Electric Vehicle Drives
Abstract
 To a switched-capacitor (SC) voltage boost converter and its control methods for
implementing dc-ac and ac-dc power conversion.
 A bidirectional SC converter for dc-ac and ac-dc power conversion in electric and
hybrid electric vehicles.
 To presents the switched-capacitor voltage boost (SC) converter and its control
methods.
 The switched capacitor circuit is used to create a multi-leveled dc-link
voltage.
 Therefore, the proposed switched-capacitor circuit differs from the
conventional one by not having the reverse blocking diode at the load side
or the large filtering capacitor.
 The regulation of the output current and voltage is realized by unified
control of both the inverter and the switched-capacitor stages
Existing system/Drawbacks
 The power rating of the dc-dc converter must match the battery pack
power, leading to a proportionally large inductor.
 The inductor is a heavy and costly component.
 Furthermore, the inductor copper and core losses increase proportionally
with the size of the inductor.
 When boosted by a high-voltage ratio, the boost converter must operate
with a high duty cycle where the efficiency is relatively low

 We’ve all come across pesky situations where we need a slightly higher voltage
than our power supplies can provide. We need 12 volts, but have only a 9 volt
battery. Or maybe we have a 3.3V supply when our chip needs 5V. That too, in
most cases, the current draw is quite decent.
 Eventually, we ask ourselves the question, is it possible to convert one DC voltage
to another?
 Lucky for us, the answer is yes. It is possible to convert one DC voltage to
another, however the methods are a slightly on the clever side.
 And no, it does not involve the conversion of DC to AC and back again. As it
involves too many steps. Anything that has too many steps is inefficient; this is a
good life lesson too.
 Enter the world of switch mode DC-DC converters!
 They’re called switch mode because there’s usually a semiconductor switch that
turns on and off very rapidly.
Switched capacitor boost voltage
When the switch is then closed and the right hand side is shorted out from
the left hand side, the capacitor is therefore able to provide
the voltage and energy to the load. During this time, the blocking diode
prevents the capacitor from discharging through the switch.
Switched capacitor advantages
 SC converter are the continuous input current
 achieving high voltage gain with low voltage and current stress on
the power components,
 no use of a high-frequency transformer
 easy to increase the voltage by adding the SC cell.
INTRODUCTION
Brushless DC motor are
synchronous motors which
are powered by a DC
electric source, through an
integrated Inverter, which
produces an AC signal to
drive the motor.
Construction
• Similarities with AC Induction Motor and brushed
DC motor
• Y pattern gives high torque at low RPM and the ∆ pattern
gives low torque at low RPM. This is because in the ∆
configuration, half of the voltage is applied across the winding
that is not driven, thus increasing losses and, in turn,
efficiency and torque.
STATOR
Steel laminations in the stator can be slotted or
slot less. A slot less core has lower inductance,
thus it can run at very high speeds. Because of
the absence of teeth in the lamination stack,
requirements for the cogging torque
also go
down, thus
making
them
an ideal fit
for low
speeds too.
ROTOR
• The rotor of a typical BLDC motor is made out
of permanent magnets. Depending upon the
application requirements, the number of poles
in the rotor may vary. Increasing the number
of poles does give better torque but at the
cost of reducing the maximum possible
speed.
• Another rotor parameter that impacts the
maximum torque is the material used for the
construction of permanent magnet;
the higher the flux
density of the
material the higher
the torque.

SPEED
CONTROL
• Motor speed depends upon the amplitude of the
applied voltage. The amplitude of the applied
signal is adjusted by using PWM.
• The higher side transistors are driven using
PWM. By controlling the duty cycle of the PWM
signal, the amplitude of the
applied voltage
can be
controlled,
which in turn will
control the
speed of the
motor.
TORQUE
CONTROL
• Torque can be controlled by adjusting the
magnetic flux. However, magnetic flux is
dependent upon the current flowing through
the windings. Thus, by controlling current,
torque of a motor can be controlled.
MOTOR
PROTECTION
• Peak current :-This is the maximum instantaneous
current allowed to flow through the windings for safe
operation. This condition occurs in case of a short
circuit.
• Under Voltage : – When the system is running on
batteries, it becomes important to cut off the supply if
the battery voltage drops below a particular limit.
• Hall Sensor Failure : – The commutation sequence will
break, which may cause the BLDC motor to become
stuck and the current to rise above a particular limit.
Signal changes its logic level or not. If it gets stuck to a
particular level, then it can be detected as a failure and
the motor drive can be disconnected, letting it run on
inertia or be stopped by applying the brake.
ADVANTAGE
S
• Accelerate and decelerate easily because of low rotor
inertia.
• High performance motor that provides large torque
per unit volume over a vast speed range.
• Such motors cooled by conduction and no air flow
are required for inside cooling.
• As brushes are absent, the mechanical energy loss
due to friction is less which enhanced efficiency,
more reliable, high life expectancies, and
maintenance free operation.
• BLDC motor can operate at high-speed under
any condition.
• There is no sparking and much less noise
during operation.

Conclusion
switched-capacitor power converter (SC) for implementing dc-ac and ac-dc
power conversion. The SC converter employs a switched- Capacitor circuit
augmented with the main converter circuit to the power source, thus
providing unique features that cannot be Attained by the traditional VSI or
boost VSI. One of these unique features is doubling the area of the linear
modulation region. The SC converter eliminates the need for the
cumbersome and costly inductor to boost the voltage. Instead, it relies on
only the capacitors to achieve voltage boost, which allows higher power
density. The formulation of the maximum voltage drop across the capacitor
and the minimum charging current are analytically derived. The analytical
