Advanced control strategies for PV powered PMBLDC motor with DC DC converter for enhanced EV performance

Abstract

The growing popularity of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is driving a shift newlinein sustainable transport, making them significant for technological innovation. newlineHowever, accomplishing efficient and reliable operation of EV necessitates newlinesophisticated energy management systems, which effectively utilizes newlineRenewable Energy Sources (RESs) such as solar power. In this regard, this newlineresearch proposes a novel hybrid energy system combining renewable energy newlinewith efficient energy storage solutions and advanced control methods for newlinepowering the Permanent Magnet Brushless DC (PMBLDC) motor of EV. The newlinePhotovoltaic (PV) panel serves as the main component, converting solar newlineenergy into electrical form. Nevertheless, gets affected by irradiance and newlinetemperature factors leading to output fluctuations. To address this limitations, newlineadvanced converters are employed for efficient boosting of PV voltage. The newlineintegrated Single Ended primary Inductor Converter (SEPIC) Zeta converter newlineoffers efficient boosting of voltage by combing the benefits of SEPIC and zeta newlinetopologies providing wider range of voltage regulation. To further improve newlinethe system performance, modified SEPIC-Luo converter is incorporated, newlinewhich improves the energy conversion efficiency, with higher reliability. In newlineaddition to converters, controller are crucial for optimal regulation of newlineconverter in the hybrid system. Various control strategies are implemented, newlinewhere the conventional Proportional Integral (PI) is widely utilized for its newlinesimplicity and effectiveness. However, to enhance the system performance newlinemetaheuristic optimization approaches are incorporated. newline
