    Författare :Elof Köhler; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; coupled harvester; piezoelectric harvester; piezoelectric; Energy harvester; thermoelectric harvester; harsh environment; thermoelectric; self-tuning;

    Sammanfattning : Four types of energy harvesters aimed for gas turbine applications were developed during this thesis. The unique gas turbine environment shaped the design- and material choices. A semiconductor thermoelectric harvester was built for a location in the gas turbine with active cooling at 600°C, with 800°C wall temperature. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Energy Harvesting and Energy Storage for Wireless and Less-Wired Sensors in Harsh Environments
