Converter (Inverter/Rectifier)
Converter must fulfill two functions:
1) Inverter operation during starting and motoring up to
3000rpm
2) Rectifier operation during generating mode
Inverter
PWM Inverter




1)
2)
3)
4)
Operates during both motoring and generating modes
Converts DC supply voltage to 3 phase AC
Provides excitation current to stator windings
Additional specifications of the Inverter
Input dc voltage: VDC = 200V
Frequency range: 10-200 Hz
Current at low frequency of 15 Hz: Iline = 30 Apeak
Output voltage as high as possible for given input voltage
Rectifier
Rectifier

Operates only during generating

Converts AC current to DC in order to charge battery

Additional specification of the rectifier
Output voltage: VDC = 200V @ 10 ADC maximum or
at least deliver 1 kW to the battery at 200V with
efficiency of 75%
Gate/Motor Drivers
Provide fast change in current to drive the gates of all
IGBT/MOSFET switches in the converter

world can use it as it would



Increases overall efficiency of vehicle
Decreases overall cost
Take up less space
Target Manufacturing cost of $100
Possible Patent
Challenges, Risks, and Contingencies
Challenges
 This has never been done effectively!
 What makes us think we will succeed where many
have failed?
Risks
 We could quite possibly fail to meet the IFEC
specifications with our first (capstone) design.
 We may be unable to make the machine
automatically shift speeds and windings
Challenges, Risks, and Contingencies
Contingencies
 For expo we will have a motor controlled with our
controller that will run, although it may not meet
the requirements dictated by IFEC.
 If this occurs a permanent magnet rotor will be
designed and used in place of the squirrel cage
rotor in order to increase torque and efficiency
 This is beyond the scope of capstone
 Will be able to run each characteristic for testing
using user interface to set frequency and manually
switch windings
