Descripción
Electrokinetic energy conversion in microfluidic systems is a subject of intense research at present, where the main objective is to improve the thermodynamic efficiency of the process. As a novel strategy to the problem, this work focuses on the fluid dynamic properties of the working fluid. It is shown that polymer solutions with wall depletion can substantially increase the conversion efficiency in comparison to simple electrolytes under the same operating conditions. The effect is given by a reduction of the hydrodynamic conductance, while the streaming current is unaltered. It is also found that the maximum efficiency of electrokinetic power generation differs from that of electroosmotic pumping, in contrast to the case of simple electrolytes. This is due to the non-Newtonian character of polymeric fluids, which leads to nonlinear electrokinetic relations.
