Optimization of Inductive Charging Systems for Electric Vehicles with Vehicle-to-Grid Capability
The objective of this project is the development of a highly efficient inductive charging systems with the focus on Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) applications. The optimization is done in theory, simulation as well as experimental analysis and will comprise the following components: resonant compensation topologies, power electronics topologies, power semiconductor components and materials, magnetic coupler geometry and design. [read more]To verify the results experimentally a 5 kW prototype is build up in the laboratory. Furthermore the charging system will be installed in an electric vehicle making it possible to perform realistic tests in different charging positions.
