Possibilities of Energy Harvesting from the Suspension System of the Internal Combustion Engine in a Vehicle

The automotive industry faces huge challenge in environmental protection by reducing fossil fuels and energy consumption developing various practical solutions harvesting. current analysis is related to the diesel engine power supply system a passenger off-road vehicle for application of piezoelectric harvesting system. Experimental tests were carried out three constant rotational speed values - 800, 1000 1500 rpm. results pertained operational simulation available options from suspension vehicle, e.g. sensors supervising engine’s operation or other small electrical devices vehicle. simulations output voltage conducted means a nonlinear model with resonator coupled elastic beam deformed magnetic field improve band frequency transducing kinetic mechanic into electric energy.
