Overview

What is WPT?

The transmission of energy from one place to another without using wires

Conventional energy transfer is using wires

But, the wireless transmission is made possible by using various technologies

As per studies, most electrical energy transfer is through wires.

Most of the energy loss is during transmission• On an average, more than 30%• In India, it exceeds 40%

Why Not Wires?

ReliableEfficientFast Low maintenance costCan be used for short-range or

long-range.

Why WPT?

Nikola Tesla in late 1890s His vision for “World Wireless System” The 187 feet tall tower to broadcast energy All people can have access to free energy Shortage of fund lead to nonoperation He used to lamp 200 lights from 40 km distance

Types and Technologies of WPT

The transfer of energy Magnetic coupling Inductive coupling

Simplest Wireless Energy coupling is a transformer

Energy Coupling

Primary and secondary coils are not connected with wires.

Energy transfer is due to Mutual Induction Wireless Charging Pad(WCP) ,Electric

Brushes are some examples.

Inductive coupling

The capacitor and inductor forms the resonator. Charge oscillates between inductor (as magnetic field) and capacitor (as electric field.) This type of oscillation is called

resonance if the reactance's of the inductor and capacitor are equal.

Resonance Inductive Coupling(RIC)

Coil provides the inductance Capacitor is connected parallel to the coil Energy will be shifting back and

forth between magnetic field surrounding the coil and electricfield around the capacitor.

Radiation loss will be negligible

How resonance in RIC?

An example

Toughest technique under near-field energy transfer techniques

Air ionizes only when there is a high field Needed field is 2.11MV/m Natural example: Lightening Not feasible for practical implementation

Air Ionization

Advantages: No wire, No e-waste Need for battery eliminated Efficient & Harmless Disadvantages: Distance constraint Field should be under safety level High initial cost Tuning is difficult in RIC

Advantages & Disadvantages of near-field techniques

Transfers high power from one place to another. Two places being in line of sight usually

Steps: Electrical energy to microwave energy Capturing microwaves using rectenna Microwave energy to electrical energy

AC is converted to DC first DC is converted to microwaves using magnetron

Microwave Power Transfer(MPT)

Transmitted waves are received at rectenna which rectifies, gives DC as the output DC is converted back to AC Rectenna: Stands for rectifying antenna Consists of mesh of dipoles and diodes Converts microwave to its DC equivalent Usually multi-element phased array

MPT(Continued….)

LASER is highly directional, coherent Not dispersed for very long But, gets attenuated when it

propagates through atmosphere Simple receiver

Photovoltaic cell Cost-efficient

LASER transmission

To provide energy to earth’s increasing energy need

To efficiently make use of renewable energy i.e., solar energy

SPS are placed in geostationary orbits

Each SPS may have 400 million photocells

Efficiency exceeds 95% if microwave is used.

Solar Power Satellites (SPS)

Advantages & Disadvantages of Far Field Technology

Advantages: Efficient , Easy Need for grid eliminated Low maintenance cost More effective when the

transmitting and receiving points are along a line-of-sight

Can reach the places which are remote

Disadvantages: Radiate When LASERs are

used, conversion is

inefficient Absorption loss is

high When microwaves

are used, interference may

arise

Qi(Chee) is a interface standard

Developed by Wireless Power Consortium

It works for a distance up to 40mm(1.6inches)

Comprises a transmission pad & a compatible receiver

The Qi Standard

Near-field energy transfer Electric automobile charging

Static and moving Consumer electronics Industrial purposes

Harsh environment

Applications

Far-field energy transferSolar Power SatellitesEnergy to remote areasCan broadcast energy globally (in future)

Applications(Continued…..)

Based on RIC , Led by MIT’s Marin Soljačić

Energy transfer wirelessly for a distance just more than 2m.

Coils were in helical shape No capacitor was used Efficiency achieved was around

40% Used frequencies are 1MHz

&10MHz Intel is working on it

Wireless Electricity(WiTricity)

Transmission without wires- a reality Efficient Low maintenance cost. But, high initial

cost Better than conventional wired

transfer Energy crisis can be decreased Low loss In near future, world will be

completely wireless
