Abstract
This paper provides a numerical simulation study of Magnetically Circular Layers of Triboelectric Nanogenerators (MCL-TENGs) for energy harvesting and self-powered sensing. The MCL-TENGs generate electrical energy by means of the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy through contact electrification and electrostatic induction. This paper concentrates on the numerical modeling of the copper/aluminum MCL-TENG and compares simulation results with experimental findings. The voltage comparison of copper MCL-TENGs (OC) between experimental and numerical simulations at 2000, 2500, and 3000 rpm showed Cu-EXP configuration voltages ranging from 4.1 to 4.4 V and Cu-FEM setup voltages ranging from 4 to 4.4 V. Meanwhile, aluminum MCL-TENGs showed Al-EXP configuration voltages ranging from 4.08 to 4.35 V and Al-FEM setup voltages ranging from 4 to 4.3 V across the third layer. The system can enhance the energy efficiency and sustainability of coastal bridge infrastructure by harvesting surplus energy from mechanical motion and converting it to electricity for self-powered sensing and monitoring systems.
