Applications of Serial-Parallel Compensated Resonant Topology in Wireless Charger System Used in Electric Vehicles

摘要

There are lots of factors that can influence the wireless charging efficiency in practice,such as misalignment and air-gap difference,which can also change all the charging parameters.To figure out the relationship between those facts and system,this paper presents a serialparallel compensated (SPC) topology for electric vehicle/plug-in hybrid electric vehicle(EV/PHEV) wireless charger and provides all the parameters changing with corresponding curves.An ANSYS model is built to extract the coupling coefficient of coils.When the system is works at constant output power,the scan frequency process can be applied to wireless power transfer (WPT) and get the resonant frequency.In this way,it could determine the best frequency for system to achieve zero voltage switching status and force the system to hit the maximum transmission efficiency.Then frequency tracking control (FTC) is used to obtain the highest system efficiency.In the paper,the designed system is rated at 500 W with 15 cm air-gap,the overall efficiency is 92 ％.At the end,the paper also gives the consideration on how to improve the system efficiency.
