Performance Evaluation of DC-DC Converters for Solar Photovoltaic-fed Switched Reluctance Motor Applications in Electric Vehicles | Chapter 4 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 2

This member describes the performance of a Cosmic PV-powered switched disinclination motor accompanying low torque ripple in energetic vehicle applications. The prominent impression of solar energy in our nation’s strength requirements has become ruling in recent age. It is a boundless source of strength and the finest substitute for some other non-renewable beginnings in our country. Switched reluctance motors have enhance increasingly prevalent in the electric car subdivision due to their unbreakable looks, which include their enthusiastic ability, simple construction, lack of rotor windings, and depressed maintenance requirements. Nevertheless, because to its nonlinear face, SRM's large torque ripple is a restraint. This paper analyzes the performance of a exchanging reluctance engine with several DC-DC converters, and compares the judgments in terms of the motor's speed and turn ripple %. The switching time of the preacher is controlled by the MPPT controller, that uses incremental conveyance and the Integrator method. The converters presented in this place work are the Boost converter and the Cuk converter. These two types of converters are created in MATLAB software and their characteristics are analysed while furnishing the switched reluctance engine. . The DC-DC converter harvest is given to the input of capacity converter, which is irregular bridge converter. This converter drives the changed reluctance motor under changeable load conditions. By variable the duty cycle of the DC-DC preacher circuit the output service can be controlled. This in proper sequence controls the speed of the motor effectively. The verdicts of the simulation are used to resolve how well the suggested scheme works with the engine. From the results, it is evident that using this somewhat converter improves the speed and turn ripple performance of the cosmic PV powered switched disinclination motor. Hence, it is acceptable for electric vehicle uses, which require less revolution ripple and mechanical shakings.
