Keywords: entropy harvesting; entropic force; gravity; natural energy harvesters Our paper introduces the concept of "entropy harvesting" in its relation to real physical systems. harvesting, and implement it in physical systems, where entropy decreases as a result of naturally or 2. Entropic Forces and Physical Systems Suitable for Entropy Harvesting represents an entropy harvester, exploiting so-called "entropic force". typical for the entropic-driven effect, the osmotic pressure drop depends linearly on the temperature entropic harvester, shown in Figure 3, will perform the mechanical work. between hydrophobic particles, the suspension will harvest entropy. We supplied a number of examples representing "entropy harvesters", however the simplest possible entropy harvester is a box containing gas, depicted in Figure 1B. in Equation (4) may be interpreted as the efficiency of energy harvesting (the harvested entropy The efficiency of entropy harvesting increases ./cache/work_j3mnbx5nd5atxlhb2kuzymio4m.pdf ./txt/work_j3mnbx5nd5atxlhb2kuzymio4m.txt
