A Reconfigurable Single-Phase Single-Stage Integrated Battery Charger for Modular Charging of High-Voltage Batteries in Electric Vehicles with Second-Order Harmonic Component Suppression
摘要
Demand for low-cost and lightweight chargers for electric vehicles led to the development of onboard integrated battery chargers (IBCs). Among various topologies, Single-phase single-stage converters are preferred due to their wide supply compatibility and compact design. However, they exhibit second-order harmonics in output currents and struggle to achieve high voltage gains. To mitigate these challenges, this paper proposes a reconfigurable single-phase, single-stage IBC. It leverages propulsion components, utilizing motor winding inductance for harmonic suppression and modular charging to reduce high voltage requirements. A 2.2 kW prototype demonstrates almost unity power factor operation with low total harmonic distortion
