초록

This study compares the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control methods of a thermoelectric generator on vehicles. The researchers conduct comparisons on five different MPPT methods, including a fractional open circuit voltage method, a perturbation and observation (P&O) method, an incremental conductance method, a linear extrapolation-based MPPT (LEMPPT) method, and a LEMPPT/P&O hybrid method. These five MPPT methods are theoretically analyzed in detail, and the comparisons are conducted through MATLAB/Simulink simulation results. The comparison outcomes reveal that linear MPPT methods, including LEMPPT and LEMPPT/P&O hybrid methods, are more suitable for a thermoelectric generator on vehicles than the other MPPT methods examined in this work.
