Certain investigations on charging control of plug in hybrid electric vehicle

Abstract

In this research Coordinated charging of Plug in Hybrid Electric newlineVehicle (PHEV) in a grid and efficient battery charging controller are newlineanalyzed using various algorithms.The PHEV has become passion today for its less emission of newlinegasoline and reduced fuel price since the transportation segment is a vital newlineconsumer of fossil fuel and discharges a high quantity of pollution.PHEVs newlinethat could make a trip up to 60 miles on a battery charge on electric energy newlinestored in their batteries without a recharge could diminish CO2 emissions by newline50% and petroleum utilization by over 75%. The main aspect differentiating newlinethe PHEV from the Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) is the ability to plug the newlinePHEV into the grid and charge the battery pack using grid electricity. newlineA key factor to understand is that the power demand on the grid newlinefrom charging PHEVs will be a function of the voltage and amperage of the newlineconnection to the grid. The capacity of the battery will then determine the newlinelength of time it will take to recharge the battery, gives the connection newlinestrength.Unexpected PHEV load in a grid increases the load to the grid and newlinemay cause a voltage drop in a grid. Magnitude of voltage in a grid is the main newlineparameter in deciding the quality of power delivered to the consumer. newlineCoordinated charging in the grid is required to charge the PHEV in order to newlinemaintain the quality of electricity from the grid. The coordination of the newlinecharging is possible to control remotely in order to reallocate the demand to newlineperiods of lower load expenditure and thus eliminating higher peaks in newlineivconsumption of electricity. The coordinated charging of PHEV is proposed newlineusing a dynamic programming method to balance the load demand in the grid. newline newline
