Power Quality Control And Common-Mode Noise Mitigation For Inverters In Electric Vehicles, Yang Huang
Doctoral Dissertations
Inverters are widely utilized in electric vehicle (EV) applications as a major voltage/current source for onboard battery chargers (OBC) and motor drive systems. The inverter performance is critical to the efficiency of EV system energy conversion and electronics system electro-magnetic interference (EMI) design. However, for AC systems, the bandwidth requirement is usually low compared with DC systems, and the control impact on the inverter differential-mode (DM) and common-mode (CM) performance are not well investigated. With the wide-band gap (WBG) device era, the switching capability of power electronics devices drastically improved. The DM/CM impact that was brought by the WBG device-based …

Modeling And Optimization Algorithm For Sic-Based Three-Phase Motor Drive System, Ren Ren
Doctoral Dissertations
More electric aircraft (MEA) and electrified aircraft propulsion (EAP) becomes the important topics in the area of transportation electrifications, expecting remarkable environmental and economic benefits. However, they bring the urgent challenges for the power electronics design since the new power architecture in the electrified aircraft requires many benchmark designs and comparisons. Also, a large number of power electronics converter designs with different specifications and system-level configurations need to be conducted in MEA and EAP, which demands huge design efforts and costs. Moreover, the long debugging and testing process increases the time to market because of gaps between the paper design …

Design And Control Of High Power Density Motor Drive, Dong Jiang
Doctoral Dissertations
This dissertation aims at developing techniques to achieve high power density in motor drives under the performance requirements for transportation system. Four main factors influencing the power density are the main objects of the dissertation: devices, passive components, pulse width modulation (PWM) methods and motor control methods.
Firstly, the application of SiC devices could improve the power density of the motor drive. This dissertation developed a method of characterizing the SiC device performance in phase-leg with loss estimation, and claimed that with SiC Schottky Barrier Diode the advantage of SiC JFET could benefit the motor drive especially at high temperature. …
