在一定频率范围内有效操作的能量转换技术对于诸如海浪发电机的实际能量收集设备是重要的。介电弹性体是基于可变形电介质的电容能量的变化，并且是此类应用的候选者。在波浪水槽中对基于EPAM的波浪能采集系统的简单比例模型进行了试验，波浪周期为0.7 ~ 3 s，波高为2 cm ~ 6 cm。能量输出被发现在很大程度上是独立的波周期。(C)2012爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
An energy transduction technology that operates efficiently over a range of frequencies is important for practical energy harvesting devices such as ocean wave power generators. Dielectric elastomer is based on the change in capacitive energy of a deformable dielectric and is a candidate for such applications. A simple scale model of EPAM-based wave energy harvesting system was tested in a wave tank over a range of wave periods from 0.7 to 3 s and wave heights from 2 cm to 6 cm. The energy output was found to be largely independent of wave period. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
