Abstract

Due to the negative incremental impedance of constant power loads (CPLs), many undesirable issues, such as the oscillations or even possible collapse of the main dc bus voltage, may occur, which may significantly degrade the system stability of electrical vehicles (EVs). This article presents a natural switching surface (NSS) fast transient boundary control (FTBC) based stabilization solution for EVs with dual active bridge (DAB) converters as the main power interface. Based on the mathematical models of multiple NSSs and characteristics of CPL, the proposed FTBC control can achieve stable operation of DAB converters feeding CPLs and fast dynamic response irrespective of operating stages, such as the startup, sudden voltage, and power reference changing conditions. Compared with other strategies, such as load shedding, the proposed FTBC has no additional requirements for hardware, which is cost-effective. The analytical derivation of the proposed algorithm under the CPL condition is presented together with simulation and experimental evaluations, which validate that the proposed FTBC is capable of achieving two times faster start-up process and at least 33% dynamic response improvement compared with proportional integrator closed-loop control while eliminating the dc-bias current and guaranteeing the CPL stability by regulating the dynamic trajectories of DAB converters in the geometric domain.
