“…It acts as a filter, producing a sinusoidal current at IPT frequency into the primary magnetic structure for inductive power coupling. The conversion from electrical energy to magnetic energy occurs in the primary magnetic structure, which can be either an elongated loop for distributed systems [38,[59][60][61] or a lumped planer coil [12,15,22,[62][63][64][65] for lumped systems. The primary magnetic structure is often referred to as a track.…”

Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) systems can transfer electrical power from a power source to an electrical load wirelessly over relatively large air gaps. Such systems have a number of advantages as they are unaffected by dirt, ice, water and other chemicals, and are thereby environmentally inert and maintenance free. High-power applications of IPT systems include contactless charging of electric vehicles, materials handling systems and public transport systems, while typical low-power applications include wireless charging of biomedical implants and cellphones.High power Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) systems normally operate at power levels of 100kW or more. However, existing high power IPT power supplies are typically designed for specific power levels and, in low volume, are particularly expensive to make, due to the use of high power electronic components. This thesis presents an alternative method for realizing high power IPT power supplies by connecting multiple identical LCL-T based IPT power supplies in parallel across the track inductor. Both open-loop and closed-loop characteristics of the parallel topology are investigated.Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisors Prof. Grant Covic and Prof. John Boys for introducing me to the field of Inductive Power Transfer, and continuously supporting and guiding me throughout my study. Their deep insights and positive attitudes have always been very encouraging.I would also like to thank Dr. Andrew Green for his valuable guidance on the mathematical derivation of the small-signal model of the power supply. Without his help, Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 of this thesis might not be possible.

This paper presents a comparison between an interior permanent magnet synchronous machine (IPMSM) with two different windings. The two windings subject to this analysis are concentrated six-and concentrated three-phase windings. The focus is put on concentrated windings, because by using this type of winding production costs can be kept low. The mentioned IPMSM is designed for the use in an electrical bike (E-Bike), the size of which is therefore limited by the frame of the bike. This leads to just a few possible combinations in the numbers of slots and poles of the machine. Concentrated six-phase windings have the possibility to reach higher values in the winding factors than three-phase windings of the same machine. The assumption that the six-phase winding generates more torque and reaches a higher efficiency than the three-phase winding is tested in a finite element simulation. The results of this simulation have shown that there can be an increase of the torque production of up to 2 % and a better efficiency of 0.4 % with concentrated six-phase windings with a BLDC commutated current.

“…In this paper, a prototype demo system for the wireless charging of a supercapacitor model vehicle is reported, which uses magnetic resonance coupling. This is a demonstration of the concept of wireless charging to pure EVs powered by on-board supercapacitors alone, other than hybrid EVs in which supercapacitors serve as an auxiliary energy storage device [16] [17].…”

This paper discusses the basic considerations and development of a prototype demo system for the wireless charging of supercapacitor electric vehicles, which uses magnetic resonance coupling. Considering future ubiquitous wireless vehicle stationary and dynamic charging facilities, supercapacitor could be an ideal device to store a reasonable amount of electrical energy for a relatively short period of time. The prototype system includes all the major functional components for an electric vehicle’s powertrain and wireless charging system including coils for energy emitting and receiving, a FPGA PWM input generation board, high frequency DC/AC inverter and AC/DC rectifier circuits, an on-board supercapacitor module, sensors for SOC level measurement and charging position detection, etc. All the components are integrated into a model electric vehicle. The prototype system well demonstrates the idea of the fast and frequent wireless charging of on-board supercapacitors. Promising results from initial experiments are explained; while further investigations, optimized design of components and a system-level optimization are needed.
