A Study on the Efficiency in the Energy Harvesting Device Using Resonance of Pendulum
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Methods
3. Results and Discussion
4. Conclusions
- A mathematical analysis model of a generator using the resonance of the pendulum was constructed, and the time taken to start power generation and the amount of work input to the generator were derived.
- The potential energy of the pendulum was defined as amount of power generated the pendulum from the power generation angle at which power generation was started, and the output work of the generator was derived.
- The efficiency of the generator was defined using the work input to the generator and the work output, and the design variables affecting the generator efficiency were presented.
- The effect of the design variables on the efficiency of the generator was confirmed using an efficiency graph that considered the pendulum length, pendulum mass, and the angle at which power generation is started.
- As an additional study, it may be possible to manufacture an energy harvesting device using the resonance of the pendulum and measure the power generation efficiency according to design factors.
- To consider the practical effect of the energy harvesting device using the resonance of the pendulum in this study, future studies on the model including the pre-generator and motor and generator (MG) may be conducted.
