Polypropylene membrane decreases contact wear of piezoelectric transformer with heat transfer structure

Abstract: A new design is presented to decrease the contact wear between a piezoelectric transformer and its heat transfer structure by inserting a layer of polypropylene membrane between them. Without significant degradation of performance, the wear problem is well suppressed with notable extension of working life. Compared with the former wear rate of 2.72% per day on the electrodes in the first 2.5 working days, the wear rate with polypropylene membrane is decreased to only 0.03% per day within an accumulated working… Show more

“…It is greatly improved when HTS is applied to PT device. When the PP membrane is employed as a TIM and the power density approaches 100 W cm −3 , the temperature rise comes to about 11 K with an efficiency of 87%, which was similar to Ju's results [24]. It is even better when CNT arrays served as TIM in the device.…”

“…When the PT separates from the CNT arrays TIM after operating continuously for about 120 days, the surface is still with metallic luster and the silver electrode is well covered without significant wearing damage when compared with the initial state. For comparison purpose, previous work of the wearing problem with PP membrane also showed in figure 9(b) [24]. As can be seen, for the PT with PP membrane, stains due to wearing started to develop in the middle region of PZT plate after working for 110 days.…”
