Abstract
Piezoelectric energy harvesting from rotating applications can be realized by the use of harvesters, the basic part of which is a piezoelectric material. Such harvesters have various structures but most of them contain a cantilever composite beam, which consists of the carrying material and the piezoelectric material. A diversification of the harvester structures is, above all, the result of the application of additional mechanical structures, the task of which is to deform the cantilever composite beam. In contrast to these approaches, this article presents the simulation and laboratory investigation of the piezoelectric energy harvesting from a rotating shaft without the use of any additional mechanical structure. Energy harvesting was realized by the use of macro fiber composite (MFC), which was directly glued onto the rotating shaft surface, instead of on a cantilever beam being a part of the additional mechanical structure. In the theoretical part of the article, a mathematical model of piezoelectric energy harvesting from the rotating shaft with the use of MFC was elaborated. This model was verified on the basis of the laboratory experiments. On the basis of the simulation and laboratory experiments it was found that both an increase in the rotation frequency of the shaft and an increase in the stress in a rotating shaft caused a linear increase in the voltage generated by the MFC and caused an exponential increase in power generated by the MFC. These characteristics are significantly different to the characteristics obtained for harvesters consisting of a cantilever beam, in which the maximal value of a voltage and a power is generated only for a resonant frequency of a cantilever beam. In spite of these differences the optimal load resistance for the specific rotation frequency of the shaft can be calculated from the formula used to calculate the optimal load resistance for a harvester based on a cantilever beam.
