Abstract :
In future, demand on portable electronic devices will create the requirements of enduring recharged sources of power. A non-environmental friendly conventional battery with limited lifetimes has no longer feasible option. This work elucidate the design and simulation of MEMS based piezoelectric device which is capable of converting plenteous waste energy such as vibration asserted on the surface of various type of engines into electrical power. We at hand worked with theoretical modelling, Simulation and fabricating micro machined EHD. This novel design of energy harvester is capable of conserving energy from all kind of engines that we use in day to day life. Note- the mechanical FEA was conducted using COMSOL and Intellisuite.
