Abstract

The theory of thermal energy converters based on polyelectrolyte hydrogels has been developed. The possibility of providing the circulation of a fluid in the contour by controlled variations of the local value of concentrations of the mobile ions that cause an osmotic pressure gradient was shown. On the basis of the solution of motion equations of the mobile ions the numerical estimates of parameters of proposed type of circulation contour are given.
