Description
Summary:The electrical conductivity and dielectric constant of seawater are quite different from those of air, so it is necessary to explore the differences between wireless power transmission characteristics in the air and seawater. The equivalent circuit model of the magnetic coupling mechanism is of great significance to the analysis of the transmission characteristics. In this article, a more accurate model analyzing the wireless power transmission in seawater environment is proposed, in which all parameters of the model can be obtained by specific expressions. First, by establishing the electromagnetic field analysis model in the seawater environment, the distribution laws of underwater electric field intensity and magnetic induction intensity are obtained. Then, the equivalent self- and mutual resistances of eddy current loss are introduced based on electromagnetic field model, and the analytical solutions of them are given. The lumped parameter equivalent circuit model of the underwater magnetic coupling mechanism is further derived, and the influencing factors of eddy current loss equivalent resistances are explored, which can provide theoretical guidance for multi-objective system optimization. Finally, an underwater platform was built to verify the accuracy of the equivalent circuit model.
