Design and Performance Analysis of a Single-Phase Multifunctional Integrated Converter for Electric Vehicles

Abstract

This research paper discusses the design and implementation of a single phase multifunctional integrated converter for electric vehicles (EVs). The converter is capable of performing several functions, including battery charging, motor drive, and grid-tie operation. The proposed converter is based on a single-phase full-bridge topology with integrated power electronics, which makes it highly efficient and compact. The converter is designed to operate at a high switching frequency, which reduces the size of passive components, and its control strategy ensures reliable operation in all operating modes.

Keywords: Electric vehicles, integrated converter, single-phase, multifunctional, battery charging, motor drive, grid-tie, full-bridge topology, power electronics, high efficiency, control strategy, reliable operation, switching frequency, passive components, powertrain.
