ELECTRICAL GENERATION
An electrical generation apparatus is described comprising a magnetic mass (18) magnetically attracted to a guide member (14) such that the mass (18) is moveable, in use, along a path defined by the shape of the outer periphery of the guide member (14), the mass (18) being moveable past a coil (20), and at least one repulsion magnet (16a, 16b) of the same polarity as the mass (18) and positioned to repel the mass (18) such that the mass (18) undertakes a pendulum-like reciprocating motion, repeatedly passing the coil.
Electromagnetic Kinetic Energy Harvester
An electromagnetic energy harvesting system for converting kinetic excitations of a body to electricity. The system includes a coil, a magnet, and a push-back magnet that is fixed to the body. The magnet is connected to the body by an axial connection that enables the magnet to rotate about the axis of rotation that is distal from the center of gravity of the magnet. The push-back magnet exerts repulsive force on the magnet rotates the magnet about its axis of rotation in a way that the center of gravity of the magnet rotates away from the push-back magnet. The kinetic excitations of the body cause the magnet to rotate about its axis of rotation in a way that the center of gravity of the magnet rotates towards the push-back magnet, and as a result the rotations of the magnet create alternating voltage between ends of the coil.
Free Piston Generator Based on Split Thermodynamic Cycle
Provided is a free piston generator based on a split thermodynamic cycle, which belongs to the technical field of power energy. The present disclosure solves the problem of low power generation efficiency of an existing free piston generator. The free piston generator includes a linear generator set and two internal combustion engine sets arranged at two ends of the linear generator set. Air is first subjected to first-stage compression by the low-pressure cylinder set in the internal combustion engine sets and is then subjected to second-stage compression in the high-pressure cylinders, so that the intake pressure of an internal combustion engine is effectively increased, which is favorable for increasing the average effective pressure in a work process, thereby improving the thermal efficiency and the power generation efficiency of the free piston generator. A combusted working medium is first subjected to first-stage expansion in the high-pressure cylinders and is then subjected to second-stage expansion in the low-pressure cylinders, which effectively increases the utilization rate of energy in exhaust gas, increases the expansion work, and further improves the thermal efficiency and the power generation efficiency of the free piston generator.
