Objective: - To familiarize with the basic vector control of PMSM and IM drive with
speed/torque control operation. Two-level DC-AC voltage source converter, fed from a DC power
source, would be used for operating the motor.

Objective: - To understand the flow of energy in the power train of EV during various modes of
operation i.e. charging, V2G feeding, motoring and braking. EV would be operated in the
aforementioned modes and power would be measured at different sections of EV.

iv) Forward & backward motoring and regenerative braking of EV consisting of multiple motor-
drives
Objective: - EV must be capable of operating in all four quadrants viz. forward motoring, forward
braking, reverse motoring and reverse braking. This experiment would consider operation of EV
in all four quadrants with necessary PWM and control techniques.
