Design of a MIPEC (Multiple-Input Power Electronic Converter) for hybrid vehicles. It is meant to be used in an electric vehicle propulsion system that includes a fuel cell generator, an ultracapacitors tank and a battery unit. The whole system is controlled via DSP.

Simulation of a resonant MIPEC (Multiple-Input Power Electronic Converter) for hybrid vehicles (under MATLAB/SIMULINK).

Vector Control of a three phase Induction Motor. A 5 horsepower, 230V, 60Hz, 4 pole three phase Squirrel Cage Induction motor was modeled in the d-q-0 reference frame using MATLAB/SIMULINK. Unlike a “black box” motor model presented in most papers, this model allowed access to all motor parameters which can be varied to observe changes in response. A vector controller was used to control the speed of the motor.
