A contactless power feeding system includes: a primary circuit for supplying primary power to a power feeding coil; and a primary control circuit for controlling the primary circuit. The primary control circuit acquires, from a secondary control circuit, a secondary measured value and a secondary target value of secondary power received by a power receiving coil. The primary control circuit performs control processing and update processing alternately and repeatedly. The control processing is processing of controlling the primary circuit to bring the primary measured value into conformity with a primary target value. The update processing is processing of updating the primary target value. The update processing includes processing of calculating the primary target value based on transfer efficiency to be determined by the primary measured value and the secondary measured value and on the secondary target value.

Contactless power feeding system and contactless power transfer system

An electric power conversion device according to the present disclosure includes: a positive electrode unit including a positive main conductor portion and a positive joining conductor portion; a negative electrode unit including a negative main conductor portion and a negative joining conductor portion; a capacitor circuit connected to the positive electrode unit and the negative electrode unit; an electric power conversion unit connected to the positive main conductor portion, the positive joining conductor portion, the negative main conductor portion, and the negative joining conductor portion; and a heat dissipation unit joined to the capacitor circuit unit and the electric power conversion unit. The positive main conductor portion and the negative main conductor portion are insulated from each other and arranged facing each other, and the positive joining conductor portion and the negative joining conductor portion are insulated from each other and arranged facing each other.
