摘要
This study is concerned with energy and exergy analyses of a solar energy harvesting system based on the pyroelectric effect. The [Bi-0.5(Na0.94K0.05Li0.016)(0.5)](0.95)Ba0.05TiO3 (BNKLBT) ceramic was studied in present investigation using finite-element analysis, and the power output was optimized for different load resistance and load capacitance values. The maximum power output obtained was 2.2 mu W across a load resistance of 50 M Omega and a 4.7 mu F load capacitor. Further exergy analysis was performed for the pyroelectric energy harvesting system. The maximum values for the electrical and thermal exergies obtained were 2.3 mu W and 37 mu W, respectively. Furthermore, the maximum obtained electrical and thermal exergy efficiencies were 0.00013% and 11.16%, respectively.
