Angle Optimization For Energy Harvest From Raindrop Kinetic Energy Using PVDF Thin Film Piezoelectric Transducer
Renewable energy is critical for sustainable development, especially in regions facing power shortages. This study explores an innovative method for harvesting rain kinetic energy using Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) thin film piezoelectric transducers. The paper focuses on optimizing the angle of the transducer to maximize energy conversion efficiency. Experimental results demonstrate that vertical alignment of the transducer yields the highest energy output, offering a promising solution for emergency energy harvesting in regions with intermittent power supply.
