Abstract
The principles and theoretical foundation of a method for realizing high-power generation are introduced. The external energy source for generating power is the total gravitational field energy. Sawtooth-pulse quasi-DC electricity is generated by an electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC) in an electrostatic field electromechanical system. Useful electricity can be generated by harvesting static charges that accumulate on the EDLC electrodes, which have high intrinsic surface capacitances. The system undergoes an electric cycle consisting of three steps: energy storage by electrostatic induction, power generation, and initialization by electromechanical coupling. A net output power can be generated by repetition of cycles with periods of the order of seconds. The electromechanical coupling was simulated by utilizing the gravitational field energy, which is available in the surroundings. This energy cycle obeys the law of conservation of energy.
