Crystal Hybridized Pyro-Piezoelectric Ferrofluidic Harvester (1809.09694v1)

Published 22 Aug 2018 in physics.app-ph

Abstract: This paper investigates the usage of a hybridized Pyro-Piezo Ferrofluidic harvester to capture useful energy from ambient vibration and temperature fluctuation. Consisting of a ferrofluidic core, the proposed device utilizes pyro and piezoelectric materials to charge an integrated ultracapacitor for 'trickle' energy harvesting and usage. In particular, a wearable or implantable hybridized crystal quartz piezoelectric and PZT pyroelectric based ferrofluidic harvester is characterized under human ambient energy boundaries. The frequency associated with typical bodily movement such as walking and strenuous bodily movement such as running was determined via accelerometer and analyzed via fast fourier transform, with determined mean frequencies of 1.7 Hz for typical bodily movement and 4.3 Hz for strenuous movement. Under an optimal continuous harvestation period of ~24 hours, the CQF harvester was characterized with a energy harvestation of 7.89 MJ
