AP23487678 "Development of a wide band, energy-efficient and compact converter of mechanical environmental vibrations into electrical signals"

Relevance

The working area of the newly designed device, which converts environmental vibrations into an electrical signal, is broadband.

Purpose

The aim of this project is to develop a broadband frequency converter of mechanical vibrations of the environment into electrical signals with a high degree of energy efficiency.

Expected and achieved results

The basic structure and electronic circuit of the device have been modeled, and a 3D model of the device designed to convert mechanical vibrations into an electrical signal has also been created. A prototype of the device was made and printed using a 3D printer. Experimental measurements of the device's output characteristics were carried out on the finished sample. Next, a mathematical model was developed and numerical solutions were carried out using this model. The results of numerical calculations were compared with the data obtained from experimental measurements. The comparison showed a good agreement between theoretical and experimental data. And also during the research it turned out that the proposed device is broadband, but low-energy efficient, we assume that the energy efficiency is influenced by the parameters of the coil and magnets. Work on these parameters is planned for next year. The results obtained have been compiled into an article and sent to a Russian journal.
