Abstract

A novel single input multioutput (SIMO) output DC-DC converter with circular capacitors is intended to function with a single independent source to create numerous transmissions to regulate the speed at the same switching intervals. A novel single input multi output (SIMO) output DC-DC converter employing circular capacitors is designed to work with a single independent source to create numerous transmissions. The proposed converter generates 7 outputs in total, with 4 outputs generated simultaneously for forward operation (speed transmission) using the preferred source (fuel cell/battery) and 3 other different outputs used for regenerative transmissions, with the battery being the preferred storage device. This converter can control the speed of an electric vehicle (EV) by using the SIMO is output voltage to regulate the vehicle is speed, allowing for higher accelerations and decelerations with minimal energy loss and degradation of the main battery pack. It can also be used to power electronic components such as LED lights, audio systems, and mobile charging etc. The energy recovered during regenerative braking is used to charge the battery via a buck/boost operation for varied speed transmission. In addition, simulation, modelling, and analysis are used to validate the proposed system. It is intended for a fixed voltage of 12 V and output voltages ranging from 12 to 48 V. The PSIM simulation tool is used to validate the system. The validation demonstrates the suggested converter is good evidence in both braking and regenerative braking operations.
