Fuel Cell Based Inductive Power Transfer System for Supercapacitors Constant Current Charging

Abstract

Vehicle charging is one of the most discussed topics in the automotive field. Among different technologies, wireless charging systems are becoming a burning issue because of their potentialities related to the advantages introduced in terms of safety and facilities for the final user. In this paper, a focus on the Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) systems is made. In particular, a fuel cell (FC) based one is presented with the aim of supercapacitors (SCs) charging for green transportation applications.
