A new product by StroNGER, currently under development in collaboration with ESA: an advanced sensor for the optimum energy management in building HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Condition) systems.
Essentially, PiezoTSensor consists in an Energy
Harvesting (EH) device that uses a piezoelectric bender and an appropriate customizable aerodynamic fin that takes advantage of specific air flow effects (principally Vortex Shedding) for producing energy. The sensor is completed with a temperature probe.

PiezoTSensor - Unique Selling Proposition
• PiezoTSensor harvests a higher amount
of energy from air flow, and thus has a
higher autonomy, something that can
lead to a higher sampling rate.
• PiezoTSensor generates energy from an
intrinsic characteristic of HVAC
systems (the air flow inside the ducts),
achieving an optimal integration.
