Inductive Power Transfer – Impact on E-Mobility and Industrial Production-Video

Abstract: Electromobility in combination with renewable energy sources is a very promising alternative to maintain the mobility of people and goods while reducing emissions and conserving the resources of our planet. In this context, using wireless power transfer, in particular for near field applications (inductive power transfer), is a key technology. Inductive power transfer is expected to have a significant impact on the future mobility. This will not be limited to charging methods. After recapping the physical principles and mathematical-technical relationships for inductive power transfer, we will focus in our presentation on the inductive charging of electrical vehicles both while driving and parking (MobiLab Project). Furthermore, we will discuss the influence of inductive power transfer on the power train by introducing novel concepts for an e-motor and a low voltage battery system. We will conclude our presentation, by introducing the current standards of inductive energy transfer for electric vehicles.
