5 What is this? Ice in the desert mid-summer 5000 years ago. Alien Intelligence or clever Persians?
6 Perspective: Note man sitting
7 Desert summertime ice 5000 years ago 1. Store winter ice: 2 meter thick walls 2. Evaporative cooling intricate wind/vent system 3. Radiative cooling at night; open canal system 4. Radiation to deep space; opening in roof Other observations: Danger: We lose heat to Deep Space; exposure deaths at night. Frost on windshield in a.m. after 38 o F ambient temps. Why not use Deep Space phenomenon for clean, renewable energy?

12 The Heat Engine for the NSC?
13 THERMOELECTRIC GENERATOR Standard Operation/Installation of Thermoelectric Generator Rejected heat CJP TEG ELEMENTS Heat In T drives thermal energy Through P-N Junction to Produce electrical energy V = S T where : S = Seebeck Coefficient
14 Device Utility Nighttime Solar Cell 1. Renewable Non-polluting Energy Source 2. Remote Electric Power, 24 hours/day 3. Produces Electrical Energy Day or Night 4. For Large Land Arrays Land More Productive Day and Night 5. Device Can Augment PV (Solar) Panels 6. Very Good for Arid Environments 7. Technology Available Today 8. Solid State Reliability

Hot Junction Plate Thermal Source LOAD k gap Cold Jcn. T h T ambient T c, A CJP Vacuum Cell I Description of Operation 1. TEG Module and Cold Junction Plate (CJP) mounted inside vacuum cell. 2. Vacuum cell sealed by spectral window with high transmissivity in mid-ir range (8 µm to 13 µm band). 3. CJP surface facing window has high emissivity. 4. Vacuum cell mounted with spectral window facing deep space. 5. Thermal energy from surroundings (or low-grade waste thermal heat) enters cell only via Hot Junction Plate. 6. Vacuum isolates thermal energy by conduction heat transfer through TEG elements only and into CJP. 7. High emissivity CJP surface transmits IR thermal energy through spectral window and atmosphere into deep space which is the thermal sink at 3.5 K. 8. Atmosphere is transparent to about 15% - 38% of the IR energy at the expected temperature of operation. 9. Temperature difference across TEGs can be up to 50K, depending on module geometry and thermal conditions. 10. Daytime operation of the cell can use the sun as thermal source to heat CJP; the ambient becomes thermal sink thus reversing the current flow through the Load. 11. The nominal size of a single cell is 6cm x 6cm x 3cm. 12. Cells can be assembled into large arrays. Schematic of Cell Configuration

Convection heat transfer at external window surface 6. Constant ambient temperature at hot junction 7. Deep space at constant 3.5 K 8. CJP is diffuse, gray-ish surface 9. Active atmospheric bandwidths as required 10. CJP view factor with deep space is unity Previous Research 1. Design/select TEG elements: Number of junctions based on: a. cross-sectional area; b. length. Design constraint: 2 x 2 ZnSe window 2. Develop atmospheric model based on absorption/emission of IR energy gases in 8µm to 13µm spectrum 3. Study various effects/parameters on system: CJP area vs TEG cold plate area; daytime solar heating; low-grade thermal source effect, changing CJP area/design.

31 Next Generation NSC Use Micro-TEGs
32 3.388mm 3.364mm Simple Micro Generators
33 Current Micro-TEG Thermal Props. Poor Match for NSC. Various cell configurations and Micro- TEG designs will be studied to improve Operation; Ultimate goal is to complement PV cell arrays by producing clean, silent electric power day and night.
34 Future Research 1. Select inexpensive materials for cell construction; build and prove efficacy; 2. Reconfigure Micro-TEG design and assembly to better match NSC requirements; 3. Build and test evacuated or controlled cell internal environment to improve operation, reduce cost, and simplify manufacturing needs; 4. Select/test materials to demonstrate ruggedness and portability of NSC; 5. Research other unique applications for remote usage and silent electric power applications.
35 Summary 1. The NSC uses spectral gap in atmosphere to produce clean, renewable, limitless electric power; 2. Great for remote outposts where a silent, zero-footprint is required; 3. Can be made very portable for easy set-up, breakdown and mobility; 4. Produces electrical energy day and night; 5. Large arrays more effective with nighttime usage; 6. Previous research shows with Low-Grade Thermal Source, 10K temp. increase improves power output 22%; 7. Improved TEG Module output will allow Nighttime Cell to compete with solar photovoltaics; 8. Previous research shows operation in arid locales will be exceptional; 9. Micro-TEG improvements/redesign will reduce overall cell manufacturing costs; 10. One might say almost 40% of the windows are always open in the Greenhouse, how will we keep the plants from freezing? Produce electricity instead.
