Harnessing Electricity from an Electromagnetic field?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion centers on the feasibility of harnessing electricity from electromagnetic fields, specifically through RF energy harvesting. Participants clarify that while free energy concepts are dismissed as perpetual motion, RF energy harvesting is a legitimate area of study. The conversation highlights that any antenna can capture RF energy, but the challenge lies in converting that energy into a usable form. The importance of distinguishing between theoretical concepts and practical applications is emphasized.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of RF energy harvesting techniques
  • Familiarity with antenna design and functionality
  • Knowledge of energy conversion methods
  • Basic principles of electromagnetism
NEXT STEPS
  • Research RF energy harvesting technologies and applications
  • Explore antenna design for optimal RF energy capture
  • Investigate energy conversion methods for harvested RF energy
  • Study the principles of electromagnetism in practical applications
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, researchers, and hobbyists interested in energy harvesting technologies and applications, particularly those focusing on RF energy and antenna design.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what would happen if you tried harnessing Electricity from an Electromagnetic field?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Yao you mean an electric motor, or a transformer?

If you mean free energy from nowhere, that is perpetual motion and discussion of that is not allowed on physics forum.
 
Ok
Thanks
