Summary, etc. The increasing global demand for sustainable and efficient energy sources due to<br/>environmental concerns is pressing. Energy harvesting from fluid flows provides a promising<br/>option for renewable energy generation, and the development of self-sustaining devices is crucial<br/>for practical implementation. In this regard, the need to study the impact of varying the size of<br/>bound region on energy harvesting is necessary, which is significant for the optimal design of<br/>portable devices due to the establishment of boundary layer. Therefore, this experimental study<br/>aims to investigate the effect of changing the distance between wall boundaries on the performance<br/>of a piezoelectric-based energy harvester in generating electrical energy from fluid flow. A series<br/>of experiments were conducted to analyze the dynamical behavior of a piezoelectric flag due to<br/>gap variation and the impact of boundary layer thickness (δ) on its behavior. The setup involved<br/>placing inverted C-shaped (120-degree cut) and circular cylinders in a uniform fluid flow, utilizing<br/>the undulating motion of the piezo flag in the downstream vortices to harvest electrical energy.<br/>The distinct flapping modes were observed in the experimental results which can create varying<br/>degrees of coupling in the wake flow. The dynamic behavior of the piezoelectric flag was observed<br/>to be influenced by both the gap between cylinder and flag (Dx) and Cylinder to wall (Dy), leading<br/>to output power fluctuation. For each 𝑥<br/>∗ value, the power output levels were analyzed by<br/>experimentally varying Dx values from 1.0 to 5.0 for different values of Dy in terms of δ to find<br/>the optimal configuration. The cylindrical arrangement of both bluff bodies, characterized by Dy<br/>= 34.05δ and 𝑥<br/>∗ = 310 mm, exhibits a persistent pattern of peak power output within the range of<br/>2.0 ≤ Dx ≤ 3.0 due to continuous flapping and significant amplitudes. The inverted C-shaped<br/>cylinder (120o<br/>cut) shows a maximum gain of 83% in power output compared to the circular<br/>cylinder. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that certain spanwise gaps lead to low energy production<br/>due to boundary viscous effects and poor coupling of wake flow. This study provides valuable<br/>insights into the development of more efficient and optimal sustainable devices for remote<br/>practical applications and renewable energy sources, reducing dependence on conventional<br/>sources.
