Abstract
In inductive power transfer applications, it is possible to ensure high efficiency of the main coils by operating at the optimum load. Since the optimum load depends on the coupling between the main coils, the operation needs to be adapted to match this case at different alignment conditions. This paper proposes a method to keep the optimum load constant by varying the natural resonant frequency of both the primary and secondary circuits of a S-S compensation network. This is possible by changing the value of the compensation capacitors at different alignments. This strategy differs from the ones found in the literature, where the input and the output voltage are changed to always match the optimum load. The proposed concept is proven through circuit simulations of an 11 kW EV battery charging system, and several strategies for the implementation of the variable capacitance are discussed.
