Simulation and implementation of a fuzzy controlled charger for Ni-Cd batteries

In this paper, a general-purpose fuzzy controlled charger for a set of Ni-Cd batteries is investigated, Simulated and experimentally tested. The fuzzy controller applied to a BUCK converter as a battery charging system and during the charge process, battery temperature and voltage variations are used as controller input variables and charge current as output .Battery voltage and temperature is kept safe and stable during the charge process. Experimental results also confirmed by computer simulation and show control potentialities.
