    • TECHNICAL FIELD
  • The present disclosure relates to a control system and a method for an on-board battery charger (OBC) of a vehicle, and more particularly, to a control system and a method for an OBC of a vehicle for generating a DC link voltage instruction through a proportional integral control that regards, as an instruction, a resonance switching frequency determined by a resonance capacitance and a resonance inductance in an LLC converter and allowing the switching frequency of the LLC converter to operate at a resonance frequency, thus enhancing efficiency of the OBC.

  • An LLC converter, as a resonant-type PWM converter, hardwarely uses a switching method for enhancing efficiency. However, a conventional non-resonant-type PWM converter uses a method for controlling output voltage and current by adjusting a duty, while the LLC resonant-type PWM converter uses a method for controlling output voltage and current by adjusting a switching frequency.

Furthermore, conventionally, since the DC link voltage instruction was generated by a map extraction, there was needed the step of checking the switching frequency in all intervals of the output voltage and the output current, and therefore, inevitable problems of additional manpower and cost may exist.
  • Accordingly, there has been needed a solution that allows the switching frequency of the LLC converter to operates at the resonance frequency and solves these problems.

  • Referring to FIG. 4, a control method for an OBC of a vehicle according to one embodiment of the present disclosure may comprise receiving an output current instruction value and an output current sensing value of an LLC converter and outputting a switching frequency of the LLC converter (S100); and receiving the outputted switching frequency of the LLC converter and a resonance frequency of a resonant circuit in the LLC converter and adjusting an input terminal voltage of the LLC converter so that the switching frequency of the LLC converter becomes the resonance frequency (S500).
  • The outputting of the switching frequency of the LLC converter (S100) receives an output voltage instruction of the LLC converter and extracts the output current instruction value, and receives the extracted output current instruction value and the output current sensing value and outputs the switching frequency of the LLC converter through a proportional integral control (PI control).
  • The adjusting of the input terminal voltage of the LLC converter (S500) receives the outputted switching frequency and the resonance frequency of the resonant circuit in the LLC converter and outputs the voltage instruction value of the input terminal of the LLC converter so that the switching frequency becomes the resonance frequency (S300); and outputs an input current instruction value flowing through an inductor in a power factor correction converter through a proportional integral control (PI control) with respect to the outputted voltage instruction value of the input terminal of the LLC converter and an output voltage sensing value of the power factor correction converter. And, the adjusting of the input terminal voltage of the LLC (S500) receives a value multiplying the outputted input current instruction value of the RMS by an input voltage sensing value of an external AC power source and the input current sensing value flowing through the inductor of the power factor correction converter and outputs a switching duty of the power factor correction converter controller through a proportional integral control (PI control) (S500). A DC link voltage instruction, by repetitive control, indicating the output voltage of the power factor correction converter controller generated by the outputted switching duty finally allows the switching frequency of the LLC converter to operate at the resonance frequency. As a result, it is possible to enhance efficiency of the OBC; by outputting the DC link voltage instruction through the controller, no additional manpower due to an instruction map extraction and the like is required and cost is saved.
  • The control method for the OBC of the vehicle according to one embodiment of the present disclosure may, in the outputting of the voltage instruction value of the input terminal of the LLC converter (S300), sum up the outputted voltage instruction value of the input terminal of the LLC converter and the value multiplying the output voltage sensing value of the LLC converter by the gain value and output the voltage instruction value of the input terminal of the LLC converter.
  • As a result, it is advantageous to reduce burden of a PI control and obtain a stable response, by summing up the outputted voltage instruction value of the input terminal of the LLC converter and the value that multiplies the output voltage sensing value of the LLC converter by the gain value and outputting the voltage instruction value of the input terminal of the LLC converter. And the gain value (K) may be determined by a turn ratio (Np:Ns) of a transformer in the LLC converter 30 and other factors.
  • As described above, the control system and method for the OBC of the vehicle according to various embodiments of the present disclosure generate the DC link voltage instruction through a proportional integral control that regards, as an instruction, the resonance switching frequency determined by the resonance capacitance and the resonance inductance of the LLC converter and allow the switching frequency of the LLC converter to operate at the resonance frequency, thus enhancing efficiency of the OBC.
  • Furthermore, no additional manpower due to an instruction map extraction and the like is required and cost is saved by outputting the DC link voltage instruction through the controller.
  • Although various embodiments of the present disclosure have been described for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope and spirit of the disclosure as disclosed in the accompanying claims.
