面) 都以烧结的平面的氧化铝陶瓷为主、 其平面加工要求高、 成 本高。 其内部的导流片均采用直板状金属 (以铜为主) 导流片, 在温度骤变吋 产生的热应力无法得到有效释放, 为兼顾热电转换模块的寿命, 导致模块尺寸 及其内部半导体数量受限, 最终导致热电转换模块的功率受限。 且导流片与半 导体的连接 (如焊接) 产生的材料间扩散将影响半导体材料的性能, 又通过增 加防扩散层的方式来抑制扩散, 增加了模块的热阻, 降低了效率。 授权公告号 为 CN 2779623 Y的中国专利文献公幵了一种基于设具曲弧面的致冷芯片结构, 其对热电转换模块的改进在于导热接触面为曲面以及由可塑性强的金属基板代 替了传统的氧化铝陶瓷基板, 扩大了热电模块的应用范围, 但该专利文献未提 及对导流片有任何改进, 仍然存在直板状金属导流片的热应力问题导致的模块 寿命、 尺寸与功率受限的问题, 以及材料间的扩散问题及热阻和效率问题, 且 其增加的附着在基板整个表面的绝缘层也增加了模块的热阻。  [0002] The semiconductor refrigeration and thermoelectric power generation technology developed according to the Peltier and Seebeck effects, the core of which is a thermoelectric conversion module, also called a thermoelectric material, a thermoelectric semiconductor, etc., can realize bidirectional conversion between electric energy and thermal energy, and the above energy is converted into an all solid state. Energy conversion, no chemical reaction or fluid medium, no moving parts, no noise, no wear, no media leakage, no harmful emissions, small size, light weight, easy to move, stable operation, high reliability, long life, etc. . However, the thermal contact surfaces (including hot and cold surfaces) of the existing thermoelectric conversion modules are mainly sintered flat alumina ceramics, which have high planar processing requirements and high cost. The inner baffles are made of straight-plate metal (mainly copper) baffles, and the thermal stress generated during sudden temperature changes cannot be effectively released, which takes into account the life of the thermoelectric conversion module, resulting in module size and its internal semiconductor. The limited number ultimately results in limited power for the thermoelectric conversion module. Moreover, the diffusion between the materials of the baffle and the semiconductor (such as soldering) will affect the performance of the semiconductor material, and the diffusion prevention layer is used to suppress the diffusion, which increases the thermal resistance of the module and reduces the efficiency. The Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 2779623 Y discloses a cooling chip structure based on a curved surface, and the improvement of the thermoelectric conversion module is that the thermal contact surface is curved and replaced by a plastically strong metal substrate. The traditional alumina ceramic substrate expands the application range of the thermoelectric module, but the patent document does not mention any improvement to the baffle, and there are still module life, size and power caused by the thermal stress problem of the straight plate-shaped metal baffle. Restricted problems, as well as diffusion problems between materials and thermal resistance and efficiency issues, and their increased insulation attached to the entire surface of the substrate also increases the thermal resistance of the module.
[0003] 现有内燃机的效率较低, 燃料燃烧后生成高温高压气体, 高温高压气体的能量 大致可分为高压气体和热能二部分, 内燃机仅利用了其中的高压气体的部分能 量驱动活塞对外做功即输出机械能, 而热能没有利用; 没有利用的热能又分为 废热和有害热能二部分, 其中废热为发动机排出的高温高压尾气, 有害热能指 燃料燃烧后将内燃机缸体温度升高的热能, 而过高的内燃机缸体温度会妨害内 燃机正常运行, 从而而需要冷却***对内燃机缸体进行冷却, 进而需要消耗能 量或资源来驱动冷却***运行, 而冷却***消耗的能量绝大部分直接或间接来 自内燃机的机械能输出, 从而降低了内燃机的有效机械能输出, 降低了内燃机 的效率。 为满足有效机械能的输出, 只能靠增加内燃机排气量的方式来增加内 燃机的有效输出的机械能, 而大排量的内燃机必然带来更高的排放污染。 [0003] The efficiency of the existing internal combustion engine is low, and the high-temperature and high-pressure gas is generated after the fuel is burned. The energy of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas can be roughly divided into two parts: high-pressure gas and heat energy. The internal combustion engine only uses part of the energy of the high-pressure gas to drive the piston to perform external work. That is, the mechanical energy is output, and the thermal energy is not utilized; the heat energy that is not utilized is divided into two parts: waste heat and harmful heat energy, wherein the waste heat is the high temperature and high pressure exhaust gas discharged from the engine, and the harmful heat energy refers to the heat energy that raises the temperature of the internal combustion engine cylinder after the fuel burns, and Excessive internal combustion engine cylinder temperature will hinder The gas turbine operates normally, and thus the cooling system is required to cool the cylinder of the internal combustion engine, thereby consuming energy or resources to drive the operation of the cooling system, and most of the energy consumed by the cooling system is directly or indirectly derived from the mechanical energy output of the internal combustion engine, thereby reducing the The effective mechanical energy output of the internal combustion engine reduces the efficiency of the internal combustion engine. In order to satisfy the output of effective mechanical energy, the mechanical energy of the effective output of the internal combustion engine can be increased only by increasing the displacement of the internal combustion engine, and the large displacement internal combustion engine necessarily brings higher emission pollution.

Like the conventional internal combustion engine, only the high temperature and high pressure gas generated by the combustion of the fuel in the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine is used to work on the piston, and there is no mention. The homogenization of the high-pressure gas generated after the combustion of the fuel brings about an increase in the temperature of the cylinder of the internal combustion engine and countermeasures, and naturally, the thermal energy of the high-temperature cylinder is not utilized.
[0005] 申请公布号为 CN 102425499 A的中国专利文献公幵了一种止点可控的自由活塞 内燃直线发电机, 与传统内燃机一样, 仅利用了燃油燃烧后产生的高压气体推 动活塞做功进而进行发电, 没有提及燃油燃烧后产生的高压气体的同吋带来内 燃机缸体的温度升高及应对措施, 自然也没有对高温缸体的热能进行利用。  [0005] The Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 102425499 A discloses a free-piston internal combustion linear generator with a controllable stop point. Like the conventional internal combustion engine, only the high-pressure gas generated after the combustion of the fuel is used to push the piston to work. In the case of power generation, there is no mention of the increase in the temperature of the cylinder of the internal combustion engine and the countermeasures for the high-pressure gas generated after the combustion of the fuel, and naturally, the heat energy of the high-temperature cylinder is not utilized.
[0006] 现有的电机, 包括将电能转成机械能的电动机及将机械能转成电能的发电机, 在进行能量转换吋, 会有一部分损耗变成热量, 此为有害热能, 必须进行冷却 以保证电机正常运转, 低功率的电机通过外壳自然冷却即可达到冷却目的; 大 功率的电机, 发热量大, 必须依靠强制冷却***进行散热, 强制冷却***的运 行又耗费了额外的能量, 增加能源消耗和温室气体排放 (如铁路的电力牵引机 车、 电动汽车的高功率驱动电机等) 。  [0006] Existing electric machines, including electric motors that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and generators that convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, have some loss into heat after energy conversion, which is harmful heat energy and must be cooled to ensure The motor runs normally. The low-power motor can be cooled by the natural cooling of the casing. The high-power motor has a large heat and must rely on the forced cooling system to dissipate heat. The forced cooling system consumes extra energy and increases energy consumption. And greenhouse gas emissions (such as railway electric traction locomotives, high-power drive motors for electric vehicles, etc.).
[0007] 现有的各种能量转换设备中, 受技术所限, 转换效率达不到 100%, 其中浪费 的能量绝大部分以热能的形式释放, 有的热能以废弃热能的形式排放掉, 另一 部分热能积蓄在设备内部会导致设备内部温度升高, 进而影响设备的正常运行 , 故此类设备均配备了冷却***用于散热, 使设备在适宜的温度环境下运行。 其中设备内需要散热的热能称为有害热能, 有害热能非但没有被利用或利用效 率很低, 还要耗费更多的能量和资源来驱动冷却***的运行, 在降低能量转换 效率的同吋, 进一步造成能量及资源的浪费。 内燃机及电机属于典型的能量转 换设备, 应用普遍, 数量庞大, 由此造成的能量浪费也非常可观。  [0007] Among various energy conversion devices in the prior art, the conversion efficiency is less than 100%, and most of the wasted energy is released in the form of heat energy, and some heat energy is discharged in the form of waste heat energy. Another part of the heat stored in the equipment will cause the internal temperature of the equipment to rise, which will affect the normal operation of the equipment. Therefore, such equipment is equipped with a cooling system for heat dissipation, so that the equipment can operate under suitable temperature conditions. The heat energy that needs to be dissipated in the equipment is called harmful heat energy. The harmful heat energy is not used or the utilization efficiency is very low, and more energy and resources are needed to drive the operation of the cooling system, while reducing the efficiency of energy conversion, further Causes waste of energy and resources. Internal combustion engines and electric motors are typical energy conversion equipments. They are widely used and have a large amount of energy. The resulting energy waste is also very impressive.
技术问题 [0008] 现有热电转换模块的导流片的热应力导致的模块尺寸、 功率受限, 降低转换效 率。 technical problem [0008] The thermal stress of the baffles of the existing thermoelectric conversion module limits the module size and power, and reduces the conversion efficiency.
[0009] 包括内燃机及电机在内的各种能量转换设备, 产生的有害热能非但没有被利用 , 还要消耗额外的能量和资源来驱动冷却***运行, 增加能源消耗和温室气体 排放。  [0009] Various energy conversion devices, including internal combustion engines and electric machines, generate harmful heat energy that is not utilized and consumes additional energy and resources to drive cooling system operation, increasing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

[0103] 与现有技术不同的是, 冷却*** 607的集热面与设备热源表面 608之间的温差导 致温差发电装置 614工作, 吸收热能, 输出电能 615供利用, 根据能量守恒原理 , 设备热源表面 608的热能不变的情况下, 温差发电装置消耗了一部分热能转成 了电能 615, 所以温差发电装置的冷面的温度比设备热源表面 608的温度低, 也 就是冷却***集热面的温度比原来的设备热源表面 508的温度低, 所以可用更低 散热功率的冷却*** 607代替原来的冷却*** 507 ;  [0103] Unlike the prior art, the temperature difference between the heat collecting surface of the cooling system 607 and the heat source surface 608 of the device causes the thermoelectric power generating device 614 to operate, absorb heat energy, and output electrical energy 615 for utilization. According to the principle of energy conservation, the device heat source When the thermal energy of the surface 608 is constant, the thermoelectric power generation device consumes a part of the thermal energy and is converted into the electric energy 615. Therefore, the temperature of the cold surface of the thermoelectric power generation device is lower than the temperature of the heat source surface 608 of the device, that is, the temperature of the heat collecting surface of the cooling system. The temperature of the original device heat source surface 508 is lower than that of the original device, so the cooling system 607 with lower heat dissipation power can be used instead of the original cooling system 507;
[0104] 冷却***热能 609也随之降低, 比原来的冷却***热能 509减少的部分为 616, 从而导致最终的废弃热能 613比原来的废弃热能 513降低;  [0104] The cooling system thermal energy 609 is also reduced, and the portion of the cooling system 509 that is reduced by the original cooling system is 616, resulting in a lower final waste heat 613 than the original waste heat 513;
[0105] 低散热功率的冷却*** 607的重量体积和成本比原来的冷却*** 507都有所减少 [0106] 低散热功率的冷却*** 607只需更低的冷却***驱动能量 605即可驱动, 相比较 原来的冷却***驱动能量 505, 节省的冷却***驱动能量 617, 节省的冷却*** 驱动能量 617转为增加的设备输出能量 618。 [0105] The cooling capacity of the cooling system 607 with low heat dissipation power is reduced compared to the original cooling system 507. [0106] The cooling system 607 with low heat dissipation power can be driven only by the lower cooling system driving energy 605, compared with the original cooling system driving energy 505, the saved cooling system driving energy 617, and the saved cooling system driving energy 617 rpm. Energy 618 is output for the added device.
