The document discusses piezoelectricity and how it can be used to generate electricity from mechanical energy in a piezoelectric car. Piezoelectricity was discovered in 1880 and involves generating a voltage when crystals are compressed or deformed. A piezoelectric car uses arrays of piezoelectric crystals embedded in the tires, which generate electricity when the tires roll over rough surfaces. The electricity is stored and can be used to power the car's electrical systems or charge batteries, providing an alternative to fossil fuels. While this reduces pollution, the output of current piezoelectric materials is only sufficient for low-power applications.
In this presentation, it proposes efficient method of storing energy by the use of piezoceramic. It is very reliable to use
piezo ceramic for generating electrical energy which can be used for powering any portable devices. The basic concept
of piezo ceramic is that the mechanical strain applied on to the ceramic such as bimorph or unimorph piezo converts it
into electrical energy. In the present day scenerio, wherein there is great demand for energy, this idea of piezoelectric
concept works well.
Piezo electric based harvesting is a kind of renewable energy which senses the mechanical vibration into electrical output. In this slide we have study the feasibility of a piezoelectric energy harvester capable to power up low power electronic and electrical circuit.

A sensor that utilizes the piezoelectric effect, to measure changes in acceleration, strain, pressure, and force by converting them into electrical charge is called as a piezoelectric sensor. Piezo is a Greek word which means ‘press’ or ‘squeeze’. Piezoelectric effect causes the occurrence of electric dipole moments in solids due to the pressure applied to certain solid materials such as piezoelectric crystals, ceramics, bone, DNA, and some proteins that generates electric charge.

Modelling and Analysis of Single Diode Photovoltaic Module using MATLAB/SimulinkIJERA Editor
The growing concern over environmental degradation resulting from combustion of fossil fuels and depleting
fossil fuel reserves has raised awareness about alternative energy options. Renewable energy system is perfect
solution of this problem. This paper presents a mathematical model of single diode solar photovoltaic (SPV)
module. SPV cell generates electricity when exposed to sunlight but this generation depends on whether
condition like temperature and irradiance, for better accuracy all the parameters are considered including shunt,
series resistance and simulated in MATLAB/Simulink. The output is analyzed by varying the temperature and
irradiance and effect of change in shunt and series resistance is also observed.

3. INTRODUCTION
The battery range for many electric vehicles is limited,
meaning that such methods of transportation can only
be used for short trips.
In extended range vehicles manufacturers provide an
internal combustion engine that uses conventional
fuels to recharge batteries in motion & hence extend
their range.
But in order to reduce environmental pollution, a
piezoelectric energy assisted car, using piezoelectric
effect for charging the batteries in motion, can be
taken as a better alternative.
4. HISTORY
Piezoelectricity was discovered in 1880 by two brothers,
Pierre and Paul-Jacques Curie ,who found that when a
certain type of crystals, including Quartz, Tourmaline And
Rochelle salt were compressed along certain axes, a voltage
was produced on the surface of the crystals. This effect is
known as piezoelectric effect.
White Quartz Rochelle Salt
5. What is a crystal?
A class of material arranged in a definite geometrical
pattern in three dimensions (table salt and sugar are
common examples)
Quartz Crystal is silicon and oxygen arranged in a
crystalline structure (SiO2).
SiO2 is also found abundantly in nature in a non-
crystalline structure (“amorphous”) as sand.
6. A method for predicting the behavior of a
crystal: The unit cell
+ Represents silicon atom
- Represents oxygen atom
Not actually correct, but this method allows
a good understanding of quartz crystals
7. The unit cell of crystal silicon dioxide

+
As we can see that there is no inversion centre & hence a
quartz crystal shows piezoelectric effect………
8. How piezoelectricity works
Normally, the charges in a piezoelectric
crystal are exactly balanced, even if
they're not symmetrically arranged.
The effects of the charges exactly cancel
out, leaving no net charge on the crystal
faces. (More specifically, the electric
dipole moments—vector lines
separating opposite charges—exactly
cancel one another out.)
If you squeeze the crystal , you force the
charges out of balance.
Now the effects of the charges (their
dipole moments) no longer cancel one
another out and net positive and negative
charges appear on opposite crystal faces.
By squeezing the crystal, you've produced
a voltage across its opposite faces—and
that's piezoelectricity!
9. The Piezoelectric Effect
Crystal material at rest: No forces applied,
so net current flow is 0
Crystal
+-+-+-
Current Meter
=0
Charges cancel +-+-+-
each other, so
no current flow
10. The Piezoelectric Effect

+++++ deflects in +
direction
Due to properties of symmetry,
charges are net + on one side &
net - on the opposite side: crystal gets
thinner and longer
11. The Piezoelectric Effect
Changing the direction of the
applied force………..
Crystal
++++

…. Changes the direction of
current flow, and the crystal gets
shorter and fatter.
12. The electromechanical nature of piezoelectric material
In general, if you deform a piezo crystal by applying a force,
you will get charge separation: Think of a simple battery.
Taking it one step further, what would happen to the
crystal if you applied an electrical force that results in the
exact same current flow from the proceeding circuit?
13. The electromechanical effect
Now, replace the current meter with a power source capable
of supplying the same current indicated by the meter….
Crystal

+-+-+-
charges cancel power source
+-+-+-
…. With the switch open, the crystal material is now at rest again:
the positive charges cancel the negative charges.
14. The electromechanical effect
When the switch is closed, and we apply the exact amount
of power to get the same current that was detected when the crystal
was squeezed , then the crystal should deform by the same amount!!

…. and, the crystal should get shorter and fatter.
15. The electromechanical effect
What will happen if you switched the battery around??

…. the crystal should get longer and skinnier.
16. PIEZOELECTRIC GENERATORS
Piezoelectric generator is nothing but a piezoelectric
crystal sandwiched between two metallic electrodes.
So when a mechanical pressure/stress is applied on the
crystal , an emf is generated across the metallic plates
provided.
17. IMPORTANCE
The converse effect is also possible i.e. when the emf is
applied along certain electrical axes in the crystal ,this
crystal produces mechanical vibrations. This effect,
known as converse piezoelectric effect, is used in
many practical devices such as buzzers , Ultrasonic
filters & sonar for producing Ultrasonic waves.
18. IMPORTANCE
This effect is implemented in a variety of practical
devices such as microphones, phonograph pick-ups
and wave filters in telephone communications systems
and electric power generation etc.
19. PIEZOELECTRIC CAR
Each of these piezoelectric car tires
is equipped with an array of highly
bendable PZT benders covering
most of the inner surface .The
output due to deformation of tires,
which is an AC waveform has to be
converted into DC signal by a
rectifier before it can be cached in a
capacitor . Each row of benders,
running across the width of tire is
taken as one generator & is rectified
separately with all PZT lines
connected in parallel.
At any given time only three or four
rows , depending on the length of AN ARRANGEMENT OF
the contact patch , generate power. PZT BENDERS IN A TIRE
20. Since rectifiers provide very high resistance for reverse
flow of current the remaining PZT benders behave as
disconnected & hence inverse piezoelectric effect can
not occur.
The following curve shows Voltage and Power across a
1000Ω load at various rotations per minute.
21. Power is extracted from the tire-wheel system using a
commutator-like assembly i.e. one that continuously
maintains the electrical contact between the chassis
and the wheel while allowing the latter to spin freely .
Such a setup permits the extraction of tire-generated
power to run on-board electronics.
The energy obtained in this method depends on two
factors –tire surface area , rpm at 100 km/h. So greater
the surface area more will be the output.
If a huge amount of power can be extracted so as to
charge the batteries of an all-electric engine then no
fossil fuel will be required to provide power reducing
the pollution . Such a concept vehicle is named as
P-Eco.
23. ADVANTAGES
1. Reduces environmental pollution.
2. By using Lead Zirconate piezoelectric crystals, we
can generate until 10000 volts by small deformations of
the tire.
3. It helps increase a car’s efficiency.
24. IMPROVEMENTS
However piezoelectric materials’ output has only been
sufficient for low-energy-consumption gadgets. To
obtain high-power output, a large area of tires’ inner
surface must be filled with PZT benders.
Since PZT elements have limited flexibility ,high
deformation areas of the tire such as sidewalls could
not be covered . So a more flexible polyvinylidene
fluoride is being developed for increasing power
output.
