NSWC Sensor Generator
TL;DRAbstract
This report presents the results of a preliminary program to develop a low power generator to power remotely located sensors. The generator is to use small changes (about 5 deg C) in the ambient conditions to provide up to 1000 microwatts of power at 3.5 Volts. As an example, the generator would be attached to a structure, such as the hull of a ship, and utilized the difference in temperature between the ambient temperature within the compartment and the hull structure. Older structures or machines that produce heat within a ship's compartment can also be considered as heat sources, rather than a heat sink.
