Modeling and Analyzing Multiport Isolation Transformer Capacitive Components for Onboard Vehicular Power Conditioners

Modeling and Analyzing Multiport Isolation Transformer Capacitive Components for Onboard Vehicular Power Conditioners Modern electric-powered vehicles include several sources and loads. This paper extends the idea of introducing multiple sources and loads into an onboard vehicular integrated power system. The proposed power conditioning system is formed around a multiwinding integrated transformer. Both inductive and capacitive elements of this magnetic component affect the power conditioning stages of the system. This paper proposes an experimental transformer modeling procedure that includes the inductive and capacitive parameters. A mathematical procedure is developed, simplifying this more detailed experimental model of the multiwinding transformer into a Π RLC circuit that can be utilized in the system transient analysis. The modeling method is applied to a three-winding transformer and is verified through simulations and experiments.
