Abstract

Energy harvesting in fluid environments plays an important role in the application of small sensors in the fluid environments. In order to extend the energy harvesting range of harvesters and improve their practicability, we add a guide wing to the most commonly used cylindrical-cantilever beam structure. This paper reports how the height of the guide wing influences the performance of the energy harvester. The results indicate that in the present embodiment, when the guide wing and the bottom end of the vibrating body have a distance of 20 mm, the surface stress distribution of the vibrating body is most suitable for energy harvesting.
