Abstract

In the former times, IC engines were used for transportation by most of the vehicles. But due to the depletion of fossil fuels day to day, the world is moving towards the Electric Vehicles (EVs) to overcome this problem. Electric Vehicles have higher efficiency and weight/power ratio. In general, DC motors were used in electric vehicles. The DC motors could not meet the requirements of customer needs because of its low speed range. In the recent studies, an AC Induction motor has several advantages over DC motors because of its robustness, high speed range, and efficiency and weight/power ratio. This paper presents the performance analysis of AC Induction motor when fed with the Single-Phase Inverter. The gate pulses are given by using Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) technique. The results are then compared with the performance of DC motor using MATLAB/SIMULINK.
