Week-6 Challenge: EV Drivetrain
1. Power converter circuits in EV & HEV
- Electric and hybrid electric vehicles require both alternating and direct currents. power electronic converters are used as per the requirement.
- In order to design highly efficient converters for the EV’s power system, advanced DC/DC and DC/AC converters are required to adapt the output voltage and current levels with high power quality.
Below are the types of converters used in Electric and Hybrid Electric vehicles.
- AC to DC Converter
