Abstract

Vibration is an omnipresent energy source that is renewable and has the potential to cause damage to transmission lines. Harvesting harmful vibration energy can achieve vibration attenuation. Here, a vibration-driven triboelectric nanogenerator (V-TENG) with the potential for vibration attenuation is proposed as a power source for monitoring the operating condition of transmission lines. The V-TENG with structural optimization and frequency response range improvement is first discussed, indicating that it has a simple structural design with a good output performance. Then an energy management circuit is used to improve the charging efficiency of large capacitors. The vibration attenuation effect and wireless transmission system are verified in the simulation environment, benefiting from the well-designed structure and outstanding electric performance. This work demonstrates an efficient strategy for harvesting vibration energy through the TENG, which provides valuable guidance for further construction of online monitoring of transmission lines.
