Model of the triboelectric generator

The core of the article solves the microsystem model of the electric generator based on the triboelectric effect. The aim was to verify the possibility of using triboelectric effect, verifying properties using macromodel, determine the essential characteristics, finding the optimum load, output voltage and output power achieved. Attention is given to the three basic principles of activities - the vertical sliding, the lateral sliding, the shift of one electrode with the free triboelectric layer. The attention is focused on information about the structure design, information of the measured parameters with free triboelectric layer, where have been achieved the best results. Different structures have been designed, realized and measured, the example of structure with the free triboelectric layer was realized by mechanical machining of the cardboard paper, aluminum foil and teflon (PTFE). The output voltage reached amplitude of 40 V at the load 1MΩ.
