Abstract

An analytical estimation of driving range of electric vehicles (EVs) with contactless on-road charging system is presented in this paper. Inductive power transfer (IPT) systems with different configurations (static, dynamic), power levels and road coverage have different (and non-linear) impact on the driving range. A generic methodology has been developed to estimate the driving range of any EV by defining a set of formulae linearly dependant on vehicle mass, frontal area, IPT system configuration, power level and road coverage area. Driving cycle constants are defined to take into account the variation in the consumption pattern of the EV with the velocity profile.
