Performance Estimation of Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging System Based On Magnetic Coupling

Abstract

In order to achieve an efficient wireless Electric Vehicle (EV) charging system in non-ideal practical scenarios, a proper design guideline has been delineated through the simulation, theoretical calculation as well as experimental investigation. It is examined that the wireless power transfer efficiency (WPTE) is invariably affected by the configuration of the charging coils (coil radius & number of turns), coupling to loss ratio, ohmic loss, radiation resistance, operating frequency, magnetic coupling as well as physical air gap between the coils. It is found that there is a certain operating regime at which maximum WPTE can be uphold. The acquired results provide a comprehensive strategic plan that can be used in EV charging system
