Abstract
Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) is a key enabling technology towards the transportation electrification, able to overcome some limits of the plug-in charging of the Electric Vehicle (EV). In this frame, a special attention is paid to the dynamic WPT systems, where the EV is recharged during motion. This paper presents a model and a resultant method for the system level design of a series-series WPT Dynamic Battery Charger (WPT-DBC) for EVs. The model allows analyzing the joined influence of coil pair characteristics and power converter stages controls on the global performances of WPT-DBCs. The design method provides general guidelines for system level optimization, matching the characteristics of the power and control elements of a series-series WPT-DBC, to achieve the desired efficiency, receiver power loss and battery charge.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
