Energy harvesting using magnetostrictive materials: Effects of material anisotropy and stress multiaxiality

Résumé

Low-frequency vibrations are common as background noise in urban and industrial environments. They originate from natural or artificial sources: road vehicles, industrial machinery, wind, etc., and constitute a ubiquitous energy source. In the framework of energy harvesting, magnetostrictive materials are an attractive alternative solution to the brittleness and geometrical limitations of piezoelectric materials. While numerous previous works dealt with uniaxial stress on selected materials, the exploration of the effects of multiaxial loadings and material anisotropy has not yet been investigated as a way to improve the performance of low-frequency vibration energy harvesting systems. In this work, we investigated the capability of grain-oriented electrical steel in an energy-harvesting context. This material has been selected as a model material, notably as it is abundant and cost-effective. It shows limited magnetostriction but significant elastic, magnetic, and magnetostrictive anisotropy. We combined experimental and predictive simulation results to discuss the possibility of increasing the levels of harvested energy by playing with the orientation of magnetic and mechanical stimuli. Various orientations of magnetic field and mechanical stress were considered with regard to the rolling direction of the material. Unexpectedly high energy density amounts, up to 10 mJ·cm−3, were obtained, competing with giant magnetostrictive materials like Terfenol-D or Galfenol.
