SYSTEMS FOR OPERATING MOTORS IN ELECTRIC VEHICLES AND METHODS OF OPERATING THE SAME

In case of EVs, there may be multiple motors, corresponding number of components and connectors, cooling systems, and wiring harness for each motor for various purposes. Based on that, the components have to be packed in the limited space available in the vehicle. Embodiments herein disclose methods and systems for operating motors in electric vehicles in an independent manner using a single Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), wherein the VFD can operate based on the application requirements such as traction alone, PTO alone, traction and PTO of lesser power requirement, traction and PTO of rated power requirement and traction and PTO of more than rated power for shorter duration.
