Hybrid Energy Storage System Based BLDC Motor Driven Electric Vehicle

The key task in electric vehicles for successful working is the proper utilization of hybrid energy sources. The type of electric motor and technology of converter impacts a greater significance in regulating the operating characteristics of vehicle. This paper indicates the operation of a multiple input power electronic converter which is to be used in an electric vehicle that consists of a PV unit and hybrid sources. Hybrid sources are comprised of ultra-capacitor/ battery unit. To make use of energy from hybrid energy sources, proper control mechanism is required; and hence it is the challenging area in electric vehicle. The energy dissipated while braking mode shall be effectively harvested by proper utilization of braking mechanism in electric vehicles. As a result the need of fuel for vehicle can be minimised resulting in the improvement of fuel economy
