| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we developed a power generation system using a thermoelectric element (Peltier element) utilizing the temperature difference (about 30 ° C) between the ground temperature that allows stable temperature throughout the year due to the adiabatic effect of snow cover and the outside temperature in winter. We investigated the winter natural environment suitable for power generation by winter meteorological observation and snow cover cross section observation, studied lamination of Peltier elements by indoor experiments and examined combinations thereof, and conducted demonstration experiments in the field in winter.
As a result, it showed that this device can generate electric power that can turn on the LED by combining the heat transport system of the heat pipe and the laminated Peltier unit under the natural environment like the inland part of eastern Hokkaido.
