摘要：In this paper, an improved power quality converter derived from Cuk converter is proposed for the electric vehicle battery charging under universal-input voltage operation. The proposed converter offers high voltage gain, low voltage stress across the switch, lower conduction losses and reverse recovery losses during low input voltage condition. It yields improvement in efficiency at the low input supply voltage over the single-switch converters such as buck-boost, fly-back, SEPIC, and Cuk topologies and two-switch buck-boost cascaded converters. The proposed converter is designed to operate in a continuous conduction mode. The modeling and simulation of converter are carried out in the Simulink environment of MATLAB software. The developed simulink model is validated by a prototype model of same specification using Xilinx made Spartan3 processor under MATLAB environment in real time. To investigate the performance of the converter in terms of power quality indices like THD, input PF of source voltage and source current are evaluated under constant voltage and constant current modes of battery charging, for wide range of supply voltage variations. The performance of the converter is tested both in steady state and transient conditions.
