Abstract :
PHEV/EV DC charging infrastructure attracts more and more attention recently. High power isolated bi-directional DC-DC converters provide galvanic isolation, V2G capability and reduce the cost and footprint of the system. Maintaining high power efficiency in wide vehicle battery pack voltage range is required. Three full bridge based high power bi-directional DC-DC converters are conceptually designed for this application and their advantages and disadvantages are addressed. Experimental test bench is built and efficiency evaluation for bi-directional operation is reported.
