Modeling Of a Pv Cell For Maximum Tracking For Energy Control With Srm Drive

Abstract

 Electric vehicles are automobiles, which are powered by electrical engine and electrical energy. Due to the limitation of current battery technologies, the driving range is very short. In earlier, in terms of motor drives, high performance permanent-magnet (PM) machines are widely used. In PM machines there is no field winding and the field is provided by the permanent magnet. Most commonly rare earth materials are used. But they are very costlier. To overcome these issues a photovoltaic panel and a switched reluctance motor can be used for power supply and motor drive. In order to decrease the energy conversion processes, one approach is to redesign the motor to include some onboard charging functions. The solar energy utilization and maximum power point tracking (MPPT) are the unique factors for the PV-fed electric vehicles. In order to achieve low-cost and flexible energy flow modes, a novel low-cost tri-port converter is proposed in this paper in order to coordinate the PV panel, SRM, and battery. To support flexible control of energy flow six operational modes are developed.
