Abstract

In this paper, Non-contact power supply(NCPS) with the long primary cable longer than 20m and the large air-gap between the primary and secondary of Non-Contacting Transformer(NCT) is presented. The NCT has a large leakage inductance bigger than its magnetizing inductance because it has low coupling, and it is not efficient for NCPS to transfer the primary energy to the secondary one. In order to improve this problem, the voltage-gain characteristics of the series resonant converter, the parallel resonant converter, and the series-parallel resonant converter are analyzed respectively. In addition, the experimental results of 10kW prototype the series-parallel resonant converter is presented.

본 논문에서는 1차 측이 20m이상의 긴 트랙케이블(Track Cable)로 2차 측은 큰 에어 갭(Air-gap)을 갖는 픽업코일(Pick-up Coil)로 구성되어 있는 비접촉 전원에 대해서 서술하였다. 이러한 비접촉 전원은 1차 측 누설 인덕턴스가 자화 인덕턴스보다 크기 때문에 커플링이 좋지 않아 1차 측의 에너지를 2차 측으로 효율적으로 전달 할 수 없다. 이와 같은 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 직렬공진 컨버터, 병렬공진 컨버터 그리고 직ㆍ병렬공진 컨버터(SPRC)의 주 회로를 해석하였고, 각 회로에 대한 전압이득 특성을 비교 검토하였다. 그리고 10kW 직ㆍ병렬공진 컨버터(SPRC)에 대한 실험결과를 서술했다.
