Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Triboelectric

👉 Triboelectricity is a phenomenon that occurs when electrical charges in a material are released when it is placed near an electric current. This process can be used to generate electricity, which is then used for various purposes such as lighting, heating, and communication. The mechanism of triboelectricity involves the release of electrons from the surface of the material during an electric field.

triboelectricity

👉 In electrical engineering, a triboelectric effect is a phenomenon in which electrically charged materials such as metals or conducting surfaces can generate electrical energy. This process is named after the German physicist Hermann von Boer (1845-1926), who proposed it in 1873. A triboelectric device, also known as a triboelectric cell or a triboelectric circuit, consists of two electrodes, one with an electric field and another with a negative
