Abstract:
Energy harvesting is a process in which energies in nature are recycled on a small scale and used to power equipment such as sensors, data recorders and transmitters, IoT monitoring and applications. Recently, energy harvesting from a new model based on movements caused by vortices of wind and water flow has been considered. The fall of unstable vortices behind the body induces aero-hydrodynamic forces into the body. If the body has degrees of freedom of movement, the vortex phenomenon can cause the body to rotate or rotate, resulting in energy extraction. Previous studies show that very little activity has been done so far on energy extraction from the Stall flutter phenomenon. The main purpose of this dissertation is to design and build a test platform to study and evaluate the energy recovery from the mechanism of torsional oscillating airfoil under steady-flat and low speed conditions
