Battery chargers for plugin electric vehicles can be costly and add to the weight and volume of the vehicle when designed to be on-board. Conversely, integrated battery chargers not only re-use the already available components on-board but also provide a higher charging power capability than their dedicated counterparts. Such chargers use the traction motor's windings as input filter when connected...
The use of six-phase motors is an attractive option for electric and hybrid electric vehicles due to its modularity. Demand for high power density and lower costs for electric traction drives has led to the idea of integrating the battery charging function into the traction drive. When the main battery for dual motor type electric and hybrid electric vehicles is being charged, the equivalent power...
The demand for higher power density in electric traction applications has led to compact design requirements for traction drives complicating its thermal management. Therefore, the traction drive's thermal management has to be addressed by its design and/or control. Normally, the traction inverter becomes the bottleneck in providing the transient rated peak torque at zero and near zero speeds due...
A Microgrid is a devised grouping of loads, generation sources and energy storage interfaced through fast response power electronics to form a small scale power network. The paper discusses the complexities that could be faced by the existing Saudi Arabian Grid when Distributed Generation Resources are introduced to it. Considering a case of small microgrid and simulating a network similar to T and...
