Abstract

The major drawbacks of the most battery chargers for plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) are high volume and weight, low power, long charging time, deleterious harmonic effects on the electric utility distribution systems and low flexibility and reliability. This paper proposes a new battery charger structure for PHEV application using back to back (B2B) converter in a utility connected micro-grid. In the proposed structure, an AC micro-grid, based on the typical household circuitry configuration, is connected to the grid via a B2B converter; and the DC link is used for battery charging. In fact, the B2B converter can provide an isolated, low cost, simple and reliable connection with power-flow management between the grid, micro-grid and battery. This proposed structure, depending on the power requirement of the vehicle, can run in four different modes: battery charging mode from the grid (G2V) or micro-grid (M2V), vehicle to grid mode (V2G) and vehicle to micro-grid mode (V2H). The feasibility of the proposed scheme has been validated in the simulation study for various operating conditions.

Abstract

In this paper, hybridizing a heavy vehicle is developed. A switcher locomotive is considered for hybridization. Due to their low operational speed, the switcher locomotives require much lower power when compared to other types of locomotives. Besides, switcher locomotives have higher loss of energy due to their frequent starting and stopping. Hybrid-powered transit vehicles are considered to be excellent replacements for ordinary transit vehicles, since hybrid powered vehicles are equipped with more than one traction power sources. Therefore, a switcher locomotive’s driving cycle is derived from the measured field data and used to calculate and design the hybrid vehicle’s components. A “fuzzy controller” is used to plan a suitable controller for the designed hybrid locomotive. Comparisons show a substantial decrease, both in the fuel consumption and the pollutions of the designed hybrid switcher locomotive versus the conventional diesel-electric locomotives.

Abstract

This paper presents a simple and robust direct current control based predictive approach for rotor side converter (RSC) of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG), which operates at a constant switching frequency and has a fast dynamic response. First, sector of required rotor voltage vector is predicted in this strategy, and according to this predicted sector, two active vectors and two zero vectors are elected in each switching period. Derivatives of rotor current in the synchronous frame are determined for each predicted voltage vector in every period. These derivatives are used to compute the duration of the vectors in such a way that the current error at the end of the switching period gets minimized. The accuracy of the proposed control strategy under variation of rotor speed is evaluated in Matlab/Simulink environment for a 2 MW DFIG. Moreover, the impact of parameter variations on the system is examined for this suggested technique. Furthermore, the dynamic response and stator current total harmonic distortion (THD) of proposed strategy is compared with traditional vector control (VC), direct power control (DPC) and predictive direct power control (PDPC) methods. Finally, the performance of the proposed method is evaluated under disturbance voltage. The results demonstrate that suggested control technique has the lowest stator current THD and operates perfectly near the synchronous speed and under grid voltage dip.
