Comments Off on Electrified Automotive Power train Architecture Using Composite DC-DC Converters
Posted in: IEEE 2017, Power Electronics
Electrified Automotive Power train Architecture Using Composite DC-DC Converters Abstract: In a hybrid or electric vehicle powertrain, a boost dc-dc converter enables reduction of the size of the electric machine and optimization of the battery system. Design of the powertrain boost converter is challenging because the converter must be rated at high peak power, while […]
