Abstract

Vibration energy harvesting (VEH) is viable solution for battery free and self-powered micro-/nano-systems. The ambient vibration available for harvesting is low, random and broad. Hybrid energy harvester provides an alternative to narrow bandwidth, high operational frequency and low-power density VEH. In this paper, nonlinear hybrid vibration energy is developed by integrating both piezoelectric and electromagnetic VEH. The piezoelectric energy harvester and electromagnetic harvester is optimized for low frequency and maximum power generation configuration. The device is designed for maximum stretching-induced nonlinearity and repulsive magnetic nonlinearity to achieve bistable-quartic (BQT) potential. The potential profile and restoring force is studied to show enhanced performance of the device. When excited at the natural frequency of 59 Hz and acceleration amplitude of 0.5 g, a total voltage generation of 2.6 V (Piezoelectric voltage = 1.8 V and induced electromagnetic voltage = 0.8 V) is reported. The hybrid design enhances the frequency bandwidth, power generation and off-resonance operation making it efficient to be used in broadband random vibration environments.
