Abstract

This paper deals with the approach of integrating a CSI into the power train of a BEV using a nouveau control strategy. The proposed control strategy for CSI provides a better harmonic performance of the electrical machine and is therefore a beneficial advantage for the system performance. Using a test setup especially designed for experimental validation of CSI the introduced control strategy is proved with experimental results. Based on the control strategy a system simulation of an IPMSM drive with CSI is implemented. A direct comparison of the impacts on system performance between VSI and CSI is conducted.
