WIRELESS POWER

 TRANSMISSION OF ENERGY THROUGH THE AIR

 PROCESS OF TRANSFERRING ELECTRIC ENERGY OR
POWER DISTANCE WITHOUT WIRES.
 ALSO KNOWN AS “WITRICITY” AND “WIRELESS POWER
TRANSMISSION”.
 POWER SOURCE (TRANSMITTER) PROVIDES POWER TO
THE DEVICES WHERE AS CAPTURE DEVICE(RECIEVER)
CAPTURES IT.
WHY NOT WIRES ?

 AS PER STUDIES, MOST ELECTRICAL ENERGY TRANSFER

THROUGH WIRES.
 MOST OF THE ENERGY LOSS IS DURING TRANSMISSION
1. ON AN AVERAGE, MORE THAN 30 %
2. ACCORDING TO WORLD RESOURCES INSTITUTE(WRI), IN
INDIA, IT EXCEEDS 40%.
WHY WPT ?

 RELIABLE
 EFFICIENT
 FAST
 LOW MAINTENANCE COST
 CAN BE USED FOR SHORT-RANGE OR LONG-RANGE.
HISTORY OF WPT

 IN 1899, SIR NIKOLA TESLA FIRST PROPOSED A METHOD

OF WIRELESS POWER TRANSMISSION.
 IN 1961, WILLIAM C. BROWN PUBLISHES AN ARTICLE
EXPLORING POSSIBILITIES OF MICROWAVE POWER
TRANSMISSION.
 THE IDEA OF TESLA IS TAKEN INTO RESEARCH AFTER 100
YEARS BY A TEAM LEAD BY MARIN SOLIJACIC FROM MIT.
THE PROJECT IS NAMED AS WITRICITY
 IN 2009, SONY SHOWS A WIRELESS ELECTRODYNAMICS-
INDUCTION POWER TV, 60W OVER 50 CM.
TYPES AND TECHNOLOGIES OF
WPT
INDUCTIVE COUPLING

 PRIMARY AND SECONDARY COILS ARE NOT CONNECTED

WITH WIRES.
 ENERGY TRANSFER IS DUE TO MUTUAL INDUCTION
TRANSMITTING CIRCUIT

RECEIVING CIRCUIT
APPLICATIONS
 NEAR-FIELD ENERGY TRANSFER
 ELECTRIC AUTOMOBILE CHARGING
 CHARGING BATTERY OF INSULIN PUMPS AND CARDIAC
PACEMAKER
 WIRELESS MOBILE CHARGER

 FAR-FIELD ENERGY TRANSFER

 SOLAR POWER SATELLITES
 ENERGY TO REMOTE AREAS
 CAN BROADCAST ENERGY GLOBALLY ( IN FUTURE ).
ADAVANTAGES AND
DISADVANTAGES
Advantages
 SAFE, FAIRLY, EFFICIENT, GOOD RANGE.
 MORE SECURE, NO RISK OF GETTING SHOCKED.
 MAINTENENANCE COST WILL BE SAVED.
 NEED FOR BATTERY IS ELIMINATED.

Disadvantages
 WIRELESS POWER TRANSMISSION CAN BE POSSIBLE ONLY
IN FEW METERS.
 EFFICIENCY IS ONLY ABOUT 40%.
 POSSIBILITY OF “ENERGY THEFT”.
IS WiTRICITY SECURE ?

 HUMAN BEINGS OR OTHER OBJECTS PLACED BETWEEN

THE TRANSMITTER AND RECIEVER DO NOT HINDER THE
TRANSMISSION OF POWER.
 MAGNETIC FIELDS END TO INTERACT VERY WEAKLY WITH
THE BIOLOGICAL TISSUES OF THE BODY, AND SO ARE NOT
PRONE TO CAUSE ANY DAMAGE TO ANY LIVING BEINGS.
CONCLUSION

 WE WERE ABLE TO FULFILL THE AIM OF THE PROJECT OF

TRANSMITTING THE ENERGY WIRELESSLY UP TO A
DISTANCE OF 3.5cm.
 THINK THAT THE CITY WILL BE COVERED WITH WPT
HOT-SPOTS, JUST LIKE WIRELESS INTERNET, THERE WILL
BE NO NEED OF CHARGING BATTERIES, OR CARRYING
ADAPTERS ALL AROUND !
