Abstract
Wireless power transfer (WPT) is an emerging technology with widespread applications. It can be used for charging in multiple applications, such as wireless charging for electric vehicles (EVs), which has become a major point of interest. Conventionally, it is used for stationary charging, but also dynamic systems emerge. Key drawbacks of standard WPT systems are the limited transfer distance between the copper coils and the transfer efficiency. By employing high-temperature superconductors (HTS) as coil material these limitations can be alleviated. However, HTS coils have an interesting ac loss characteristic which will be studied. This study investigates the transport current and magnetisation loss of HTS coils in the frequency relevant to WPT for EVs. In addition, a comparison between the full anisotropic dependency of the critical current and only considering perpendicular field components is conducted. A homogenous 2D axisymmetric coil model is used to examine three of the most employed coil configurations and their loss characteristics depending on turn numbers.
