(2024) 2018. “Modeling and Optimization of 144 KVA Transformer for EV Fast Charger Application”. 2018 IEEE MTT-S International Conference on Numerical Electromagnetic and Multiphysics Modeling and Optimization (NEMO). https://doi.org/10.1109/NEMO.2018.8503477.
This paper presents a comparison of the analytical modeling and 3-D Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of a medium frequency, high power transformer for use in the Electric Vehicle (EV) Fast Charger power converter design currently being developed at FREEDM Systems Center. This initial design is then optimized using a generic multi-variable optimization algorithm at 50 kHz. For further optimization, a frequency sweep is completed using the converter constraints to gain an overall optimal design for the power electronics converter.
