Development of an electromagnetic vibrational energy harvesting system
Abstract
The project proposes to develop a power generation system that can harness the mechanical vibration from ambient electromagnetic energy. The system employs an electromagnetic transducer which is able to convert the vibration energy into electrical energy. The system consists of copper coils, four magnets, two fixed and two movable. Fixed magnets are placed at two open ends of a cylinder and movable magnets are arranged in a way such that they remain floated inside the cylinder due to the interaction of the fixed magnets.
