Abstract

The design of the magnetic rolling pendulum, specifically the configuration of the magnetic bumpers, is crucial for harvesting energy from mechanical vibrations using system based on magnetic variable magnetic field and coils. This paper presents preliminary research focused on determining the RMS voltage generated by an example configuration of a magnetic rolling pendulum energy harvester when excited by base movement. Both numerical and laboratory analyses were conducted: numerical analysis using the finite element method to estimate the shape of the magnetic flux and magnetic force acting on pendulum. In addition, a wide spectrum of laboratory tests was conducted to measure the voltage across a wide range of excitation frequencies. Additionally, a mathematical model of the energy harvesting system was proposed for further numerical analysis, using estimated by FEM magnetic flux and force between bumpers and pendulum for its considered configurations.
