Mechanical Amplifier for Translational Kinetic Energy Harvesters
This paper reports the design, optimization, and test results of a mechanical amplifier coupled to an electromagnetic energy harvester to generate power from lowamplitude (±1 mm) and low-frequency (<5 Hz) vibrations in the presence of large static displacements. When coupled to a translational kinetic energy harvester, the amplifier boosts small vibration amplitudes by as much as 4x while accom...
متن کاملEnergy Harvesters for Human-Monitoring Applications
This paper introduces the basics of energy harvesters and demonstrates two specific vibratory-type energy harvesters developed at the University of Hyogo. The fabrication and evaluation results of the vibratory-type energy harvesters, which employ electrostatic and electromagnetic mechanisms, are described. The aim of developing these devices is to realize a power source for an autonomous human...
متن کاملPyroelectric Harvesters for Generating Cyclic Energy
Pyroelectric energy conversion is a novel energy process which directly transforms waste heat energy from cyclic heating into electricity via the pyroelectric effect. Application of a periodic temperature profile to pyroelectric cells is necessary to achieve temperature variation rates for generating an electrical output. The critical consideration in the periodic temperature profile is the fre...
متن کاملAdaptable, High Performance Energy Harvesters
Energy harvesting has become a very popular research topic over the last 12 years, but has only made an industrial impact in a few areas, noticeably in process plant monitoring, including the water and petrochemical processing industries. Like most technologies, greater adoption needs to be realized if performance is to increase and cost to decrease. Batteries cost only tens of pence per Wh, an...
متن کاملGenetic Algorithm Optimization for Mems Cantilevered Piezoelectric Energy Harvesters
A design optimization based on genetic algorithms for increasing power output performance of MEMS piezoelectric cantilevered energy harvesters has been performed. By employing genetic algorithms, the piezoelectric energy scavenging system with optimized shape and lateral geometries of a unimorph cantilever beam and a proof mass is simulated to achieve a power response improvement of ~1.8× in co...
