As a promising energy‐harvesting technique, an increasing number of researchers seek to exploit the piezoelectric effect to power electronic devices by harvesting the energy associated with water flow. In this emerging field, a variety of research themes attract interest for investigation; these include selection of the excitation mechanism, oscillation structure, piezoelectric material, power management interface circuit, and application. Since there has been no comprehensive review to date with respect to the harvesting of water flow using piezoelectric materials, herein relevant work in the last 25 years is reviewed. To ensure that key aspects of the water‐flow energy harvester are overviewed, they are discussed in the context of energy‐flow theory, which includes the three stages of energy extraction, energy conversion, and energy transfer. The development of each energy‐flow process is reviewed in detail and combined with meta‐analysis of the published literature. Correlations between the harvesting processes and their contribution to the overall energy‐harvesting performance are illustrated, and directions for future research are also proposed. In this review, a comprehensive understanding of water‐flow piezoelectric energy harvesting is provided and it is aimed to guide future research and the development of piezoelectric harvesters for water‐flow‐powered devices is promoted.

Energy harvesting induced from flowing fluids (e.g., air and water flows) is a well-known process, which can be regarded as a sustainable and renewable energy source. In addition to traditional high-efficiency devices (e.g., turbines and watermills), the micro-power extracting technologies based on the flow-induced vibration (FIV) effect have sparked great concerns by virtue of their prospective applications as a self-power source for the microelectronic devices in recent years. This article aims to conduct a comprehensive review for the FIV working principle and their potential applications for energy harvesting. First, various classifications of the FIV effect for energy harvesting are briefly introduced, such as vortex-induced vibration (VIV), galloping, flutter, and wake-induced vibration (WIV). Next, the development of FIV energy harvesting techniques is reviewed to discuss the research works in the past three years. The application of hybrid FIV energy harvesting techniques that can enhance the harvesting performance is also presented. Furthermore, the nonlinear designs of FIV-based energy harvesters are reported in this study, e.g., multi-stability and limit-cycle oscillation (LCO) phenomena. Moreover, advanced FIV-based energy harvesting studies for fluid engineering applications are briefly mentioned. Finally, conclusions and future outlook are summarized.

“…To realize large-scale power generation for industrial purposes, researchers investigate the energy-harvesting capabilities of arrays of multiple PEHs (Song et al, 2021). Some related efforts have been made in recent years (Fan et al, 2022; Long et al, 2022; Ramírez, 2021; Shan et al, 2021; Yan et al, 2021). Shan et al (2016) experimentally tested the performance of the proposed energy-harvesting system with two identical PEHs in a tandem configuration under the excitation of low-speed water flow.…”

Harvesting energy from flow using vortex-induced vibration (VIV) piezoelectric transducers has gained significant attention in recent decades due to their advantages, such as simple structure, blade-less layout, and low maintenance costs. However, most existing studies have focused on designing and analyzing a single piezoelectric energy harvester (PEH), without investigating the fluid-structure interaction and coupling of multiple PEH arrays. Here, we conducted an experimental study using a 2 × 2 PEH array to investigate its dynamic response under different wind speeds and spacings. Results show that the output voltage of the PEH array increases as the vertical spacing decreases, and the maximum average output voltage of 20.6 V per PEH is obtained when the minimum vertical spacing, maximum horizontal spacing, and resonance wind speed conditions are met. Compared to a single PEH, the 2 × 2 array arrangement increases the average output voltage by up to 168%. Additionally, the average output power under the resistance of 1 MΩ increases by 629% to 4.3×10−4 W per PEH, and the maximum output power increases by 792% to 5.3×10−4. Experiments indicate that the vortex shedding coupling can induce higher vibration in a well-defined array, which paves a new way for developing bladeless wind farms.
