Abstract

Because of its excellent performance, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) transducers are commonly used to convert pulse kinetic energy into electrical energy. To quantify the relationship between the transducer's input pulse stress and output electrical energy, this study established a voltage output model by simplifying the pulse stress into a triangular pulse. Then, the model's reliability was verified through three experiments, and the causes of model deviations were determined. Subsequently, the influence of the transducer (area A and piezoelectric constant K), pulse stress (pulse rise time t1 and loading rate F1), and circuit (load resistance Rm and PVDF capacitance CP) on energy conversion were analyzed with the model. Results show A, K, and F1 are directly proportional to the maximum output voltage Vmax. As Rm increases, Vmax increases and gradually approaches the limit value, AKF1t1/CP. When the peak stress remains constant, the influence of t1 on Vmax is opposite to that of Rm. When CP is larger than t1/10Rm, reducing CP leads to Vmax increases, and the increasing rate is maximized as CP approaches t1/2Rm. This study clarifies the influence of key parameters in the harvester on its energy output characteristics, which is helpful for its optimizing design in different applications.
