Power generation in a tubular structure by way of electromagnetic induction

Electrical power may be generated by way of electromagnetic induction through oscillating linear translation driven by the flow of a fluid being transported through a tubular structure. In exemplary embodiments, a conductive coil is disposed in a fixed position along a length of a tubular structure such that the conductive coil encircles the tubular structure. A linear translation apparatus is disposed radially inward from the conductive coil and is configured to move linearly parallel to a longitudinal axis of the tubular structure and within the conducting coil by harnessing mechanical energy from fluid flowing within the tubular structure. Magnets are affixed to the linear translation apparatus to cause electrical power to be generated in the conductive coil by way of electromagnetic induction responsive to the magnets passing by the conductive coil when the linear translation apparatus is in motion.
