An Inductively Coupled Power Transfer system (ICPT) of 5 kW that allows an air gap of 20 cm has been studied and developed. The mechanical scheme is shown in Fig. 1. The study has been focused in analyzing the influence of the frequency deviation with respect to the resonant frequency. This study has been carried out as a part in the development of a supply system for electric vehicles both with still and moving secondary. This paper shows the analysis process followed, the practice process carried out to build the prototype and the conclusions of the work.
