A Study of Magnetic Coupling Characteristics of Dual Receiver Coil for Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer

For the problem of fluctuation of transmission power and load voltage between magnetically coupled mechanisms in the dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT) system of the electric vehicles (EV), a magnetically coupled mechanism with dual receiving coils (R-C) of electric energy on the receiving side is proposed in this paper. The transmitting coils (T-C) are connected in parallel in a multi-stage manner flat on the road, and when the EV drives above a section of T-C, this T-C is energized to charge the EV. In the paper, the theoretical model of the circuit and the theoretical model of the magnetic circuit of the dual R-C magnetic coupling mechanism are first established. The feasibility of this structure is verified through the derivation and calculation of the working principle of the system. Finally, the simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the coupling mechanism. The experimental results further demonstrate that the magnetically coupled structure with dual R-C can effectively reduce the power fluctuation during the T-C switching and reduce the laying of T-C to reduce the cost.
