Right here is a tumbler called the Green Smart Glass, and it’s meant for the cuppa addicts to put their piping hot beverage to good use. Most often people wait for their hot drinks to cool down a bit before consuming it. Now if they were to use this smart glass, then the heat loss process would be harnessed into an energy form, to be used later. While the technical details are very aptly described in the images, for you to ponder on, my only concern is the cleaning process. Will the glass withstand the dishwasher…or do we have to come up with a solution!

Great idea heat recovery. A sort of heat pump in a single glass. Super! Let efficiency be less than 50%, but energy is not wasted. Another question is the cost of the finished product. Naturally, that buying is not energy efficiency, and functionality. Super idea.

It would be really great if these "designers" took some basic physics classes and learned something about THERMODYNAMICS. For thermoelectric generation to function a temperature difference is requires: the vacuum barrier effectively eliminates that. Moreover the conversion efficiency of thermoelectric materials is quite low, the thermoelectric voltage will likely not match the storage battery, the efficiency of storing electricity in the battery and then using stored energy to run the thermoelectric materials in reverse (for heating or cooling) will also be low.
All in all the energy "recovered" will likely be dwarfed by the energy requirements for mining, refining, processing, and fabricating the materials required for the battery, circuits, and thermoelectric metals.

impossible!!! too much function, too much component, but no space…..

also, only the water prove parts for buttons and electronics also need a lot of space

certainly like your web site however you need to test the spelling on several of your posts.
Many of them are rife with spelling problems
and I to find it very troublesome to inform the reality then again
I’ll definitely come back again.
