Vibration Energy Conversion Power Supply Based on the Piezoelectric Thin Film Planar Array
2022
Overview
Vibration energy harvesting has received much attention as a new type of power solution for low-power micro/nano-devices. However, VEH (vibration energy harvester) based on PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) piezoelectric materials have a low output power and energy conversation efficiency due to the relatively low piezoelectric constant, coupling coefficient, and dielectric constant. For this reason, we design a vibration energy conversion power supply, which consists of a VEH with a PVDF piezoelectric thin film planar array vibration structure and an energy harvesting circuit for regulating the electric energy of multiple sources. Furthermore, our solution was validated by simulations of structural dynamics in COMSOL and equivalent circuits model in Multisim. From the circuitry simulation results, the output current and the charging period increase and decrease, doubling, respectively, for each doubling of the number of array groups of films. Moreover, the solid mechanics simulation results show that the planar array structure makes the phase and amplitude of the input vibration waves as consistent as possible so that the same theoretical enhancement effect of the circuitry model is achieved. An identical experimental test was implemented with vibration conditions of 75 Hz-2.198 g. The fabricated harvester quickly charged the 22 V-0.022 F ultracapacitor bank to 5 V in 24 min. The maximum open circuit voltage and output power, respectively, were 10.4 V and 0.304 mW. This maximum charging power was 11.69 times higher than that of a single film. This special power supply can replace batteries to power low-power electronics deployed in vibrating environments, thus reducing the maintenance costs of equipment and environmental pollution rates.
