Abstract
A device for controlling a power shunt circuit of a hybrid vehicle, including inverters, including DC sides linked to a DC voltage storage unit and AC sides intended to be linked to polyphase electrical machines. The polyphase electrical machines are able to operate in engine/engine or generator/generator modes. A control unit controls chopping switches of the second inverter in a way that is temporally offset relative to chopping switches of the first inverter in such a case, the control unit of the inverters controlling their chopping switches by pulse width vector modulation.
