ALTERNATING CURRENT CHARGING OF A DIRECT CURRENT BATTERY PACK OF AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE USING FIELD-ORIENTED CONTROL

A method includes coupling a charge port to an inverter and an alternating current (AC) electric motor. The method also includes performing field-oriented control (FOC) for controlling the inverter and the electric motor for converting AC power received from the charge port to first direct current…

DRIVE DEVICE

In a normal state, the system startup is performed by turning on the positive-side relay of the system main relay and the precharge relay to charge the high-voltage-side smoothing capacitor, then turning on the negative-side relay, and further charging the branch-side smoothing capacitor by the…

POWER CONVERSION DEVICE

A power conversion device includes a negative side wiring and a positive side wiring. The positive side wiring is provided with a coil of a motor. The power conversion device uses a coil to boost a DC voltage. The power conversion device includes a Y capacitor provided between the positive side…

An universal on-board charger cum inverter system () adapted to be implemented within a vehicle has been provided. The system comprises a unified charger cum traction inverter (UCCTI) (), a traction motor (), a first circuit breaker () and a second circuit breaker () and a controller (). The…

BATTERY ELECTRIC VEHICLE

The battery electric vehicle selects and executes a charge mode from a first charge mode in which power supplied from an external power source device to a first neutral point of a first motor is supplied to a power storage device via the first motor and a first inverter, and a second charge mode in…

Electrified vehicle includes a first motor, a battery for supplying power to the first motor, a first inverter for converting DC power from the battery into AC power supplied to the first motor, a charging inlet for receiving charging power for charging the battery, a charging circuit for…

ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATION

This disclosure is directed to methods and systems for charging an electric vehicle. A charging system may be used to charge the energy storage devices of an electric vehicle by using the power generation or regeneration systems or devices of the vehicle. The vehicle may access the charging system…

Methods and systems for predicting a potential alternator failure in a motor vehicle are provided. The method includes determining a potential alternator undercharging condition if a duration between the maximum cranking voltage time stamp and the maximum device voltage time stamp is greater than…
