Computer Model for Railway Inductive Power Supply Using Valtchev Model

초록

This paper presents contactless power supply systems using Valtchev model in transportation systems. The major drawback of contactless systems is that the efficiency is lower than that of contact systems. The coupling coefficient of the contactless transformer is the most influent parameter on the system efficiency. Here, a new computer model for the contactless transfer system developed in the Korea Railroad Research Institute is present. Also, simulations of the old model and the new model are compared with the prototype measurement to assure the model validity.
