Abstract


This paper includes the design and implementation of a new electric vehicle charger, which is powered using a battery consisting of an enhanced power factor frontend. The traditional diode that is at the source end is omitted in the proposed design using the conventional power factor improvement inverter. The inverter has its parameters closer to the configuration of a basic push pull converter. The above-mentioned converter works with the phenomenon of electric vehicle battery control. Two modes of operation are incorporated out of which the former one is constant current mode and the latter is constant voltage mode. To obtain the desired regulation of DC voltage at the point of coupling and also to improve the operational efficiency to unity power factor, the proposed Landsman converter is operated using a single sensed individual. This method yields improved power quality, less harmonics in comparison with a conventional one. A prototype is constructed and tested by charging a 48V electric vehicle battery of 100Ah size under the transients in input voltage to display the proposed charger to an IEC61000-32 standard. All the cases are said to be satisfied by performance of the charger.
