Re: Scythe talks science!
Imagine a KERS like system for an electric car. If the heating of the brakes could be harnessed using these pyrovoltaic crystals, you could have something interesting on your hands. I guess it ultimately comes down to efficiency. Why bother with a bulky thermal energy recovery system on a phone when a bigger battery would net you a longer battery life. As for strapping one to an RTG, it comes down to whether your crystals are more efficient than the thermoelectric effect, which I'd suspect they aren't.The Shadowscythe wrote:
