Tests conducted to date at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) indicate that wireless charging of the Chattanooga Area Regional Transportation Authority's (CARTA) downtown shuttle bus, currently operating with off-board battery charging technology, offers significant improvements in performance and cost. The system operates at a frequency of 20 kHz and a peak power of 60 kW. Because the system's wireless charging is expected to occur during a nominal 3-min charging period with passengers on-board, the magnetic and electric fields associated with charging were characterised at UTC's Advanced Vehicle Test Facility and compared with established human exposure limits. The two most prominent exposure limits are those published by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and the Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). Both organisations include limits for groups who are trained (workers in specific industries) to be aware of electromagnetic environments and their potential hazards, as well as a lower set of limits for the general public, who are assumed to lack such awareness. None of the magnetic or electric fields measured either within or outside the bus during charging exceeded either the ICNIRP or the IEEE exposure limits for the general public.
田纳西大学查塔努加分校(UTC)迄今为止进行的测试表明,查塔努加地区区域运输管理局(CARTA)的市中心穿梭巴士目前采用车外电池充电技术,其无线充电在性能和成本方面有显著提升。该系统工作频率为20千赫,峰值功率为60千瓦。由于预计该系统的无线充电将在乘客上车的标称3分钟充电期内进行,因此在UTC的先进车辆测试设施中对充电相关的磁场和电场进行了表征,并与既定的人体暴露限值进行了比较。两个最突出的暴露限值是由国际非电离辐射防护委员会(ICNIRP)和电气与电子工程师协会(IEEE)发布的。这两个组织都包括了针对经过培训(特定行业的工人)以了解电磁环境及其潜在危害的人群的限值,以及针对假定缺乏此类意识的普通公众的较低限值。充电期间在巴士内部或外部测量的磁场或电场均未超过ICNIRP或IEEE针对普通公众的暴露限值。
