Abstract

Industrial processes often involve rotating machinery that generates substantial kinetic energy, much of which remains untapped. Harvesting rotational kinetic energy offers a promising solution to reduce energy waste and improve energy efficiency in industrial applications. This research investigates the potential of electromagnetic induction for harvesting rotational kinetic energy from industrial machinery. A comparative study was conducted between disk and cylinder-shaped rotational bodies to evaluate their energy efficiency under various load conditions. Experimental results demonstrated that the disk body exhibited higher energy efficiency, primarily due to lower mechanical losses compared to the cylinder body. A power management circuit was developed to regulate and store the harvested energy, integrating voltage, current, and speed sensors along with a charge controller for battery storage. The experimental setup successfully converted rotational kinetic energy into usable electrical power, with the disk achieving up to 16.33 J of recycled energy, outperforming the cylinder. The disk body demonstrated higher energy recovery efficiency compared to the cylinder, particularly under the 40 W resistive load condition. These findings demonstrate the feasibility of implementing energy recycling systems in industrial settings to enhance sustainability, reduce energy consumption, and minimize waste. Future research should focus on optimizing power management systems and improving energy harvesting efficiency to enable wider adoption of energy recycling technologies in various industrial applications.
