Thermal Assessment of an ERS for Static Charging of Electric Vehicles

摘要

A charging infrastructure of electric vehicles is important in order to make the transition from fossil fuels to electricity. There are multiple charging methods, one of which is to use an Electric Road System (ERS)as a static charger. The connection between an ERS and a vehicle is automatic and gives an advantage over other systems which require a human to connect a plug. The focus of the study presented here is on finding the limitations of a static charger based on an Alternating Short-Segmented ERS (ASSE).
