A Comprehensive Review of Machine-Integrated Electric Vehicle Chargers

Electric Vehicles are becoming increasingly popular due to their environment friendly operation. As the demand for electric vehicles increases, it has become quite important explore charging strategies. Since and traction do not normally occur simultaneously power electronics converters both operations have some similarities, practice of integrating systems is popular. These types chargers termed ‘Integrated Chargers’. The aim this paper review available literature on integrated present a critical analysis pros cons different architectures. Integrated with three-phase permanent magnet synchronous machines, multi-phase machines switched reluctance were compared. challenges published future aspect work been discussed.
