The electric drive system is one of the key technologies for electric vehicles. First, the energy flow of an electric vehicle is analyzed in the driving, braking, and charging working states. After that, a drive topology that can achieve 3 working states is proposed based on the driving characteristics of a switched reluctance machine. In the driving state, the boost mode of a front-end converter is used to achieve different operating conditions, including low speed with a light load or high speed with a heavy load. In the braking state, the front-end converter is used to implement smooth switching between …

A New Deployment Method For Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure, Bünyami̇n Yağciteki̇n, Mehmet Uzunoğlu, Ari̇f Karakaş

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The fast depletion of fossil fuels, climate change, and global warming have become major worldwide problems and alternatives for conventional transportation have been actively researched in the last decade. Compared to available conventional vehicles, electric vehicles have a leading position due to their environmentally friendly transportation. Recent electric vehicle penetration brings the necessity of a high number of charging stations, which are considered to be established in community areas such as shopping centers, hospitals, commercial areas, university campuses, residential areas, and streets. Deployment planning of charging stations is very important for driver expectations and social and economic impacts of electric …
