Problems solved by technology

Although the two-electrode and top-electrode configurations show advantages in terms of output peak voltage, their performance is largely dependent on the impact location of the droplet with the solid material, and the electrodes are inevitably corroded due to the direct exposure to water, As a result, such devices have a short service life and are not suitable for application as basic water conservancy facilities.
As for the bottom electrode device, although its structure is relatively simple, the voltage output is relatively low
The surface charge density can be improved by introducing micro/nanostructure surface or charge injection to optimize the electrical output performance of such devices, but the micro/nanostructure is also worn due to repeated contact and friction, which is difficult to maintain and has a short service life. Injection requires hundreds of thousands of volts of high voltage, the conditions are harsh and relatively dangerous, and it is also not conducive to the application of infrastructure

Example Embodiment

[0035] Example 1 Preparation of a hydroelectric power generation and flow monitoring device based on a half-covered hollow electrode structure

[0036] like figure 1 As shown, a hydroelectric power generation and flow monitoring device based on a hollow electrode structure is composed of an electrode 1, a hydrophobic insulating layer 2, and a liquid source 3; the electrode 1 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hydrophobic insulating layer 2, and the electrode 1 is not completely The lower surface of the hydrophobic insulating layer 2 is covered to present a "semi-covered hollow" electrode / hydrophobic insulating layer structure. The liquid source 3 is located above the hydrophobic insulating layer 2 , and the liquid in the liquid source 3 can be in contact with the upper surface of the hydrophobic insulating layer 2 and cause relative movement. In this embodiment, the hydroelectric power generation and flow monitoring device is placed at an inclination of 45° with respect

[0051] Example 3

[0052] Except that the liquid source 3 (liquid) is the continuous turbulent flow of tap water flowing out of the outlet of the urban indoor faucet (the diameter of the water outlet is about 5 mm, and the average flow velocity of the water flow in this embodiment is about 0.5 m / s), the other parts are the same as the experimental device of this embodiment. The experimental apparatus of Example 2 is the same. In this embodiment, the liquid 3 is obtained by flowing down the tap outlet at a height of about 20 cm above the hydrophobic insulating layer 2 , and then contacts the upper surface of the hydrophobic insulating layer 2 and flows disorderly. The rest of the implementation steps are the same as in Example 2.

Abstract

The invention provides a water energy power generation and flow monitoring device based on a hollow electrode structure. The water energy power generation and flow monitoring device can fully collect water energy and convert the water energy into electric energy. The device comprises electrodes, a hydrophobic insulating layer and a liquid source. The hydrophobic insulating layer is provided with surface charges, an electric signal measuring instrument is arranged between the electrode and the grounding electrode, liquid makes contact with the hydrophobic insulating layer in the hollow-out edge area of the electrode along with area change of the contact surface above the electrode, so that the contact area outside the electrode participates in electrostatic induction, and counter charges move between the electrode and the grounding electrode. Therefore, the mechanical energy of the liquid is converted into electric energy, and the flow state change of the liquid is monitored. The power generation device is simple in structure, has remarkably enhanced electric signals compared with a full-coverage electrode structure, is wide in application range and can utilize water energy more effectively.
