Detachable transformers used in contactless battery chargers have poor power transfer characteristics because they have low coupling coefficients due to their gaps. The ㄷㅓ type core gives a high coupling coefficient in a contactless battery charger compared with standard cores such as EE, EC and UU. In this paper, characteristics of the ㄷㅓ type core is studied. Detailed analyses and comparisons are given based on the sinusoidal operation and square-wave operation. Reductions in output current, voltage and power are stated analytically and numerically. The analyses are verified by experiments conducted on a ZVS converter including a detachable transformer. The analyses and comparison method can be applied to other gaped transformer such as a PCB transformer.

The LLC series resonant converter with a LLT (Inductor-Inductor-Transformer) transformer for PDP power supply is presented. LLT transformer used to combine the inductor and transformer into one unit has the increased leakage inductance in the primary and secondary due to the winding method and the use of the gaped core. The increased leakage inductance in the primary and secondary of LLT transformer can be impacted on the DC voltage gain characteristics of LLC series resonant converter. In this paper, DC gain characteristics and the experimental results of the LLC series resonant converter with a LLT transformer are verified on the Math-CAD simulation based on the theoretical analysis and the 600W experimental prototype.

Recently, the study for development of system having affinity for environment is on investigation. This issue is also applicable to transportation system. This paper suggested the inductive power transformer used for the road/railway applied to contactless power transfer system. The two secondary windings, large gaped magnetic structure and horizontal alignment between primary and secondary coil for that transformer approach a process for improvement of contactless power transfer system performance.
