A 22 kW on-board charger for automotive applications based on a modular design
Abstract
In this paper a 22 kW on-board charger for electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles is proposed. To achieve high quantities of devices, a fully modular circuit and control structure is chosen. The circuit arrangement consists of three identical phase units (7.4 kW), which are comprised of two identical (3.7 kW) base units. The proposed charger is implemented and has a volume of 11.1 liters and a weight of 12 kg. The experimental result indicates an efficiency of more than 94 percent over the full battery voltage range at an input voltage of 230 Vac. The output voltage for full load and best efficiency varies from 315-395 V.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
