Understanding the Application of the Discrete Element Method for Modelling Lithium-ion Batteries in Electric Vehicles: A Critical Review | Chapter 6 | Engineering Research: Perspectives on Recent Advances Vol. 12

 

Lithium-ion batteries are a type of rechargeable battery that uses lithium as a storage and energy generator. These batteries work by transferring lithium ions between a cathode and an anode through an electrolyte, generating energy during discharge and storing lithium during charging. Lithium-ion batteries have transformed the foundations of the world's infrastructure. From energy production to electricity distribution, the transportation of people and goods, and the operation of computing devices and even the internet. This scenario was analysed during the aforementioned conference, where the latest innovations in the battery field—sodium, cobalt-free, and even solid-state batteries—were the main focus of the event. The purpose of this project is the application of the discrete element method (DEM) for the realisation of a particle model based on the electrode material of the lithium-ion batteries in electric cars, trying to solve the main problems they present during charging and discharging, since these directly affect the lifetime of the same. The study concluded that the model developed has reliable foundations that can be implemented and, in turn, improved to obtain more accurate results.

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.

FPGA Based Controller Drive of BLDC Motor for Electric Vehicle Applications | Chapter 2 | Advances and Challenges in Science and Technology Vol. 8

 In Electric Vehicles (EVs), the engine which is working plays an extremely important act on the comprehensive acting of the vehicle. The genuine control and performance of the vehicle predominantly depends on the type of the motor and allure drive which is used to control the engine. Greater efficiency, speedy range and less noise are the main benefits of Brushless DC motors when compared to different types of electric motors. The objective concerning this work is to cultivate a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based control drive for BLDC motors that can be achieved in electric automobiles. Brushless DC motors are being employed significantly in modern and automotive applications. Brushless DC motors further require substitution like brushed DC motor, but the main dissimilarity is BLDC motors have electronic substitution which increases the effectiveness and performance of the motor. FPGA-located motor control drives are secondhand as other alternatives for MCU and DSP. The benefits that FPGAs can offer are the ability to use rule pulse-width timbre (PWM), simple component unification, higher control-loop frequency range, lesser components and taller dependability. FPGAs still succeed in evolving methods which power help in decreasing the deficits in both engine and power converter.
