ELECTROSTATIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RECOVERING MECHANICAL ENERGY BY TRIBOELECTRIC EFFECT

摘要

A device for recovering energy including a first assembly and a second assembly facing each other, the first assembly including a first conductive element and a first dielectric element carried by the first conductive element, and the second assembly including a second conductive element. The first dielectric element is arranged between the first conductive element and the second conductive element. The device further includes a mechanism ensuring that the first dielectric element comes into contact with the second conductive element. A material of the first dielectric element and the material of the second conductive element have different triboelectric affinities.
