Analysis of Bidirectional Dual Input Single Output DC-DC Converter for EV Application

This paper proposes the charging application of electric vehicle(EV) using Bidirectional dual input single output (BDISO) dc-dc converter. BDISO converter is used to convert direct current(DC) from one voltage level to another voltage level. A dual input mechanism where one dc input is taken from solar PV array while the other dc input is taken from utility grid where AC is converted to DC with the help of rectifier and are given to the BDISO DC-DC converter. The resultant DC from the BDISO is given to the battery and used for the purpose of charging the EV. The running of the converter along with the charging criteria is discussed in this paper through the simulation model in simulink.
