Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wireless charging efficiency calculation and evaluation, and specifically to a method and system for calculating the inter-coil transmission efficiency of a wireless charging coupling mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Due to the increasing severity of environmental problems and the energy crisis, electric vehicles are gaining popularity. The rapid development and widespread application of electric vehicles globally are accelerating the commercial application of Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) technology in wireless charging. Wireless charging offers high reliability, safety, and convenience, making it particularly suitable for future autonomous driving technologies.

[0003] Magnetic coupling WPT (MC-WPT), or inductive power transfer (IPT), transmits power through a magnetic field, offering a combination of high power, high efficiency, and long distance. This method is currently the most popular and widely used WPT technology, especially suitable for wireless charging of electric vehicles.

[0004] Car wireless charging system such as Figure 1 As shown, it is mainly divided into a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter consists of a power supply, an inverter, a compensation network, and a transmitting coil; the receiver consists of a receiving coil, a compensation network, an inverter, and a load. The transmitting coil, receiving coil, ferrite, and aluminum plate constitute the wireless charging coupling mechanism.

[0005] System transmission efficiency is a crucial metric for wireless charging systems. It is influenced by numerous factors, among which the inter-coil transmission efficiency of the coupling mechanism is paramount. η It can be calculated from equation (1):

[0006] (1);

[0007] In the formula, k The coupling coefficient is the coupling factor of the coupling mechanism. Q 1 represents the transmitter quality factor. Q 2 represents the receiver quality factor. Of the parameters mentioned above, k The quality factor can be obtained from finite element simulation of the coupling mechanism. Q 1 and Q The simulation calculation for 2 is quite difficult.

[0008] It can be seen that the quality factor Q The calculation of the efficiency is the basis for determining the transmission efficiency between the coils of the coupling mechanism, and it is also an important prerequisite for evaluating the efficiency of the entire wireless charging system. In the series resonant circuit, the parameter definition of the quality factor of the series circuit is as follows: The ratio of the characteristic impedance of the resonant circuit to the circuit resistance is called the quality factor of the circuit, as shown in equation (2):

[0009] (2);

[0010] In the formula, the angular frequency ω = 2π f , f (Hz) represents frequency; L (H) represents inductance; R (Ω) represents the equivalent resistance of the coil.

[0011] In the coupling mechanism, the angular frequency ω and the coil inductance L The equivalent resistance of the coil is known, but calculating it is difficult. (Equivalent resistance of the coil) R It consists of 3 parts: a) the DC resistance of the coil R dc Coil proximity effect loss equivalent resistance R j Coil skin effect loss equivalent resistance R f b) Ferrite loss R C c) Eddy current loss of aluminum shielding plate R e.

[0012] Due to the complex structure of the coupling mechanism and the strong nonlinearity of ferrite losses, it is very difficult to accurately calculate the equivalent resistance of each part. Ultimately, the equivalent resistance of the entire coupling mechanism system cannot be calculated using the definition method of equation (2).

[0013] Previous literature has employed two methods for calculating the Q factor of the coupling mechanism: a) ignoring the influence of ferrite, i.e., not adding ferrite in the experiment; b) adding ferrite in the experiment, but only providing the trend of Q change, ignoring or avoiding the specific calculation of Q. The accuracy of the system transmission efficiency obtained using these methods for wireless charging systems is poor. Therefore, a method is urgently needed to effectively calculate the quality factor of the coupling mechanism, providing assurance for evaluating the efficiency of wireless charging systems. Summary of the Invention

[0036] Furthermore, the loss of the aluminum shielding plate is calculated using the following formula:

[0054] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a simulation model of a wireless charging coupling mechanism;

[0055] Figure 3 A schematic diagram confirming the simulation model of the wireless charging coupling mechanism;

[0056] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the steps of a method for calculating the inter-coil transmission efficiency of a wireless charging coupling mechanism in an embodiment.

[0057] Figure 5 This is an internal structural diagram of a computer device in one embodiment. Detailed Implementation

[0058] As described in the background section, the commonly used definitional method for calculating the quality factor is not suitable for systems with complex equivalent impedances, such as wireless charging coupling mechanisms. The definitional method, a common approach for calculating Q, is only applicable to systems with constant or linearly changing equivalent resistance. Wireless charging coupling systems contain ferrites, which exhibit characteristics such as magnetic saturation and hysteresis loss. The equivalent resistance of ferrites is non-linear and difficult to express using a fixed analytical formula. Ultimately, this means the equivalent resistance of the entire coupling mechanism system cannot be calculated using the definitional method.

[0059] In view of this, see Figure 4 This invention provides a method for calculating the inter-coil transmission efficiency of a wireless charging coupling mechanism, comprising the following steps:

[0060] Step 1: Simulate and model the wireless charging coupling mechanism. The components included in the simulation model of the coupling mechanism are: coils, ferrite cores and aluminum shielding plates of the transmitter and receiver.

[0061] Step 2: Obtain the device parameters of the coupling mechanism simulation model;

[0062] Step 3: Based on the obtained device parameters, calculate the quality factor of the transmitter and receiver from the energy of the wireless charging resonant circuit. The quality factor is calculated using the following formula:

[0063] ;

[0064] in, For frequency;

[0065] Step 4: Calculate the inter-coil transmission efficiency based on the quality factor. The inter-coil transmission efficiency is used to measure the efficiency of the wireless charging system.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 1, a simulation model of the wireless charging coupling mechanism is performed. Based on the actual structure, a finite element simulation model of the coupling mechanism is established after reasonable simplification. (See...) Figure 2 , Figure 3 The simulation model of the coupling mechanism includes the following components: transmitting coil 101, receiving coil 201, ferrite core 102, 202 and aluminum shielding plate 103, 203 at the transmitting and receiving ends, and a given coil current value.

[0067] In step 2, the device parameters of the coupling mechanism simulation model are obtained, including the electric field strength, current flux density, coil volume, magnetic field strength, magnetic flux density, current density, loss coefficient of the ferrite material, magnetic flux density amplitude of the iron core, field strength on the aluminum shield, current density on the aluminum shield, and volume of the aluminum shield. These device parameters can be directly read after the simulation is completed. The method of this invention is based on the finite element method, so these physical quantities of the coupling mechanism can be easily obtained in any finite element software capable of electromagnetic simulation.

[0068] In step 3, based on the obtained device parameters, the quality factors of the transmitter and receiver are calculated from the energy of the wireless charging resonant circuit. The quality factor is calculated using the following formula:

[0069] ;

[0070] When two resonant circuits with the same vibration frequency are placed together, and one circuit begins to oscillate when energized, the other circuit will also oscillate, automatically generating current, and electrical energy is thus transferred from a distance. This phenomenon is called magnetic resonance and is used in wireless charging.

[0071] The energy storage of a wireless charging resonant circuit includes both electrical and magnetic energy stored in the coil. Therefore, the calculation of the maximum energy storage of the wireless charging resonant circuit is divided into two parts.

[0072] Firstly, the electrical energy stored in the coil is calculated using the following formula:

[0073] ;

[0074] In the formula, Re means taking the real part of the complex number. E Here, * represents the electric field strength, and * represents the complex conjugate matrix. D Let d be the electric flux density, and d be the differential sign. V This represents the volume of the coil.

[0075] Secondly, the magnetic energy stored in the coil is calculated using the following formula:

[0076] ;

[0077] In the formula, Re means taking the real part of the complex number. H ρ represents the magnetic field strength, and * represents the complex conjugate matrix. B Let d be the magnetic flux density and d be the differential sign. V This represents the volume of the coil.

[0078] In this embodiment, when calculating the quality factor, the losses of the wireless charging resonant circuit considered in one cycle include coil losses, core losses, and aluminum shielding plate losses.

[0079] The coupling mechanism uses Litz wire, so skin effect losses can be ignored. Choosing Litz wire allows for an electric field distribution that considers proximity effects. The DC loss and proximity effect loss of the coil can then be calculated using the following formula:

[0080] ;

[0081] In the formula, Re means taking the real part of the complex number. E Here, * represents the electric field strength, and * represents the complex conjugate matrix. J For current density, V This represents the volume of the coil.

[0082] Core loss is calculated using the following formula:

[0083] ;

[0084] In the formula, C m x and y are loss coefficients, determined by the properties of the ferrite material. f For frequency, B m denoted as the magnetic flux density amplitude, and n represents the number of grids into which the core is divided using the finite element method.

[0085] The loss of the aluminum shielding plate is calculated using the following formula:

[0086] ;

[0087] In the formula, Re means taking the real part of the complex number, and E Al The electric field strength on the aluminum shielding plate, * is the complex conjugate matrix, J AL This represents the current density on the aluminum shielding plate. V AL This refers to the volume of the aluminum shielding plate.

[0088] Quality factor calculation: The magnetic energy and electrical energy stored in the coil, coil losses, core losses, and aluminum shielding losses are incorporated into the calculation of the quality factor Q.

[0089] ;

[0090] In the formula for Q, the numerator is energy in J, and the denominator is the calculated loss in W (watts). W = Pt (energy = loss * time = loss / unit time = loss * frequency), that is, W = P / f.

[0091] Thus, the quality factor of the coupling mechanism is obtained. Q Calculation formulas are used to calculate the transmitter quality factor. Q 1 and receiver quality factor Q 2.

[0092] Step 4: Calculate the inter-coil transmission efficiency based on the quality factor. The inter-coil transmission efficiency is used to measure the efficiency of the wireless charging system. η The following calculations were performed:

[0093] ;

[0094] In the formula, k The coupling coefficient is the coupling factor of the coupling mechanism. Q 1 represents the quality factor of the transmitter. Q 2 represents the quality factor at the receiver, and the quality factor at the transmitter is... Q 1 and receiver quality factor Q Substituting the values ​​into the formula, the transmission efficiency between coils can be calculated. η Inter-coil transmission efficiency η The inter-coil transmission efficiency (η) is a crucial metric for calculating the system transmission efficiency of a wireless charging system. By obtaining the accurate η, the overall efficiency of the wireless charging system can be accurately determined, helping to reconstruct the true state of power transmission and providing a theoretical basis for the design and manufacturing of wireless charging systems. It also helps to accurately assess the mutual interference between the wireless charging system and the power grid. The accurate inter-coil transmission efficiency provides valuable reference and theoretical guidance for optimizing system parameters in wireless charging coupling mechanisms and improving system transmission performance, thus further promoting the development of wireless power transfer technology.

[0095] The efficiency formula for the entire wireless transmission system can be defined as: , For the efficiency of each component in the system, it can be seen that when When the efficiency remains constant, design a larger inter-coil transmission efficiency. This can improve the overall system transmission efficiency. (Transmission efficiency between coils) It is one of the important evaluation indicators of wireless charging systems. The larger the value, the higher the energy transmission efficiency and the better the product performance.

[0096] Furthermore, a larger quality factor Q and inter-coil transmission efficiency Design is the prerequisite and foundation for the high-efficiency design of the entire wireless charging system. Using the method for calculating the inter-coil transmission efficiency of the wireless charging coupling mechanism of this invention, the quality factor Q and the inter-coil transmission efficiency can be calculated. In the early stages of designing the transmitter and receiver of a wireless charging coupling mechanism, Q can serve as a key indicator for evaluating the rationality of the design. For example, setting Q=500 as the design threshold, a transmitter-receiver design with Q≥500 is considered reasonable; otherwise, it is considered unreasonable.

[0097] Applying the method proposed in this invention to Figure 2The wireless charging coupling mechanism shown in the figure has coil energy storage and loss calculated through simulation, as shown in Table 1.

[0098] Table 1 shows the coil energy storage and losses calculated using the method of this invention.

[0099]

[0100] Since the Q value of any coupling mechanism is affected by various factors, the Q value of the same model coupling mechanism is not unique and will fluctuate within a certain range. Table 1 shows the fluctuation range of the actual measured Q values. Values ​​calculated using the method of this invention that fall within this range can be considered correct and reliable. This is indeed how it is done in the actual product design stage and has important reference value.
