MEEN 4410 - Energy Harvesting System Design

3 hours

Energy harvesting is the conversion of ambient energy present in the environment into electrical energy. Energy harvesting system has a wide range of applications, including energy efficiency enhancement for a system, embedded power source for wireless sensor networks, embedded power for biomedical devices. Introduces the design of energy conversion and storage systems from mechanical energy, including mechanical vibrations, thermal energy, and other energy sources.
