This paper present an input-series output-parallel active-clamp-forward converter for low voltage dc/dc xEV application. The converter can achieve ZVS turn-on for all switches. An accurate small signal model of the converter which includes the effect of leakage inductance is given and controller design based on modeling is described. Experimental and simulation results from a 3.2kW, 100kHz prototype are presented in order to verify the validity of the converter operation and the designed control parameters.

This paper proposes a DC-DC converter that satisfies a wide output voltage of 150 V-1000 V for the battery voltage of various electric vehicles and can be controlled in both directions for the demand resource of electric vehicles. The proposed converter is a two-stage structure in which an insulated converter and a non-isolated converter are combined and operates as constant current or constant power depending on the voltage of the connected battery. Experimental results from a 20 kW prototype are provided to validate the proposed charger, and a maximum efficiency of 97% is obtained.

Power losses of a 1-stage DC-DC converter and 2-stage DC-DC converter are compared in this paper. A phase-shift full-bridge DC-DC converter is considered as 1-stage topology. This topology has disadvantages in the stress of rectifier diodes because of the resonance between the leakage inductor of the transformer and the junction capacitor of the rectifier diode. 2-stage topology is composed of an LLC resonant full-bridge DC-DC converter and buck converter. The LLC resonant full-bridge DC-DC converter does not need an RC snubber circuit of the rectifier diode. However, there is the drawback that the switching loss of the buck converter is large due to the hard switching operation. To reduce the switching loss of the buck converter, SiC MOSFET is used. This paper analyzes and compares power losses of two topologies considering temperature condition. The validity of the power loss analysis and calculation is verified by a PSIM simulation model.

This paper proposes an adaptive sliding mode control (ASMC) strategy with an enhanced optimal reaching law (EORL) for the robust current tracking control of the boost converter based hybrid power source (HPS) in an electric vehicle (EV). A conventional ASMC strategy based on state observers and the hysteresis control method is used to realize the current tracking control for the boost converter based HPS. Then a novel enhanced exponential reaching law is proposed to improve the ASMC. Moreover, an enhanced exponential reaching law is optimized by particle swarm optimization. Finally, the adaptive control factor is redesigned based on the EORL. Simulations and experiments are established to validate the ASMC strategy with the EORL. Results show that the ASMC strategy with the EORL has an excellent current tracking control effect for the boost converter based HPS. When compared with the conventional ASMC strategy, the convergence time of the ASMC strategy with the EORL can be effectively improved. In EV applications, the ASMC strategy with the EORL can achieve robust current tracking control of the boost converter based HPS. It can guarantee the active and stable power distribution for boost converter based HPS.

This paper proposes a method to adjust the turn ratio of a transformer for the high-efficiency operation of an LLC converter with a wide input range in a wired/wireless integrated charging system for electric vehicles. The characteristics of the inductive power transfer converter in the integrated charging system are analyzed to design the LLC converter, and the DC-link voltage range is derived. The aspect of voltage gain following each parameter of the LLC converter is analyzed, and the resonant network and transformer are designed. Based on the designed parameters, the feasibility of the design and control method is verified by implementing the operation of the LLC converter according to the DC-link and battery voltages.

배터리의 수명에 영향을 주는 충전기의 성능이 중요하기 때문에 DC-DC 컨버터의 손실 저감은 곧 충전기의 성능 향상과 직결된다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 DC-DC 풀브릿지 부스트 컨버터에 액티브 클램프 회로를 추가하여 ZVS 동작을 통해 스위치 턴 온 시 생기는 전력 손실을 저감한다. 그로써 EV 배터리 충전기의 향상된 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증한다.

The control method of the bidirectional DC/DC converter for instantaneous regenerative current control is described in this paper. The general method to control the DC/DC converter is the output voltage control. However, the regenerative current cannot be controlled to be constant with this control method. To improve the performance of the conventional control method, the DC-link voltage of the inverter is controlled within the tolerance range by the instantaneous boost and buck operations of the bidirectional DC/DC converter. By the proposed control method, the battery current can be controlled to be constant regardless of the motor speed variation. The improved performance of the DC/DC converter controlled by the proposed control method is verified by the experiment and simulation of the system with the inverter and IPMSM(Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) which is operated by the reduced practical speed profile.
