Abstract

This paper presents a magnetic coupling piezoelectric energy harvester based on galloping and vortex-induced vibration to scavenge low-speed wind. The influence of magnet spacing on the piezoelectric energy harvester is analyzed by using a mathematical model. The power generation performance of the energy harvester is explored by changing the magnet spacing. The experimental results show that the distance is negative related to the onset wind speed. Vortex induced vibration still make the system have voltage output. The output power can be effectively improved by increasing the magnet spacing while the magnetic force beyond a certain range can be ignored.
