 Abstract   Inductive energy transmission through a large air gap is becoming more and more attractive especially for automatic battery charging stations and for energy supply of inductively powered electric vehicles and other movable consumers. The paper investigates the influence of geometrical and electrical parameters on energy transmission through air gaps of several hundred millimetres. The investigations are carried out by means of magnetic flux simulation and measurements. In particular the dimensions of the primary and secondary system, the existence of ferrite cores on the primary or secondary side and the air gap length determine the transmission behaviour. The transferable electric power and the efficiency of magnetic assemblies with large air gaps can be considerably improved by using higher transmission frequencies in the range of approximately 100 kHz. An experimental arrangement transfers an electric power of 1 kW through an air gap of 300 mm. At a 100 kHz transmission frequency the overall efficiency, including all power electronic components, is greater than 80 %.
