This paper proposes an analytical and dynamic electro-thermal model of a three-phase inverter based on wide bandgap semiconductors (SiC) for application in electric vehicles (EV). The optimal design approach of the passive filters is presented for LCL filters at DC side and LC filters at AC side of the inverter. The analytical modelling is performed, which includes mathematical representation of the inverter's power losses based on the ...

Electric vehicles (EVs) play a major role in mitigating global warming and environmental pollution; they can reduce fossil-fuel emissions, if vehicle-propulsion energy is obtained from sustainable sources or a clean-energy mix. EV charging systems are essential for recharging zero-emission-vehicle batteries. A suitable off-board charging infrastructure is required to efficiently and effectively charge EVs. Off-board charging systems enable the ...
