Abstract
This article presents an analysis of implementation of a solar cell system within
an electric vehicle (EV), putting emphasis on the energy efficiency and control
of energy flows. In the considered system topology, interaction between the
low-voltage (LV) photovoltaic system (PV system) and the high-voltage (HV)
traction system is organized through the energy medium in the form of a buffer
battery. Both system structure and control algorithm were designed taking into
account actual efficiency characteristics of involved components in order to
attain maximum energy performance of the entire system. Efficiency analysis of
the PV system components allowed substantiating an idea of using a LV buffer
battery, as well as proposing PV array configuration preferable from the energy
point of view. Analysis also allowed to draw the essential principles for
elaboration of the control algorithm, which provides maximum efficiency of
energy distribution in the PV system. The article gives a description of the
mathematical model developed for analyzing system operation and dynamics of its
key parameters. The model calculates vehicle dynamics and essential variables of
the powertrain components (batteries, traction electric drive, voltage
converters, and solar cells). Control algorithm regulating energy flows within
the PV system was implemented as a part of said model. To simulate actual
operating conditions of PV cells, a model of the solar irradiance (SI) was
employed considering specified location, season, daytime, and weather (i.e.,
clouds). Simulations were performed taking into account typical operating
regimes of the vehicle including different levels of the auxiliary power that
feeds LV onboard consumers.
