Control of a BLDC Motor of an Electric Vehicle Powered by a Photovoltaic System based on Fuzzy Logic MPPT (FLC-MPPT)

Abstract: Photovoltaic Systems (PV) represent a viable solution for converting solar energy into electricity without emitting harmful gases. This technology remains highly sought-after in the market, primarily due to its renewable characteristics and the absence of movable components, which renders it a low-maintenance option. This produced energy can be stored in batteries tobe used for example in operating electric vehicles. If the generated voltage is inadequate or requires regulation, a boost converter may be employed or a buck boost To manage energy during storage and discharge to provide the energy needed to run the induction motor. In this paper, we proposed the field-oriented control as an approach for controlling the speed of BLDC Motor drive electrical vehicles to improve the overall effectiveness of the proposed system, The BLDC Motor is powered by battery storage from a photovoltaic system. Furthermore, this work also addresses the specifics of modeling the Fuzzy logic control MPPT (FLC-MPPT) used for the energy management system (PV and batteries), as well as the proposed control approach for the electric vehicle motor, which are subsequently simulated in the MatLab environment.
