Abstract

A generator includes a liquid tank, a high temperature device and a nozzle unit. The liquid tank has a receiving room. The high temperature device is disposed on a surface of the liquid tank. The nozzle unit includes a tank, an injecting tube, a nozzle and an oscillating device. The tank is disposed in the receiving room and filled with a working fluid. The injecting tube has one end communicating with the tank. The nozzle is disposed on a surface of the tank and faces the high temperature device. The oscillating device is disposed on the tank to induce oscillation of the working fluid in the tank, wherein the oscillation changes the pressure of the working fluid so that the working fluid is pulled towards the nozzle and is sprayed on the high temperature device by the nozzle.

Claims

1. A generator, comprising:

a liquid tank having a receiving room;

a high temperature device disposed on a surface of the liquid tank; and

a nozzle unit having a tank, an injecting tube, a nozzle and an oscillating device, wherein the tank is disposed in the receiving room and is filled with a working fluid, the injecting tube has one end communicating with the tank, the nozzle is disposed on a surface of the tank and faces the high temperature device, the oscillating device is disposed on the tank to induce oscillation of the working fluid in the tank, and the oscillation changes the pressure of the working fluid so that the working fluid is pulled towards the nozzle and is sprayed on the high temperature device by the nozzle.

2. The generator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the high temperature device is coupled with a conduction member disposed in the receiving room of the liquid tank.

3. The generator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the oscillating device is a piezoelectric film.

4. The generator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the high temperature device is coupled with a cooling system.

5. The generator as claimed in claim 4, wherein the cooling system includes a heat-conducting device coupled with the high temperature device.

6. The generator as claimed in claim 5, wherein the heat-conducting device has one face abutting against a heat-storing medium made of a porous material.

7. The generator as claimed in claim 6, wherein the face of the heat-conducting device that abuts against the heat-storing medium is a saw-toothed face to increase the contact area between the heat-conducting device and the heat-storing medium.
