An innovative approach to heat energy harvesting (HEATec) is proposed in this paper. It consists of a two-step conversion of heat into electricity. The first step is a thermo-mechanical conversion by a bimetal and the second is an electromechanical conversion by a piezoelectric. The first developed prototypes show natural thermal resistance matching between their body and the interface with ambient...
Thermal g radients, c ommonly p resent i n o ur e nvironment (fluid lines, warm fronts, electronics) are sources of energy rarely used today. This paper aims to present innovative approaches of thin and/or flexible thermal energy harvesters for smart and autonomous sensor network applications. The harvester system will be based on the collaborative work of interrelated energy nodes/units, which will...
