Some aspects are illustrated of energy conversion processes during the operation of electric railway vehicles with traction induction motors, in order to support transport systems’ sustainability. Increasing efforts are being expended to enhance the sustainability of transportation technologies and systems. Since electric drive systems are used with variable voltage variable frequency (VVVF) in...

 Traditional 2-level high-frequency pulse width modulation (PWM) inverters for motor drives have several problems associated with their high frequency switching which produces common-mode voltage and high voltage change (dV/dt) rates to the motor windings. Multilevel inverters solve these problems because their devices can switch at a much lower frequency. Two different multilevel topologies a...

We have developed a new isolated AC/DC converter for electric vehicle on-board chargers. It consists of an AC/DC converter with Gradationally Controlled Voltage Inverter (GCVI AC/DC converter) and an isolated Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS) DC/DC converter, each of which is optimally controlled to convert in a highly efficient means. As a result, the new on-board charger has achieved a power conve...

One of the most critical issues for the environment today is pollution generated by hydrocarbon combustion, which is one of the main sources of power for transportation. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) and full electric vehicles (EV) are rapidly advancing as alternative power trains for green transportation. The vehicles’ electrification not only involves the traction parts, but it is also gener...

The paper introduces soft switching of a Boost Converter which can be included in the Electrical Vehicle technology. In order to raise the motor power rating, the DC link Vehicles, there is a great need for less component stress, smaller voltage of inverter up to 400V, and higher efficiency. The conventional Boost Converter generates switching loss at turn on and off thus the whole system's eff...

A study of the fundamental of operation of a three-phase AC-DC power converter that uses Zero-Voltage Transition (ZVT) together with Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) is presented. The converter is basically an active rectifier divided into two converters: a matrix converter and an H bridge, which transfer energy through a high-frequency transformer, resulting in a modular AC-DC wirel...

The proposed converter consists of two LC networks similar to the conventional Z-source and Z-H converters. One of the characteristics of the proposed structure is that, without any changing in its’ power circuit, it can be used in different conversions such as dc/dc, dc/ac and ac/ac. This unique...

This paper proposes a new soft-switched continuous conduction-mode (CCM) boost converter. its suitable for high-power applications such as hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel cell power conversion systems. The proposed converter achieves zero-voltage-switched (ZVS) turn-on of active switches in CCM and zero-current-switched turn-off of diodes leading to negligible reverserecovery loss. The compo...
