Abstract

This paper describes the choice and the design of electric vehicles power train structure reducing considerably the energy consumption. Indeed The converter feeding the motor is naturally with IGBTs leading on the one hand to important losses and on the other hand to many control problems. This structure is replaced by another with electromagnetic switch leading to a strong reduction of the losses and to an increase of the electric motor control reliability. The power train contains an energy recuperation system during the deceleration phases, where the motor functions in generator. The motor is controlled by vector control method maintaining the current Id equal to zero, leading to the maintain of the current in phase with electromotive force, what also leads to the reduction of the energy consumption. A supper-capacity is added in parallel with the energy accumulator leads to an increase of the storage energy capacity. All these factors lead to the increase of the autonomy for a known stocked energy.
