Hi all,
Just joined the forum.
I am currently trying to design a simple circuit and demonstrate the wireless power transfer of electric vehicles on an RC car. I am a mechanical engineering student and my electrical knowledge is limited, so any tips will be appreciated.
So, the idea is to demonstrate the wireless charging technology using primary and secondary coils to charge the Li-ion battery which is connected to the RC car.
Parts i need? : AC Power supply (230V-Wall plug) =>Transformer => Primary coil => Secondary Coil => Rectifier (AC to DC) => Battery (Li-ion-RC car)
Questions: 1) what extra parts will i need ? i was thinking to take the charger from the RC car, open it and see whats inside and then connect them up.
2) Do i have to use a rectifier after the AC supply to convert to DC and then again to AC before the primary coil ? or leave it AC and convert it to DC before the battery ?
I dont know if i am completely wrong but anyone who have done this please leave me a comment
Thank you
