ZitatThe heat-driven electricity generator is an Army-funded project that aims to generate electricity while cooling radar systems. Symko's group, in cooperation with Washington State University and the University of Mississippi, is investigating methods to improve the efficiency of their heat-driven acoustically coupled electricity generators. Ultimately, the idea is to also directly convert solar heat into electricity.
So far the team has demonstrated only laboratory desktop prototypes, but their Army contract calls for a prototype electricity generator that harvests the waste heat from the university's hot-water plant next year, with the aim transferring that technology to cooling a real military radar the year after. The researchers estimate that it will take an additional two years to develop a model that harvests the sun's heat directly.
