The SolarNano Generator has a triboelectric nanogenerator on the reverse side of the panel in order to optimize space and accommodate the climatic conditions on planet Howler.
The SolarNano Generator has a triboelectric nanogenerator on the reverse side of the panel in order to optimize space and accommodate the climatic conditions on planet Howler.
The silicon-based triboelectric nanogenerator can produce energy during winter weather with a simple coat of paint through the buildup of static electricity.
Snow is positively charged, when it lands on a negatively charged panel surface coated with silicon rubber, the snow will pass over electrons, generating static electricity and water wave energy.
Silicone can be 3D printed on top of a plastic electrode, which could capture the static electricity harvested by the silicone. Snow just needs to fall, or come into contact with the silicone to create energy.
The silicone-based electrode has a soft texture and is covered with a dielectric film.
A spring is placed in the center to transform low-frequency water wave motions into high-frequency vibrations, similar to sound energy.
The panel is durable and flexible as it is able to rotate in the direction of maximum snowfall.
The panel is also water-resistant and does not require batteries to work.
Structure of Outer Cover of Panel
Structure of Outer Cover of Panel
As you can see in the figure attached, in the center there is a spring, on the outer edges the outermost layer is silicone rubber, while the middle layers consist of copper, acrylic, and polytetrafluoroethylene, which is a synthetic polymer, similar to Teflon.
