Human Body Heat Energy Harvesting Using Flexible Thermoelectric Generator for Autonomous Microsystems
ABSTRACT This paper reports on a thermoelectric generator (TEG) used for converting human body heat energy to electrical energy. The proposed TEG was composed of a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate and thermocouples. The use of PDMS provides flexibility to the TEG and low thermal conductivity that helps minimize losses in the effective heat flowing through the thermocouples. The proposed TE...
متن کاملEnergy Harvesting From Human Body Using Thermoelectric Generator
A powerful approach to the characterization of cellular electrical activity is electrical recording from cells or living tissues. In this paper, we propose a new approach to feed implantable system, the system designed is an energy harvesting circuit that supplies a power to battery of implantable medical devices through wireless communication module. A thermoelectric generator is employed to h...
متن کاملThin Thermoelectric Generator System for Body Energy Harvesting
Wearable thermoelectric generators (TEGs) harvest thermal energy generated by the body to generate useful electricity. The performance of these systems is limited by (1) the small working temperature differential between the body and ambient, (2) the desire to use natural air convection cooling on the cold side of the generator, and (3) the requirement for thin, lightweight systems that are com...
متن کاملFlexible substrate electrostatic energy harvester
Energy harvesting is attractive for powering wireless sensors, especially in applications such as body sensor networks and pervasive sensing, where power source replacement or recharging is impractical. A MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) electrostatic harvesting device suitable for body motion has been reported previously, using a rolling rod as the proof mass. A new rolling rod device i...
متن کاملDevelopmemnt of Flexible Thermoelectric Generator Using Fpcb
We proposed the flexible thermoelectric generator (TEG) using double side FPCB (flexible printed circuit boards). The proposed flexible thermoelectric generator has the unique vertical structure. The heat of the flexible thermoelectric generator flows vertically via plated through hole (PTH). The n-type (Bi-Te) and p-type (Sb-Te) thin films are deposited by the co-evaporator and patterned using...
