Wireless Data Transmission

Due to advancement in the field of technology in recent years, wireless data transmission techniques are commonly used in electronic devices. For powering them we rely upon power supply through wires charging, else power may be supplied from batteries. But while travelling for longer distances continuously we may not be able to obtain power supply for these devices to operate or to recharge their batteries. So in order to operate them continuously we need a power source that provides continuous energy to operate these devices. The mechanical vibrations which are produced by the automobiles can be utilized as a source of energy for generating electrical energy that can be utilized by these electronic equipment to operate. These vibrations are produced by different vehicles around us which is going as a waste. This technique utilizes piezoelectric components where deformations produced by vibrations are directly converted to electrical charge via piezoelectric effect and principle of electromagnetic induction between coil and magnetic field which produces Electromotive force in the coil provided displacement to magnet by the vibrations. The piezoelectric materials and permanent magnets are used as energy conversion devices for converting mechanical vibrations to electrical energy. In this context, we introduced two methods and considered its output performance provided input vibrations, by using piezoelectric materials such as PZT for electro mechanical conversion using Mass-spring system as medium of conversion of force from vibrations applied on PZT materials and by using spring-magnet system where relative displacement of magnet with respect to coil, provided input vibrations generates Electromotive force in coil.

Wireless Data Transmission

One of the crucial aspects of the environmental protection is continuous monitoring of environment. Specific aspect is estimation of the bird species population. It is particularly important for bird species being in danger of extinction. Avian monitoring programs are time and money consuming actions which usually base on terrain expeditions. Certain remedy for this can be automatic acoustical avian monitoring system, described in the paper. Main components of the designed system are: digital audio recorder for bird voices acquisition, computer program automatically recognizing bird species by its signals emitted (voices or others) and object-relational database accessed via the Internet. Optional system components can be: digital camera and camcorder, bird attracting device, wireless data transmission module, power supply with solar panel, portable weather station. The system records bird voices and sends the recordings to the database. Recorded bird voices can be also provoked by the attracting device. Application of wireless data transmission module and power supply with solar panel allows long term operation of digital sound recorder in a hard accessible terrain. Recorded bird voices are analysed by the computer program and labelled with the automatically recognized bird species. Recognition accuracy of the program can be optionally enhanced by an expert system. Besides of labelled sound recordings, database can store also many other information like: photos and films accompanying recorded bird voices/ sounds, information about localization of observation/ recordings (GPS position, description of a place of an observation), information about bird features and behaviour, meteorological information, etc. Database on the base of geographical/ geological digital maps can generate actual maps of bird population (presence, number of individuals of each species). Moreover data-base can trigger alerts in case of rapidly decreasing bird population. It is also possible to obtain new knowledge about bird species with data mining methods. The paper presents collected data on observed bird species (audio recordings, photos and films) as well as results of experiments testing particular components of the automatic acoustical avian monitoring system.

Piezoelectric materials can be use as mechanisms to transfer mechanical energy, usually ambient vibration into electrical energy ahtat can be stored and used to power other devices. With the recent advances in wireless and MEMS technology, sensors can be places almost anywhere necessary. Since these devices are devices are wireless it becomes necessary that they have their own power supply. This power supply in most cases is the conventional bettery, however problems can occur when using batteries bacause of their finite life span. When the battery is extinguished of all its power, the sensor must be retrieved and the battery changed. Because wireless sensors are developed so that they can be placed in remote locations such as structural sensors on a bridge or GPS tracking devices on animals in the wild, obtaining the sensor simply to replace the battery can become a very expensive task. Therefore, if a method of obtaining the untapped energy surrounding these sensors was implemented,significant life could be added to the power supply. One method is to use piezoelectric materials to obtain energy lost due to vibrations of the test specimen. This captured energy could then be used to prolong the life of the power supply or in the ideal case provide endless energy for the sensors lifespan. The goal of this study is to develop a model of the piezoelectric power harvesting device. This model would simplify the design procedure necessary for determining the approapriate size and vibration levels necessary for sufficient energy to be produced and supplied to the electronics devices. An experimental verification of the model is also performed to ensure its accuracy.

Abstract The paper presents results of the scale-up silo flow investigation in based on accelerometer signal analysis and Wi-Fi transmission, performed in distributed laboratory environment. Prepared, by the authors, a set of 8 accelerometers allows to measure a three-dimensional acceleration vector. The accelerometers were located outside silo, on its perimeter. The accelerometers signal changes allowed to analyze dynamic behavior of solid (vibrations/pulsations) at silo wall during discharging process. These dynamic effects are caused by stick-slip friction between the wall and the granular material. Information about the material pulsations and vibrations is crucial for monitoring the interaction between silo construction and particle during flow. Additionally such spatial position of accelerometers sensor allowed to collect information about nonsymmetrical flow inside silo.

Test Result

A permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) based on the principle of variable exciting magnetic reluctance (VMRPMSM) is presented. The motor is equipped with symmetrical non-magnetic conductors on both sides of the tangential magnetized permanent magnets (PMs). By placing the non-magnetic conductor (NMC), the magnetic reluctance in the exciting circuit is adjusted, and the flux weakening (FW) of the motor is realized. Hence, the NMC is studied comprehensively. On the basis of introducing the motor structure, the FW principle of this PMSM is described. The shape of the NMC is determined by analyzing and calculating the electromagnetic force (EF) acting on the PMs. We calculate the magnetic reluctance of the NMC and research on the effects of the NMC on electromagnetic force, d-axis and q-axis inductance and FW performance. The critical speeds from the test of the no-load back electromotive force (EMF) verify the correctness of the NMC design. The analysis is corresponding to the test result which lays the foundation of design for this kind of new PMSM.

Piezoelectric Nanogenerators

With the development of science and technology, the smaller sizes generator, the more attention by people. The main purpose of this article is to manufacture piezoelectric nanogenerator under micro vibration and its working principle is introduced and its performance is studied. The results show that, using the present nanomaterials, piezoelectric materials can be prepared. When its wind in copper laps, under the situation of micro pulse vibration its can turn into electrical energy, thus yield piezoelectric nanogenerators. In ambient vibration condition, piezoelectric materials produce larger rated current and voltage. However, copper laps cutting magnetic line of force produce less rated current and voltage. So the piezoelectric nanogenerators can be separately used to supply power. If multiple piezoelectric nanogenerator in tandem may produce higher voltage, current and power, which possess commercial value.
