In working with an EE class at t local college, we are attempting to design a power circuit for a hybrid Electric vehicle to interface between a 240VAC 60Hz generator and a 240VC (nominal) battery pack.
The generator & AC/DC converter would be switched in parallel with the battery pack to enable hybrid operation, and switched out for full battery operation. The basic requirements are:
Input: 240VAC, 50A
Output: 280VDC, 50A
Power Factor Correction
High Efficiency ( >85%)
Status output(s)
Enable Control input.
Can anyone help guide us into the appropriate approach and components?
Thanks,
John
