Bimetal-and-electret-based thermal energy harvesters - Application to a battery-free Wireless Sensor Node
S. Boisseau, P. Gasnier, S. Monfray +4
This paper introduces a thermal energy harvester turning thermal gradients into electricity by coupling a bimetallic strip to an electret-based converter: the bimetallic strip beha…
Semi-flexible bimetal-based thermal energy harvesters
S Boisseau, G. Despesse, S. Monfray +2
This paper introduces a new semi-flexible device able to turn thermal gradients into electricity by using a curved bimetal coupled to an electret-based converter. In fact, a two-st…
Analytical model for Stirling cycle machine design
Fabien Formosa, Ghislain Despesse
In order to study further the promising free piston Stirling engine architecture, there is a need of an analytical thermodynamic model which could be used in a dynamical analysis f…
A bimetal and electret-based converter for thermal energy harvesting
S. Boisseau, G. Despesse, S. Monfray +2
This paper presents a new device able to turn thermal gradients into electricity by using a bimetal-based heat engine coupled to an electrostatic converter. A two-steps conversion…
Electrostatic Conversion for Vibration Energy Harvesting
