Abstract Currently, new methods of energy transformation are of interest. The results of the researches in the directions of anisotropic transformation of electric energy show that the existing devices are characterized by a small coefficient of transformation. This is primarily due to the use of unipolar anisotropic materials and the appearance, as a result, in their volumes the electric vortices that are characterized by a laminar flow. This article proposes a new method of energy transformation, which is carried out by means of vortices with turbulent character of flow. According to our studies, such vortices appear in devices working on the basis of bipolar anisotropic materials. Depending on the characteristics of such material, they can be used as generators of electricity, heat, and cold. Their work is based on the transformation of the electric current by the bipolar anisotropic electric conductive medium and their further interaction with the external energy environment. These anisotropic materials in selected crystallographic directions are characterized by different p‐ and n‐types of conductivity providing the presence of ohmic contact between the layers. The leakage of the external electrical current of the sinusoidal form through this rectangular plate causes the appearance in its volume the electric current vortices with turbulent character of the current. For the first time it is shown that such a method of energy transformation is an effective mechanism that transfers energy between the external environment and the anisotropic plate.
