I. INTRODUCTION essential innovation. Multilevel converters embody a wise technique to attach energy semiconductors in set, reducing the Two-stage geographies along with intermediary DC/DC current surge as well as the result accordant misinterpretation converter, demonstrated in Fig. 2, decouple the electric and also the popular method current. To attain comparable batteries coming from the DC/AC sale stage set and also this current sphere along with the two-level converter the changing takes advantages to electric batteries. Having said that, the regularity is actually lessened, consequently these converters sale effectiveness is actually minimized as a result of the are actually better for requests where higher streams are reductions in the DC/DC converter. For that reason making actually shifted. use of solitary phase geographies, received Fig. 1, where the electric batteries are actually straight hooked up to the inverter DC-Link, the effectiveness may be enhanced. This enhancement in productivity carries the negative aspect from possessing a drifting current in the inverter DC Link based on the electric batteries unique. Therefore, the electric battery pack minimal current need to be actually dimensioned relatively much higher to become capable to infuse present in the network till the electric batteries are actually fully released. For reduced current storage space programs, the classic two-level converter is actually the absolute most reliable as well as the absolute most previously owned geography Its own command simple that is actually superior yet possesses essential setbacks like: usual method current approximately half from the DC Link current, higher changing regularity function to observe accordant specifications. When the operating current is actually improved, this geography calls for set linked electrical power semiconductors and also the geography is actually certainly not fascinating any longer. For channel current, the multilevel converters are actually the Fig.1.1:Block model diagram.

  • Primary Energy Use and Environmental Effects of Electric Vehicles
    Article Primary Energy Use and Environmental Effects of Electric Vehicles Efstathios E. Michaelides Department of Engineering, TCU, Fort Worth, TX 76132, USA; [email protected] Abstract: The global market of electric vehicles has become one of the prime growth industries of the 21st century fueled by marketing efforts, which frequently assert that electric vehicles are “very efficient” and “produce no pollution.” This article uses thermodynamic analysis to determine the primary energy needs for the propulsion of electric vehicles and applies the energy/exergy trade-offs between hydrocarbons and electricity propulsion of road vehicles. The well-to-wheels efficiency of electric vehicles is comparable to that of vehicles with internal combustion engines. Heat transfer to or from the cabin of the vehicle is calculated to determine the additional energy for heating and air-conditioning needs, which must be supplied by the battery, and the reduction of the range of the vehicle. The article also determines the advantages of using fleets of electric vehicles to offset the problems of the “duck curve” that are caused by the higher utilization of wind and solar energy sources. The effects of the substitution of internal combustion road vehicles with electric vehicles on carbon dioxide emission avoidance are also examined for several national electricity grids. It is determined that grids, which use a high fraction of coal as their primary energy source, will actually increase the carbon dioxide emissions; while grids that use a high fraction of renewables and nuclear energy will significantly decrease their carbon dioxide emissions. Globally, the carbon dioxide emissions will decrease by approximately 16% with the introduction of electric vehicles.

  • Electric Battery Car Competition Rules
    Colorado Middle School Car Competition Electric Battery Division The Colorado Middle School Car Competition is a classroom-based, hands-on educational program for 6th – 8th grade students. Student teams apply math, science, and creativity to construct and race model lithium-ion powered cars. The primary goals of the programs are to: • Generate enthusiasm for science and engineering at a crucial stage in the educational development of young people; • Improve students' understanding of scientific concepts and renewable energy technologies; and • Encourage young people to consider technical careers at an early age. Program description: • Students use mathematics and science principles together with their creativity in a fun, hands-on educational program. • Using engineering principles, students get excited about generating ideas in a group and then building and modifying models based on these ideas. • Students can see for themselves how changes in design are reflected in car performance. • Students work together on teams to apply problem solving and project management skills. The car competition challenges students to use scientific know-how, creative thinking, experimentation, and teamwork to design and build high-performance model electric battery vehicles. Rules Competition Structure: The Colorado competition will use preliminary time trials before progressing to a double elimination tournament for the finals. Each team will have three time trials to achieve their fastest time. Any car that does not finish in 40 seconds will be considered a Did Not Finish (DNF). Only the fastest 16 teams will progress to the double elimination tournament. In the event of a tie, teams will have a race-off to qualify for the double elimination round.

D Associate Professor of Mathematics Honors Advisor * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) were created to lessen our dependence on natural resources. EVs and HEVs run on battery packs and the pack can be recharged from a household outlet. Because the vehicles are charged using energy draw from the grid, the problem of efficiency on a large scale become a concern. For conventional chargers, the charging efficiency may be improved due to enhanced in battery technology, charging protocol, or charging circuitry. Recently, Gallium Nitride (GaN) devices were introduced that have better performance than other semiconductors used in charging circuits. GaN has a higher bandgap than conventional materials which allows it to withstand high level of voltage. GaN can also operate at higher frequency resulting in much faster switching capability. The ability to withstand higher temperature allows GaN devices to require smaller heat sinks which effectively reduce the cost of the devices. In this thesis, a DC-DC converter as used in battery charger will be designed using Gallium Nitride devices and tested for efficiency.

  • Performance, Charging, and Second-Use Considerations for Lithium Batteries for Plug-In Electric Vehicles
    Performance, Charging, and Second-use Considerations for Lithium Batteries for Plug-in Electric Vehicles Andrew Burke Institute of Transportation Studies University of California-Davis May 2009 Research supported by UC Davis Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Research Center and Sustainable Transportation Energy Pathways Program of the UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies Presentation based on this paper given at the The Electricity Storage Association Meeting, May 2009, Session on Transportation and the Grid 2 Abstract This paper is concerned with batteries for use in plug-in electric vehicles. These vehicles use batteries that store a significant amount (kWh) of energy and thus will offer the possibilities for second-use in utility related applications such as residential and commercial backup systems and solar and wind generation systems. Cell test data are presented for the performance of lithium-ion batteries of several chemistries suitable for use in plug-in vehicles. The energy density of cells using NiCo (nickelate) in the positive electrode have the highest energy density being in the range of 100-170 Wh/kg. Cells using iron phosphate in the positive have energy density between 80-110 Wh/kg and those using lithium titanate oxide in the negative electrode can have energy density between 60-70 Wh/kg. Tests were performed for charging rates between 1C and 6C. The test results indicate that both iron phosphate and titanate oxide battery chemistries can be fast charged. However, the fast charge capability of the titanate oxide chemistry is superior to that of the iron phosphate chemistry both with respect to temperature rise during charging and the Ah capacity retention for charging up to the maximum voltage without taper.
