Power transfer by IPT questions

AI Thread Summary
The user is attempting to charge a AA battery using a circuit designed for inductive power transfer (IPT) but is not getting any output readings. They suspect an issue with their circuit design and are seeking help with modeling coupled inductors in PSpice for simulation purposes. A response suggests checking the Multisim simulation settings to ensure it recognizes the voltage induction in the secondary circuit. Additionally, it recommends using transformer models instead of inductors, adjusting for the correct turns ratio based on the chosen inductances. Proper modeling and simulation adjustments are crucial for achieving the desired charging results.

I am using this circuit below to charge a AA battery at the receiver's output. i think it should at least have some readings but i was wrong. there was no results at all. is there something wrong in my design. I've took the basic circuit only(hadnt add the control devices).
PS I am a noob at pspice, can any1 show me how to model the coupled inductors as IPT in the simulation?
Thanks!

At first glance, it appears your Multisim simulation doesn't know that you're trying to induce a voltage into the secondary circuit.
The first obvious place I would double check, is your Multisim program, to see if they have models for transformers, and replace your two inductors with it. Use a turns-ratio appropriate for the 2 inductances you've chosen.
 

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
