Commercially available electrical machines are generally not optimized for a broad operating range, as required in e.g. vehicle traction applications. The required mechanical angular velocity of the wheels for electrical vehicle propulsion is relatively low (around 1,000 rpm), while the torque demand is high (around 500 Nm). This combination requires an adequate solution in the mechanical, electromechanical...
Interleaving is a commonly used technique to reduce the output current ripple in parallel connected buck-stages. Harmonic cancellation is achieved by applying a phase-shift to the carrier waves of the pulse width modulator, resulting in a reduced output current ripple at a higher effective frequency. However, optimal interleaving is only achieved when switching cells are identical. When variations...
A new full-bridge circuit which can achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) for all the primary side switches over the full load range and a wide input voltage range is proposed. The ZVS is achieved by the energy stored in the auxiliary inductor and the magnetizing inductance of the transformer. Because the leakage inductance is relatively small, there is no severe duty ratio loss or severe voltage ringing...
A bi-directional multi-port converter can accommodate various energy storages and sources. Therefore, a multiport converter will be a good candidate for application as a future universal converter for (hybrid) electrical vehicles or local distribution systems. For the multiport converter proposed in this paper, the main design challenge is the design of its three-phase symmetrical transformer. In...
