Abstract

Energy harvesting is a clean technology to obtain energy from the surrounding environment such as wind, sun, vibration and so on. In particular, the current TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring Device) is very small and attached to the outside of a vehicle and power supply of the TPMS is limited. Therefore, energy harvesting using vibration energy of piezoelectric materials is important to the TPMS. In this paper, we analyzed several models using ANSYS which is one of the FEA (Finite Element Analysis) package and compared corresponding strain frequency response functions of the TPMS. In addition, we confirmed that dynamic characteristics variations according to geometry changes have effects on the performance of the TPMS.
