Body Heat Energy Harvesting For Charging the Cardiac Pacemaker Battery

چکیده مقاله

This research aims to establish whether or not it is possible to recharge the battery of a cardiac pacemaker by employing a hybrid system consisting of thermoelectric generators and wireless power transfer systems. It is hoped that by combining these two approaches, it will be possible to improve the effectiveness and longevity of cardiac pacemakers and reduce the number of surgeries required to replace batteries. The research indicates that a single thermoelectric generator that operates nonstop for 365 days can recoup at least 0.5792 Wh of lost energy annually.
