Prospect of Micro Power Generation Utilizing VIV in Small Stream Based on Verification Experiments of Power Generation in Water Tunnel

The target of this research is to develop a micro electric power generator for a low cost small river monitoring device. Firstly, the power generation by vortex induced vibrations (VIVs), its performance coefficient and the optimum condition of the generator were estimated from energy balance analys...
