In this paper, to solve the hard-switching operation problem and lack of existing a bidirectional power flow path from output energy storage device conventional three-port converter, new soft-switched multi-port converter is proposed. A large number switches, different paths which vary in each operating mode, changing outputs their levels are some challenges provide soft-switching conditions co...

An electric vehicle (EV), otherwise called as an electric drive vehicle uses one or more electric motors or traction motors to create the driving force needed for motion. Considering the power supply for vehicle computer and electronics, battery and DC-DC converter is required. To achieve the required voltage levels, power converters and inductances are required. Resonant converters are popular...

Electric vehicles (EVs) and photovoltaics (PVs) are new technologies that will play an important role in the transportation industry over next decade. Using solar panels on roofs of cars is one simplest ways to reduce fuel costs increase mobility electric vehicles. Solar can be charged anywhere under Sun without additional infrastructure, but problem size panel limited roof electricity conversi...

This paper presents a comparison between two design methodologies applied to permanent magnet synchronous machines for hybrid and electric vehicles (HEVs EVs). Both are based on 2D finite element models coupled genetic algorithm optimize complex non-linear geometries such as multi-layer machines. To reduce the computation duration evaluate Induced Voltage Iron Losses given electrical machine co...
