  • Abstract:
  • This study provides an overview of power electronics systems in electric vehicles (EVs) and investigates methods for improving energy conversion efficiency using MATLAB/Simulink. It examines various EV components, addresses challenges in energy transfer, and evaluates power electronics for voltage control. Using MATLAB/Simulink, the study models and simulates a DC fast charging station, focusing on unity power factor analysis, isolated DC-DC converters, and front-end converters. The setup includes a grid as a three-phase voltage source, a DC fast charging station, and an EV battery pack with sensors for voltage and current measurements. Key components analyzed include filters, converters, inverters, and HF isolation transformers. The findings demonstrate that effective power electronics circuits achieve stable DC bus voltage and controlled charging, minimizing overcharging risks and ensuring consistent current supply, thereby enhancing battery longevity and safety. Insights from the battery terminal voltage fluctuations and charging process dynamics provide valuable information for optimizing EV battery performance and developing charging process optimization algorithms.
