Mitigation of Common Mode Voltage Issues in Electric Vehicle Drive Systems by Means of an Alternative AC-Decoupling Power Converter Topology
(MDPI, 2019-08-30)
Electric vehicles (EV) are gaining popularity due to current environmental concerns. The electric drive, which is constituted by a power converter and an electric machine, is one of the main elements of the EV. Such machines ...
Novel Thermal Management Strategy for Improved Inverter Reliability in Electric Vehicles
(MDPI, 2020-11-12)
Requirements for electric vehicle (EV) propulsion systems—i.e., power density, switching frequency and cost—are becoming more stringent, while high reliability also needs to be ensured to maximize a vehicle’s life-cycle. ...
Analysis of DC–DC power supply systems for pulsed loads from green electronics perspective
(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2015-06-01)
Discontinuous loads frequently compromise the performance of their power source and electronics. They cause the voltage and current ripple at the source and load, and introduce electromagnetic interferences. Also, they ...
