“…Much research regarding pyroelectric energy harvesting has been reported from using the absorption of solar irradiation [19,20]. To provide stable and continuous electrical voltage and current, the main materials should be placed on the pyro-electrode [21,22]. Therefore, PCMs are the most appropriate candidates to achieve the main purpose of energy harvesting [23,24].…”

Integration of form-stable phase change material (PCM) composites with a pyro system can provide sufficient electrical energy during the light-on/off process. In this work, modified 3D porous graphene aerogel is utilized as a reliable supporting material to effectively reduce volume shrinkage during the infiltration process. Poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF) is used for a transparent pyro film in the pyro system. The temperature fluctuation gives rise to a noise effect that restricts the generation of energy harvesting. The cross-linked graphene aerogel consisting of PCM composites can stabilize the temperature fluctuation in both melting and cooling processes. This shows that PCM composites can be applied to the pyro system under the change of the external environment. To evaluate the experimental results, a numerical simulation was conducted by using the finite element method (FEM).
