Abstract
This research proposes a rotary motion-based non-contact pendulum piezoelectric energy harvester (P-PEH). The working region of the piezoelectric vibrator can be maintained in a magnetically coupled system at all times by means of a motion conversion mechanism. The combination of the motion conversion mechanism and the magnetic coupling system not only reduces the loss of the piezoelectric material, but also improves the output performance of the piezoelectric vibrator. The paper investigates the effects of the excitation distance L, the radius of the base circle R, and the number of excitation magnets N on the output performance of the P-PEH. When the input speed of 600 rpm, L = 10 mm, R = 21 mm, and N = 1, the peak-to-peak voltage (Vpp) is 58.75 V. At this parameter, the output power of the device with an external 20 kΩ load is 0.0187 W. The viability of P-PEH was finally demonstrated through several application testing. P-PEH can easily light up 63 LEDs while its output energy can keep the temperature and humidity sensor in use. In summary, P-PEH can effectively collect external rotational energy for power storage and supply, and supply electricity to wireless sensor networks and microelectronic devices with further studies.
期刊介绍:
Smart Materials and Structures (SMS) is a multi-disciplinary engineering journal that explores the creation and utilization of novel forms of transduction. It is a leading journal in the area of smart materials and structures, publishing the most important results from different regions of the world, largely from Asia, Europe and North America. The results may be as disparate as the development of new materials and active composite systems, derived using theoretical predictions to complex structural systems, which generate new capabilities by incorporating enabling new smart material transducers. The theoretical predictions are usually accompanied with experimental verification, characterizing the performance of new structures and devices. These systems are examined from the nanoscale to the macroscopic. SMS has a Board of Associate Editors who are specialists in a multitude of areas, ensuring that reviews are fast, fair and performed by experts in all sub-disciplines of smart materials, systems and structures.
A smart material is defined as any material that is capable of being controlled such that its response and properties change under a stimulus. A smart structure or system is capable of reacting to stimuli or the environment in a prescribed manner. SMS is committed to understanding, expanding and dissemination of knowledge in this subject matter.
