Technical FAQs 4

What is an electric vehicle inverter?

An inverter is a device that converts direct current (DC), which is supplied from a battery, into alternating current (AC). A motor in an electric vehicle runs on this alternating current, which thus drives the wheels. To improve overall energy efficiency of the electric vehicle, the energy loss of the inverter should be reduced to the minimum.

Do electric vehicles use multilevel inverters?

Although the use of multilevel inverters for traction applications has been the subject of numerous articles, not all forms of electric transportation have made use of these inverters. Two-level structures are used in the drive systems of trucks, buses, and low-voltage electric vehicles.

Why do electric motors need inverters?

Electric motors can deliver instantaneous torque from a standstill (0 RPM) and maintain efficiency at high RPMs, unlike the narrow band of rotations per minute (RPM) ICEs are capable of maintaining. Inverters play an important role in regulating the speed and torque of electric motors which leads to better vehicle performance and efficiency.

How does a power inverter work?

It should be noted that this conversion happens because the wheels driving electric motors require AC electrical energy while batteries have DC electrical energy. Thus, a power inverter acts as a bridge between the battery and the electric motor of a vehicle by facilitating the efficient movement of electricity from one point to another.
