The intensive development of electric vehicles contributes to advancing battery charging systems. One of the promising areas is wireless charging systems based on inductive power transfer. However, parameter optimization of the resonant circuit’s inductances and capacitances can affect the wireless charging system’s efficiency.
This paper aims to optimize the constraint efficiency of wireless charging systems with LC-series compensating topology at a given resonant frequency and a given distance between transmitting and receiving coils. The constraints reflect dimensional restrictions on coils, ensuring transferred power is within an input voltage limit and limiting excess voltages on components. A mathematical model is used that assumes load as active resistance, no loss besides the ohm one, and the idealized inverter, rectifier, and power supply. The optimization criteria include four components: (1) the efficiency function1to be maximized; (2) the constraint function2determining the amount of transferred power to be lower limited; (3) and (4) the constraint functions3and4determining the excess voltage on the primary and secondary capacitors that to be upper limited. The dependencies are established using a frequency domain to describe each component of the optimization criteria on the resonant circuit parameters of the wireless charging systems. Due to complexity, some resonant circuit parameters are treated as constants in the given circumstance and discarded. Next, the dependencies between the rest of the parameters are obtained using Chebyshev polynomial approximation through the least-squares method, reducing the parameters to the coil inductance. Moreover, the dependencies1()~4() are compared with their boundary conditions. Thus, the resonant circuit parameters that fulfill optimization criteria are theoretically obtained.
The presented constrained efficiency optimization is validated using the specially-made wireless charging system for the electric truck ET-20132. Addressing various sources of loss, including those caused by the skin effect, transistors in the high-frequency inverter, diodes in the high-voltage bridge rectifier, and control schemes, is considered. Comparison of experiments and theoretical analysis shows good convergence at the resonant frequency 91.3 kHz, with acceptable deviations beyond the frequency range (approximately below 88 kHz and beyond 96 kHz). The wireless charging system normally operates within the frequency range of 91.3 kHz to 92.5 kHz, where the experimental load current closely aligns with the model, indicating that all the required power is transferred. Minimal average deviations between experiments and theoretical analysis are voltages on the primary and secondary side capacitors. The experimental results generally exceed model predictions. The efficiency can reach 91%.
Electric vehicle, wireless charging system, resonant magnetic circuit, LC-series compensation, constrained efficiency optimization, transfer function, parameters approximation
Various kinds of electric vehicles with high- capacity batteries have been intensively developing in the last decade. Along with it, the infrastructure for charging their batteries is also elaborating. Currently, there are AC and DC charging systems with capacities from one to hundreds of kilowatts[1-2]in most of which the electric vehicle is plugged with a special electric cable. At the same time, there are wireless charging systems[3-4]including high-power ones that use the inductive power transfer technology based on transmitting the energy of high frequency alternating electromagnetic field in resonant mode from the transmitting coil to the receiving coil and so do not require a cable connection with electric vehicles to charge their batteries[5-6]. Elimination of direct connection increases the reliability of the charging system and contributes to the development of human-free self-driving vehicles, as battery charging can then be easily automated and performed without human involvement.
In the 20th century, there were only a few pieces of research related to wireless power transfer, but after the MIT publication[7]significant attention in this field was formed. One of the challenges is to optimize the parameters of wireless charging systems to provide the best efficiency and the maximum power transfer ratio.
To solve such a parameter optimization task, there are two mutually supplementing approaches. The first one is used at the development stage and performs the efficiency optimization of the wireless charging system for specified operating conditions. The second approach is used in exploitation and provides the best efficiency under changing operating conditions such as supply voltage deviations, the distance variations between the off-board transmitting coil and the on-board receiving coil, or the system load changes.
To optimize the wireless charging system in exploitation, the control system is used which depending on feedback from sensors makes adjust- ments, for example, voltage adjustment on the transmitting and receiving side[8]or changes of capacitance in the compensation topology circuits[9]. Such a control system gives the best result if the wireless charging system has the parameters already optimized at the design stage. Therefore, each of the optimization approaches deserves consideration. This research is focused on optimization at the develop- ment stage.
Since the central element of the wireless charging system is a spatially distributed electro- magnetic field, the most accurate parameters opti- mization at the development stage is performed using three-dimensional finite-element method[10]. For example, this method can be used for coil and magnetic-core shapes optimization to maximize the coupling coefficient[11].
However, using of three-dimensional finite- element method makes the designing and optimizing processes time-consuming and expensive in com- puting[12]. In fact, it provides certain optimal parameters of the wireless charging system equivalent scheme. That is why optimization based on the plain equivalent scheme does not consider how exactly the electromagnetic field is spatially distributed but works effectively enough. So, in this research, such an approach is chosen as preferred.
As an illustration of this approach, several publications can be mentioned that investigate the dependencies between the efficiency and the design of the transmitting and receiving coils of wireless charging systems as well as their horizontal and angular displacement, and propose the optimal design of the coils[13-20]. For instance, the optimization technique[19]ensures the minimization of the coils copper to maximize efficiency. In substance, they determine how the mutual inductance influence on the efficiency and power transfer ratio of the wireless charging system.
Optimization also can use dependencies of the efficiency and power transfer ratio on the load resistance that have their limits[21-23]. However, in practice, such optimization is hardly applicable, as the load resistance is determined by the type of battery being charged and there is no possibility to vary its value to reach the optimum.
Another way considers that when the resonant frequency is fixed, the efficiency, power transfer ratio, and other characteristics depend on the ratio of the inductances of the coils to the capacitance of the resonant circuit capacitors so the wireless charging system might be optimized through varying the values of compensating circuit parameters[24-25].
Given the above and considering that the implementation of wireless charging systems is related to technical constraints, this paper proposes the constrained efficiency optimization for such a system at the given resonant frequency and the given distance between the transmitting coil and the receiving coil. It is supposed that the optimization under discussion concerns the development stage than exploitation. The constraints reflect the required transferred power under the voltage limit of the power supply and the reliability of semiconductor switches and passive elements of the resonant circuit.
The research is carried out for the wireless charging system with LC-series compensating topology as it provides the best power transfer ratio[26]and the resonant frequency is minimally sensitive to the mutual inductance[27-30]. The last-mentioned property of the LC-series compensating topology ensures that the system has little sensitivity to distance changes between the coils since the mutual inductance is the only parameter that depends on the distance. That means even if the distance between the coils varies during operation, the wireless charging system will have the efficiency not far from the maximum.
For practical implementation and experimental validation of the proposed technique, the wireless charging system with a capacity of 3.6 kW is used which is applicable to electric truck ЕТ-20132 shown in Fig.1. This application imposes restrictions on the size of the receiving coil of 600 mm×300 mm, the nominal charging current for onboard traction batteries is 36 A at the voltage of 100 V, based on which the equivalent load resistance is approximately 2.8W.
Fig.1 Wireless charging system implemented to the electric truck ЕТ-20132
The wireless charging system under con- sideration consists of the dual-stage high-frequency inverter supplied from the industrial AC grid, the resonant circuit including transmitting and receiving coils with compensating capacitors, and the rectifier that charges the battery. The primary side of the resonant circuit is stationary, and the secondary side is on-board. The equivalent circuit of the wireless charging system with LC-series compensating topology is shown in Fig.2 and the mathematical model of this system in a time domain is as follows:
where uin is the input voltage; uC1 is the capacitor voltage at the primary side; uC2 is the capacitor voltage at the secondary side; i1 is the transmitting circuit current; i2 is the receiving circuit current that equal to the load current; R1, R2, C1, C2 are primary and secondary sides resistances and capacitances consequently; Rload is the equivalent resistance of the battery; R2Σ is sum (R2+Rload); L1, L2 are transmitting and receiving coils inductance consequently; M is mutual inductance between primary and secondary sides.
The above mathematical model is given to the following assumptions: ① capacitor losses are not considered; ② the inverter and the rectifier are not regarded, and the power supply is ideal; ③ the load is active resistance, determined by the nominal current and charging voltage of the battery; ④ the current displacement effect is not considered.
As the main purpose of this research is the efficiency optimization of the wireless charging system, it is necessary to ensure the maximum efficiency of power transfer through the resonant circuit. Additionally, when developing the wireless charging system, there is a need to pay attention to the restrictions on the size of the transmitting and receiving coils and even more so to limitations on electrical parameters of the system associated with the reliability of semiconductor switches and passive elements of the resonant circuit like the permissible capacitor voltage in the resonant circuit. Another factor is obligatory to transfer through the resonant circuit no less than the required amount of power under the voltage limit of the power supply.
Based on the foregoing, the constraint opti- mization is suitable to the described task and the optimization criteria can be mathematically repre- sented as follows
where1(,) is the efficiency function to be maximized;2(,) is the constraint function determining the amount of transferred power to be lower limited;3(,),4(,) are the constraint functions determining the excess voltage on the primary side capacitor and the secondary side capacitor to be upper limited;is the angular frequency of the resonant circuit currents and voltages;[111222load]Tis the resonant circuit parameters vector;2min(,),3max(,),4max(,) are the boundary conditions of the corresponding functions that define the area of efficiency optimization.
As the optimization under discussion concerns the development stage, the main idea is to realize the parameter optimization i.e. to find the optimal components ofensuring the optimization criteria (2) fulfillment. To get the optimization criteria in the parametric form transfer functions are used. It is the appropriate tool because the mathematical model (1) of the wireless charging system is linear, and a transfer function being input-output relation can be regarded as a transient parameter. For example, if a voltage is an input and a current is an output, such a transfer function represents a transient conductance. Additionally, transfer functions allow analyzing the system in the frequency domain hence taking the resonant frequency into account. To use this tool the Laplace transform is applied to the mathematical model (1):
whereis the Laplace variable.
To define the abovementioned functions of the optimization criteria, each component of Equ. (2) should be considered separately.
1) The efficiency function
whereis efficiency that might be expressed as the following
whereloadis the power delivered to the load;inis the power consumed from the input;inis the input impedance.
From the Equ. (3), considering the input voltageinas the input and the load current2as the output, the following transfer function can be derivable:
where
that in the frequency domain is
where
Takingin(j)=|in|ej0, the amplitude-frequency responseA2of the transfer functionW2provides calculating the numerator of Equ. (5):
where
In a similar manner, taking the input voltageinas the input and the transmitting circuit current1as the output, the transfer functionW1provides calculating the denominator of Equ. (5). The course of computation is the following. From Equ. (3), the transfer functionW1in the-domain is
where
and in the frequency domain is
where
Bearing in mind thatin(j)=|in|ej0, the power consumed from the input is
where1is the phase-frequency response of the transfer functionW1. Hence expressing1(j) throughin(j) andW1, and recovering the rectangular coordinates from the polar form, the input power can be rewritten:
Thus, efficiency function Equ. (3) has been expressed only by components of
and so is capable of parameter optimizing.
2) The constraint function determining the amount of transferred power
The assumptions made in the mathematical model Equ. (1) include that the wireless charging system works on a constant active load and the rectifier is ideal consequently, the transferred power is equal to the power delivered to the load, and its amount depends on the load current. Thus, the amplitude-frequency responseA2Equ. (9) can be used as the constraint function2.
The corresponding boundary condition should incorporate the required amount of power under the voltage limit that might be expressed as the following ratio:
where2nis the nominal load current;inmaxis the maximum input voltage.
Thus, the constraint function2as the component of Equ. (2) is
that is expressed only by components of.
3) The constraint functions determining the excess voltage on the capacitors
In the wireless charging system, the reference for the excess voltage on the primary side capacitor and the secondary side capacitor is the input voltage, hence
To express the above constraint functions through the components ofthe following transfer functions are used:
where5=1, that after transforming into the frequency domain produce the following amplitude- frequency responses:
where
are suitable for use as the constraint functions3and4.
The corresponding boundary conditions can be defined as
whereU1maxandU2maxare the maximum per- missible voltages of the primary side capacitor and the secondary side capacitor, ensuring their reliability.
Thus, the constraint functions3and4as the components of Equ. (2) are the following
Defining the functions x1~x4 allows us to analyze them in the frequency domain. Fig.3 shows these functions for the wireless charging system applicable to the electric truck ЕТ-20132 and depicts that the maximum of the efficiency function x1 does not coincide in frequency with either the first or the second maximum of the constraint function x2 determining the amount of transferred power but is located between them. In the frequency range between the maxima of x2, the value of x1 changes up to 0.3% from its maximum. At the same time, the maximum of x1 is close in frequency to the minimum ofx2. Thus, it is reasonable to choose the first maximum ofx2 as the resonant frequency fr of the wireless charging system. Still, the operating frequency fo is worthwhile to set slightly higher because it is the opportunity to achieve the balance where the efficiency is closer to the maximum plus the amount of transferred power is in the range of 70%~90% of the maximum possible value that is enough for operational stability.
The proposed constraint optimization of the wireless charging system concerns only the develop- ment stage and is considered as parameter opti- mization. The algorithm of the optimization technique is shown in Fig.4. To solve the task, the optimization criteria Equ. (2) have been determined in terms of the resonant circuit parameters but the dimension of vectoris too high to reach the direct analytical solution. To circumvent this difficulty all parameters issued as constants are discarded and the rest of the parameters are reduced to one.
The assumptions made in the mathematical model (1) include that the wireless charging system works on a constant active load, henceloadis constant, which value for the batteries of the electric truck ET-20132 is equal to 2.8W. Under the recom- mendation of the standard J2954[31], the resonant frequencyris constant as well and is set to 90 kHz.
Reducing the rest of the parameters to one parameter has the following basis:
(1) The resonant circuit with LC-series compen- sating topology is symmetric, that means1=2=,1=2=, and1=2.
(2) The transmitting and receiving coils are flat and square-shaped, the size of the receiving coil is fixed by technical restrictions, and the distance between the coils is constant. Hence,, andare directly specified by the coils’ size, distance, and winding parameters.
(3) The wireless charging system operates with the given resonant frequency. If,, andare given,is no longer the independent parameter as there is only a specific capacity providing that the resonant frequency has the given value.
In the above conditions according to P. L. Kalantarov and L. A. Zeitlin manual[32]the coils’ inductances are as follows:
where0is the magnetic permeability of the air;is the turn number;andare the lengths of the edges;is the winding width. And the mutual inductance is calculated as
whereis the distance between the coils.
The primary and secondary sides resistances are the coil resistance hence they are calculated as
whereis the cross-section of the coil wire;mis the resistivity of the coil wire.
Analysis of the equations describing,, andshows that the only variable for the given geometry and materials for the coils’ windings is the turn number. The same is true foras the resonant frequency is also given. However, it is difficult to define the analytical expression forbecause the equation describing the resonant frequencyrcorresponding to the mathematical model Equ. (1) has a high dimension. That is why the capacitanceis obtained with numerical methods by a specially written computer program based on Equ. (9) where the resonant frequency has been appointed to the first maximum of the amplitude-frequency responseA2. Tab.1 shows the computational results with the turn number from 1 to 12.
Reducing the parameters of the wireless charging system to the turn numberprovides the constraint optimization as it is, however, this parameter is not used in the mathematical model Equ. (1) and the optimization criteria Equ. (2). Consequently, it is appropriate to set using Equ. (23) the direct link between the turn numberand the coil inductanceand henceforth use the last one as the only variable in the task under consideration. Dependencies of the other parameters on the coil inductance are defined by the functions=(),=(), and 1/=() obtained from Tab.1 data using the least-squares method for Chebyshev polynomial approximation. Fig.5 shows the resulting 3-order polynomials and Tab.2 presents RMS errors for Chebyshev polynomials of order from 1 to 3.
Tab.1 Resonant circuit parameters
Fig.5 The results of parameters approximation with 3-order Chebyshev polynomials
Tab.2 RMS errors of Chebyshev polynomial approximation (%)
Tab.2 gives clear evidence that using 3-order polynomials provides the maximal approximation accuracy as RMS error for all parameters does not exceed 2%, thus in the functions1~4of the optimization criteria (2) it is allowable to use the following:
wherer0~r3,m0~m3,c0~c3are polynomial coefficients given in Tab.3.
Tab.3 Polynomial coefficients
Applying Equ. (26) into Equ. (2), functions1~4possess the coil inductanceas the only variable. Dependencies1()~4() are presented in Fig.6 where the areas outside the boundary conditions are highlighted in gray.
The values of the boundary conditions2min,3max, and4maxare obtained based on the technical characteristics of the wireless charging system for the electric truck ET-20132.
Thus, using the maximum supply voltage of 300 V as the maximum input voltage and the nominal load current of 36 A, the minimal amount of trans- ferred power is
Considering the maximum permissible voltages of the resonant circuit capacitors are equal and have the value of 900 V, the maximum excesses of voltages are
As can be seen from Fig.6b and Fig.6c, the constraint functions3and4do not go beyond the boundaries if the coil inductanceis between 15mH and 34mH. Hence, analysis of the efficiency function1in this range solves the parameter optimization task.
According to Fig.6d, at the range ofproviding2()≥2min,3()≤3max, and4()≤4max, which indicates the optimization criteria (2) fulfillment, the maximum of the efficiency function1corresponds to=22.5mH. It should be noted that this value of the coil inductance is not feasible, as the turn numbermust be an integer. The closest turn number=5 gives the quasi-optimal solution. Thus, the proposed constraint optimization results in the resonant circuit parameters given in Tab.1 for turn numberis 5.
To prove the obtained results experimentally, the wireless charging system for the electric truck ET-20132 has been made. Part of the system equipment has been manufactured including two flat and square-shaped coils with edges of 600 mm× 300 mm length and the turn number of 5, the high-frequency inverter from SMPS MOSFET transistors IRFP90N20DPbF, and the high-voltage bridge rectifier from STPS160H100TV power Schottky diodes in the battery charging circuit. In addition to the above, the system contains metal-film capacitor B32682A1472K000 as the primary and secondary sides capacitors, and also a DC power supply DELTA ELEKTRONIKA SM 330-AR-22, a digital RLC meter MASTECH MS-5308, an OWON SDS7102V digital oscilloscope, a MASTECH MS2109A current clamp, a Sonel CMM-10 multimeter. The complete equipment set included in this wireless charging system is shown in Fig.7a. To conduct experiments the receiving coil has been attached to the frame of ET-20132, as shown in Fig.7b, and connected to the batteries through the rectifier and LC filter. The transmitting coil connected to the inverter has been placed in parallel-alignment with the receiving coil at the distance of 100 mm.
Fig.7 The experimental wireless charging system
As the experimental wireless charging system is not ideal, and foremost the resonant circuit with LC-series compensating topology is not precisely symmetric, the real resonant circuit parameters do not similar to the corresponding ones in Tab.1 for the row for=5. That is why the real parameters of the wireless charging system for the electric truck ET-20132 have been measured before carrying out any experiments. The results are shown in Tab.4 and demonstrate the average deviation of measured parameters from data in Tab.1 of 2% and the resonant circuit asymmetry of 0.86%.
It should also be noted the mathematical model (1) describes only the ohm lossesDohmand does not consider most part of the losses there are in the experimental wireless charging system like switching and conductive losses in the semiconductor switches of the high-frequency inverter and the high-voltage bridge rectifier, the dielectric losses in resonant circuit capacitors, etc. To make the experimental efficiency assessment more consistent, Fig.8 shows the block diagram of the experimental wireless charging system indicating losses being considered in the comparison of the calculation and the experiment.
Fig.8 Block diagram of the experimental wireless charging system indicating losses
The first losses that should be considered in Fig.8 are caused by the skin effectDskin. The skin effect does not affect the coil’s inductance but affects additional ohm losses in the coils that are associated with current displacement in the coil’s wire at high-frequency operation. The value ofDskinmight be supplemented in the mathematical model Equ. (1) by the increase in1and2. This increase has been measured with the digital RLC meter and at the resonant frequency, it is equal to 0.16W. Thus, Fig.9 shows1~4in the frequency domain calculated for the pure set of parameters from Tab.4 (ideal model) and for the increase in resistance (model considering skin effect).
The experiments with the wireless charging system implied the measurement of currents and voltages. At the inverter input the sensors imple- mented at the DC power supply are used and the current clamp along with the multimeter is used at the battery pack. At the resonant circuit capacitors, the digital oscilloscope is used where the built-in soft- ware makes pre-processing. All the data is transmitted to the PC where it is post-processed including the efficiency determination. Together with the calcu- lation, Fig.9 shows the experimental results of the wireless charging system for the electric truck ЕТ-20132. Additionally, for the efficiency(the efficiency functions1) the losses-correction has been made. It includes supplementing of the following losses:Dtransin the transistors at the high-frequency inverter;Ddiodesin the diodes at the high-voltage bridge rectifier;Dctrl1andDctrl2in control schemes at the transmitting and receiving side that are equal to 4 W and 2 W consequently. The value ofDtransis assessed as squared current1multiplied by the on-state resistance of two simultaneously opened transistors which is 0.023Wfor each. The value ofDdiodesis twice for current2multiplied by 0.68 V of voltage drop for two simultaneously opened diodes.
Fig.9 Components of the optimization criteria x1~x4 in the frequency domain: ideal model (solid lines); model considering skin effect (dashed lines); experiment (dot-labeled lines); losses-corrected experiment (cross-labeled lines)
As can be seen in Fig.9, the proposed constraint optimization rather well provides the resonant frequency. Thus, at the start (input block at Fig.4), the resonant frequency is set to 90 kHz, and at the finish, the experimental wireless charging system hasr=91.3 kHz. This slight change in the resonant frequency is caused by the parameter deviations and the resonant circuit asymmetry that demonstrates in Tab.4.
The comparison of the calculation and the experiment is reasonable to make using not the ideal model but the model considering the skin effect. Such comparison shows good convergence at the resonant frequency. The deviations of the experiment from the calculation exteriorly the resonant frequency (the approximate frequency range less than 88 kHz and more than 96 kHz) that reveal primarily at the efficiency(the efficiency functions1) are caused by the assumptions used in the mathematical model Equ. (1) such as the non-linearity of the experimental setup, firstly at the rectifier diodes and the anti-eddy batteries.
The smallest average difference is seen forU1andU2(the constraint functions3and4), but these experimental values are mostly higher than even for the ideal model which might be caused by the additional capacitance of the real wireless charging system associated with the measuring instrument.
The experimental load current2(the constraint function2) is convergent with the model considering the skin effect either at the resonant frequencyr=91.3 kHz and at the frequency range up to 92.5 kHz where2does not drop below 90% of its maximum and consequently where the operating frequencyomight be. That means all the required amount of power will be transferred at any normal operating conditions.
The efficiency(the efficiency functions1), obtained directly through the experiment is the efficiency of whole the wireless charging system including auxiliaries. It has the maximum value of 82.9% at the frequency 92.3 kHz. But in the majority of cases of current high-power systems[4], the declared efficiency refers only to inductive power transfer, hence the comparable efficiency is obtained after losses-correction. The losses-corrected efficiency has the maximum value of 94.8% at 98.1 kHz which is too far from the resonant frequency. Considering the frequency range from 91.3 kHz up to 92.5 kHz, the average losses-corrected efficiency is 91%. In ideal conditions where the skin effect in the coil’s wire is completely suppressed, the maximum efficiencyat the permissible operating frequencyohas the value of 99.2%.
All of the above confirms that the wireless charging system normally operates at the frequency range from 91.3 kHz up to 92.5 kHz, hence the assumptions made and caused by them the difference between the calculation and the experiment do not cast doubt on the validity of the mathematical model Equ. (1) for practical use. Consequently, the proposed constraint optimization functions properly in the described conditions.
The presented constrained efficiency optimi- zation is appropriate for the wireless charging system with LC-series compensating topology where the transmitting and receiving coils are flat and square-shaped, the size of the receiving coil is fixed by technical restrictions, and the distance between the coils is constant. Being used at the development stage for the given resonant frequency it provides the maximum efficiency within the amount of transferred power above the required value under the input voltage limit and within the excess voltage on the resonant circuit capacitors less than permissible values. The advantage of the proposed optimization technique is maximizing the system efficiency in the given circumstances without the need to use complex three-dimensional models. The disadvantage is that, due to the assumptions made in the mathematical model, if the parameters of the LC-series com- pensating topology circuit of the real wireless charging system deviate from the theoretically obtained, a shift in the resonant frequency may occur.
For the wireless charging system of the electric truck ET-20132 equipped with flat and square-shaped coils with edges of 600 mm×300 mm length and operating at the frequency range from 91.3 kHz up to 92.5 kHz, the theoretically possible efficiency is 99.2%. Considering the losses in semiconductor switches, the losses in rectifier diodes, and the losses to auxiliaries, the experimentally proven efficiency of the wireless charging system is 91%, which is good enough for this type of device in comparison with current high-power systems.

开发基于感应功率传输的无线充电系统是一个很有前途的研究领域。本研究的目的在于,在给定谐振频率和给定发射线圈和接收线圈之间距离的情况下,优化具有LC串联补偿拓扑结构的无线充电系统的约束效率。这些约束反映了线圈的尺寸限制、输入电压限制下所需的传输功率,以及部件上的过电压。为了达到目标,制定了优化标准。已经为频域中优化标准的每个组件建立了对无线充电系统谐振电路参数的依赖性。由于这些依赖关系看起来非常复杂,在给定的情况下利用参数之间的联系,并采用最小二乘法的切比雪夫多项式近似,它们在优化任务中被简化为一个变量。因此,理论上已经获得了指示优化标准满足的谐振电路参数。利用为电动卡车ET-20132专门制造的无线充电系统对所提出的约束效率优化方法进行了实验验证。实验和理论的比较表明,它们在谐振频率上具有良好的收敛性,由数学模型中的假设引起的谐振频率偏差是可接受的。经实验证明,无线充电系统的效率为91%。
