Diseño de un generador tubular lineal usando el método de elementos finitos

Abstract

Currently there is a great interest from research and industry to adopt alternative energy technologies, tubular linear generators are a technology that still has potential both in its design and its applications, this paper presents the design and simulation of a linear tubular generator with the finite element method, the work starts from the design of a base topology with a generation of 10 W of power on which an improvement is made in its structure, specifically in the geometry of the teeth of the machine, multiple designs are presented with their respective analysis. Finally, 16 W are reached in the proposed solution, which exceeds the basic topology by more than 50%, a comparison is made with respect to the starting point and some application proposals are generated.
