Applied Physics Letters, 103(3), 033904. | Series/Report no.: | Applied physics letters | Abstract: | A 40 mm electromagnetic energy harvester driven by both rainwater and air is designed and experimentally tested. Its performance is first assessed by measuring the system response for 4 different levels of air flow excitations. It shows that about 0.5 W power is generated. Parametric analysis is then conducted in terms of the disc number, exhaust flow rates, and the inter-disc distance. Finally, it is used to harness energy from rainwater. It is found the harvester works much better than the air-driven one. And its energy conversion efficiency is reduced with increased disc diameter. The maximum electric current is 4.5 mA. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/98151 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/13324 |
