Software development of on-board power electronics equipment using model-based design methodology

Model-Based Design (MBD) method is applied to power electronics device software development to overcome the problem of low efficiency in manual programming. The concept of Model-Based Design and several common development platforms are introduced. Based on tools in Simulink, an on-board charger control software is developed. Meanwhile the hardware platform, the model building, the model validation and the automatic code generation are also described. Experiments are carried out in the hardware platform to verify the correctness and feasibility of the codes.They are helpful for the software development of power electronics equipments.
