we need a good representation of our design.the objective is to show the same idea but with better more realistic drawings and animation ( showing all the details like sand particles moving in air and scratching the surface where there will be colors indicating the generation of heat that will travail to the device in the back of the V shape). A commercial type of animation in the desert how the energy is being generated and shifted from the sand particle to an electric current at the back.
we want to present the animation and drownings as a proposal to start designing the machine, our audience will be a mix of technical and non technical people.
here is the technical part of our patent :
' Our device (image 1) is consestanet of a cover of thin rough metal with a mixture of MOFs (4), as the sand particles (2) in the storm collides with the surface and scratch it. During the scratching process heat will be generated, a major part of this heat will be transferred via conduction to the other side of our cover surface(1) and it will reach the hot part of the thermometric device (3). As the high temperature part heats up, electricity will be generated via the thermometric effect. This is the first half of the cycle the second will be related to the MOFs(4), some of the heat that is generated due to the particles (2) scratching the surface (1) will be absorbed by the MOFs(4) which will cause it to release the trap (captured ) molecules (H2O, CO2) leaving the frame work to be empty . after the sand storm has past, the temperature on the surface(1) will start to decrease. With the low temperature and empty MOFs, molecules of H2O and CO2 will be absorbed by the MOFs(4), this process will generate heat on the surface (1). This heat will be conducted through the front of the surface (1) to the back side being in contact with the hot side of the thermometric device (3). As the temperature increase on the high Temperature side of the thermometric device (3) it will generate heat via the thermometric effect. So as can be seen the device will operate in two cycles. The first cycle will be the on during the sand storm where the heat is going to be generated due the sand particles (2) scratching the surface (1) and the heat that is generated will be transfer to the thermometric device (3) leading to energy generation, also some part of the heat will be absorbed by the MOFs (4) causing it to release the trapped molecules (H2O and CO2). The second cycle will be in operation when there is no sand storm and no particles (2). During this mode the heat will be generated due to the adsorption process of MOFs(4) that will adsorb H2O and CO2 and generate heat. The heat will be transfer across the surface (1) to the thermometric device (3) and generate electricity. The second cycle will stop when the MOFs are full, at that time the third cycle will be active where the device can work as a solar cell, as the sun heats the surface (1) the heat will be transfer to the thermometric device (and generate electricity ) and some part of the heat will be absorbed by the MOFs and release. As the temperature decrease the device will be working on the second cycle mode and if there is a sand storm the device will be on the first cycle mode. Once the MOFs are full the device will be working of the third cycle mode.
In the end the device is meant to be operating all day, wither it is to used to transfer heat from the surface (1) to the thermometric device (3) due to sand particle friction (2) (first cycle mode), MOF adsorption heat (second cycle mode) or sun heat ( third cycle mode ). The second part of the device will be related to releasing and adsorbing the H2O and CO2 by the MOFs, in which the first and third cycle will be responsible to release the particles by absorbing the heat (energy ) from sand particles (2) scratching the surface (1) (first cycle mode) or by the sun heat ( third mode ) . the second cycle mode will be the MOFS generating heat by adsorbing the H2O and CO2 and transferring it ot the thermometric device.'
i have also attached a file with the drownings and some equation to help see the full picture.
