Power Electronics for EV, HEV and PHEV Applications
Upcoming open enrollment dates being scheduled. Please check back.
**Please note this course is presented in Chinese only. It is not being translated into English.** Modern power electronics and electric drives are the key enabling technologies propelling the shift of the automotive industry from conventional gasoline/diesel engine powered vehicles to electric drive vehicles (EDVs), including pure electric vehicles (EVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). Of particular importance are unique characteristics of power converters and motors used in EVs, HEVs, and PHEVs, which include rectifiers, unidirectional and bidirectional DC-DC converters, inverters, battery chargers, and various motor drives. This course begins with an introduction to the principle of electric drivetrain, followed by a thorough coverage of various converters and motor drive technology. The unique aspects of power converters in EVs, HEVs, and PHEVs are addressed, including vehicle to grid technology and battery chargers. The pros and cons of different types of electric drives are discussed. Various emerging technologies, such as new motor topologies and silicon carbide devices are explained.
