Abstract
In this paper, the analysis and simulations of a Full-Bridge DC-DC Converter and a Boost DC-DC Converter with Resonant Circuit for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) are presented. Simulations are carried out using MATLAB-SIMULINK software and the results show that both the converters are able to boost the input voltage of 220V to an output voltage of 440V, and 480V respectively, which is required to control the motor. The outputs of these converters are then applied to a 3-phase 180° mode voltage source inverter (VSI) fed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The converters, which are connected to a 3-phase 180° mode VSI fed PMSM, are also simulated and presented in this paper. The input ripples of the converters are reduced by connecting the inductor in series with the input DC source. The output voltage ripples are also removed/reduced by connecting a capacitor-based filter at the output side of the converter. MATLAB 2018b is used for the simulation.
