The use of piezoelectric material as transducer is prevalent. Piezoelectric bending mode element can be used for vibration energy harvesting because it can convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. In this article, electrical impedance characterization and equivalent circuit of triple-layer piezoelectric bender are discussed. Triple-layer piezoelectric bending device is fabricated, measured and modeled. This paper is aimed to explore simple but practical equivalent circuit models, expressed using electrical parameters of triple-layer piezoelectric bender and investigate the applicability of the Van Dyke circuit model and the complex circuit model in modeling the specimen’s equivalent circuit. The models produced impedance curves that closely matched the impedance measured for piezoelectric sample. The impedance characterization can provide a good understanding on the electrical behaviors of the triple layer piezoelectric bender when analyzing the performance of piezoelectric device.

This paper provides a characterization of the electrical energy consumption of agrifood industries located in the central region of Portugal that use refrigeration systems to ensure the food safety. The study is based on the result analysis of survey data and energy characteristics of the participating companies belonging to the following agrifood sectors: meat, dairy, horticultural, distribution and wine. Through the quantification of energy consumption of companies is possible to determine the amount of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions indexed to its manufacturing process. Comparing the energy and GHGs emissions indexes of companies of a sector and between sectors is possible to create reference levels. With the results of this work is possible to rating the companies in relation to reference levels of energy and GHGs emissions and thus promote the rational use of energy by the application of practice measures for the improvement of the energy efficiency and the reduction of GHGs emissions.

Recently, supercapacitors have attracted a tremendous amount of attention as energy-storage devices due to their high-power density, fast charge–discharge ability, excellent reversibility, and long cycling life. In this research work, we demonstrate a laser scribed super capacitor based on polyimide (PI) substrate for the storage of electrical energy. PI substrate of thickness 200μm and area 1cm × 1cm was reduced by a laser engraver with a 450 nm wavelength in the form of stackable supercapacitor electrodes. Although, PI itself exhibits non-conductive behavior; however, by laser irradiation we change the surface properties of PI and reduce its resistance. The chemical property of irradiated PI was characterized with XRD where the carbon peak was observed at 2*theta = 25.44, which confirms the reduction of PI material in to a graphene-like substance. The electrical conductivity was analyzed with a probe station and observed to be 1.6mS. Two conductive regions were assembled into a capacitor device by sandwiching a PVA/H3PO4 electrolyte in between. During the charging and discharging characterization of the capacitor device, current density was observed to be 1.5mA/cm2. Capacitance versus voltage analysis was carried out and the device showed 75mF/cm2 against a voltage sweep of ±2V. The galvanostatic charging and discharging curve shows a symmetric behavior with respect to time exhibiting the stability and durability of the device.

Recently, radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting (RFEH) has become a promising technology for a battery-less sensor module. The ambient RF radiation from the available sources is captured by receiver antennas and converted to electrical energy, which is used to supply smart sensor modules. In this paper, an enhanced method to improve the efficiency of the RFEH system using strongly coupled electromagnetic resonance technology was proposed. A relay resonator was added between the reader and tag antennas to improve the wireless power transmission efficiency to the sensor module. The design of the relay resonator was based on the resonant technique and near-field magnetic coupling concept to improve the communication distance and the power supply for a sensor module. It was designed such that the self-resonant frequencies of the reader antenna, tag antenna, and the relay resonator are synchronous at the HF frequency (13.56MHz). The proposed method was analyzed using Thevenin equivalent circuit, simulated and experimental validated to evaluate its performance. The experimental results showed that the proposed harvesting method is able to generate a great higher power up to 10 times than that provided by conventional harvesting methods without a relay resonator. Moreover, as an empirical feasibility test of the proposed RF energy harvesting device, a smart sensor module which is placed inside a meat box was developed. It was utilized to collect vital data, including temperature, relative humidity and gas concentration, to monitor the freshness of meat. Overall, by exploiting relay resonator, the proposed smart sensor tag could continuously monitor meat freshness without any batteries at the innovative maximum distance of approximately 50 cm.

The third generation of solar cells found by Gratzel in 1991 was called Dye-sensitized Solar Sell (DSSC). DSSC is composed of five parts, namely transparent conductive glass as a substrat; titanium dioxide as a semiconductor materials; chlorophyll as a dye sensitizer, carbon as a catalyst which can convert energy of light into electrical energy. Characterization of DSSC will be carried out in this research covering electrical characterization using RLC meter & I-V meter, optical characterization using Spectrophotometer. TiO2 nanoparticle in in anatase phase having size of 13 nm used in this experiment was synthesized by co-precipitation method. Photoanode with thickness of 10 μm has the lowest resistance compared to the other thickness of 30 μm and 50 μm. The device applying photoanode of 10 μm shows the highest efficiency up to 0.1141 %, while those with other thicknesses respectively gives 0.0378%, and 0,0283%, revealing the efficiency becomes lower with the increasing thickness of TiO2.

In this paper, we analyze the methods of diagnosis and control the functional state of power oil transformers in electrical substations. Oil transformers are the most efficient converters of electrical energy, which is reflected in a higher efficiency in comparison with dry transformers. Oil transformers are designed to work with power grids in large industrial complexes where energy conversion is required to protect equipment from sudden voltage surges. The high loads associated with this work require timely diagnosis and maintenance of transformers. The article discusses the most commonly used methods for diagnosing deviations of the technical parameters of electrical substations in the process of their operation. The authors proposed a method of impedance series-parallel identification, which allows not only to determine the equivalent circuit of the power oil transformer, but also to diagnose possible malfunctions. Functional circuits of the device for impedance series-parallel identification of faults in power oil transformers have been developed.
