D APPENDIX D: TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS FOR ENERGY RECOVERY C. Thermo Photo Voltaic (TPV) Generator The TPV generator is composed of three primary sections: a thermal radiator, a thermal radiation filter, and a semiconductor diode. In many instances, the thermal radiation filter is incorporated into a semiconductor diode, called a TPV cell. Photovoltaic (PV) cells face an emitter element and convert radiation from the emitter element into electricity. Spectral filters are intended to pass only radiation at wavelengths that can be converted to electricity by PV cells and reflect the remainder back to the central emitter where it is reabsorbed (Figure D.5). Figure D.5: Schematic of symmetrical TPV conversion system. On the left, a heat pipe radiator is located on the outside of the stack with a selective emitter inside powering TPV cells cooled by a fluid channel. On the right, a flat heat pipe with an integrated emitter surface. Photovoltaic cells work most efficiently when they absorb only radiation (photons) with energies slightly above the bandgap energy of the cell. Photons with energies below the bandgap energy of the cell are not absorbed and do not create an electron-hole pair with the useful electrical current a PV cell can deliver to a load proportional to the number of electron-hole pairs. Photons with energies greater than the bandgap energy can be absorbed but create only one electron-hole pair regardless of the excess photon energy. Phonons (lattice vibrations) are emitted as the electron rapidly relaxes back to the conduction band edge and the hole relaxes back to the valance band edge in a process referred to thermalization. After thermalization, the electron and hole are separated by only the bandgap energy of the p-n junction and any excess energy has been lost as heat in the semiconductor. This effect alone limits the maximum achievable to approximately 44% for single junction PV cells (Coutts, T.J. et al., 1998). 107PDF Image | Analysis for Recovering Energy from Industrial Waste Heat
