Abstract

The demand for electric vehicles is ever-increasingand as such, there needs to be an efficient and easy way to chargetheir batteries. Aiming to simplify the use of chargers this reporthas tackled the challenge of developing a prototype for charginga Formula Student Electric Vehicle. This prototype was namedCharge Controller and is what a user will interact with whencharging the vehicle’s battery. In this project, a new architecturefor the charging process has been designed for both hardware andsoftware. Initial tests prove that the charging of the vehicle canbe done in a simple manner. The hardware has been designed,produced, partially assembled and partially tested. The softwarehas been tested using a development board which demonstratesthat the design works. Efterfrågan på elfordon ökar ständigt och därför måste det finnas ett effektivt och enkelt sätt att ladda batterierna. För att förenkla användningen av laddare har man i denna rapport tagit sig an utmaningen att utveckla en prototyp för att ladda ett elfordon från Formula Student. Denna prototyp fick namnet Charge Controller och är det som användaren kommer att interagera med när fordonets batteri laddas. I detta projekt har en ny arkitektur för laddningsprocessen utformats för både hårdvara och mjukvara. De första testerna visar att laddningen av fordonet kan göras på ett enkelt sätt. Hårdvaran har konstruerats, tillverkats, delvis monterats och delvis testats. har testats med hjälp av ett utvecklingskort, vilket visar att designen fungerar.
