Adaptive Control Strategy for Seamless Bidirectional Power Flow in Three-Phase Dual Active Bridge Converters for EV Fast Charging Applications
摘要
This paper introduces an adaptive control strategy for a three-phase Dual Active Bridge (DAB) converter, designed to facilitate efficient bidirectional power flow in electric vehicle (EV) fast-charging stations. The proposed control method effectively manages real-time fluctuations in grid conditions and the state-of-charge (SOC) of batteries, ensuring stable operation in both Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) and Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V) modes. Utilizing a dq-reference frame-based decoupled controller with SOC feedback, the solution is rigorously validated through MATLAB/Simulink simulations. The design encompasses LCL filter modeling, DAB phase shift modulation, and battery interfacing under diverse loading scenarios. Simulation results reveal significant improvements in performance, highlighting the system’s ability to maintain high efficiency during both charging and discharging phases. By enhancing the responsiveness and stability of power exchange between EVs and the grid, this research aims to contribute to the development of advanced fast-charging infrastructure capable of supporting increasing EV adoption while optimizing overall electric grid performance. The findings underscore the potential of adaptive control strategies in ensuring reliable and efficient energy management within smart grid environments.
