KY boost converter is the com- bination of KY converter and traditional boost converter. Such a converter has con- tinuous input and output inductor current, different from the traditional boost con- verter. And hence this converter is very suitable for very low-ripple applications. The Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based controller, FUZZY based controller and open loop KY boost converter are designed in MATLAB/Simulink model. The simu- lated results show a reduction in output ripple from 1.18 V of the existing open loop KY boost converter output to 0.54 V in the FUZZY logic controlled converter out- put. Further reduction in output ripple to 0.29 V is achieved in the proposed PSO based converter. The simulated results also show the variation of switching pulses based on the different existing and proposed method.展开更多

The traditional remedy is to impose slope compensation so as to weaken or eliminate this instability. A theoretical principle on the implementation of slope compensation signal is still lacking. Empirical design will induce over compensation frequently, resulting in a large decrease of power factor. In order to tackle this issue, by constructing the discrete-time iterative map of the PFC Boost converter from the viewpoint of bifurcation control theory of nonlinear systems, consequently, the criterion of critical stability for the PFC circuit can be established. Based on this stability criterion, appropriate design of slope compensation can be achieved. Our work indicates that 3 main circuit parameters (i.e. switching cycle, output reference voltage and inductor) determine the effective amplitude design of the slope compensation signal. The results, validated by a large quantity of analytical and numerical studies, show that appropriate slope compensation can be effective in weakening (or controlling) fast-scale bifurcation while maintaining a rather high input power factor.展开更多

A highly perturbed switched boost converter circuit is shown to be efficiently controlled, in a trajectory tracking task for its non-minimum phase output, by means of a suitable linear filter, here addressed as a flat filter.

文摘Due to wide input fluctuation with line frequency of 50 Hz, power-factor-correction (PFC) Boost converters tend to exhibit fast-scale instability over time domain. The traditional remedy is to impose slope compensation so as to weaken or eliminate this instability. A theoretical principle on the implementation of slope compensation signal is still lacking. Empirical design will induce over compensation frequently, resulting in a large decrease of power factor. In order to tackle this issue, by constructing the discrete-time iterative map of the PFC Boost converter from the viewpoint of bifurcation control theory of nonlinear systems, consequently, the criterion of critical stability for the PFC circuit can be established. Based on this stability criterion, appropriate design of slope compensation can be achieved. Our work indicates that 3 main circuit parameters (i.e. switching cycle, output reference voltage and inductor) determine the effective amplitude design of the slope compensation signal. The results, validated by a large quantity of analytical and numerical studies, show that appropriate slope compensation can be effective in weakening (or controlling) fast-scale bifurcation while maintaining a rather high input power factor.

文摘Solar photovoltaic(SPV)modules have a low output voltage and are load-dependent.Therefore,it is critical that the SPV system has an adequate DC-DC converter to regulate and improve the output voltage to get maximum output voltage.To meet load requirements,the voltage must be increased,necessitating the use of energy-efficient power electronic converters.The performance of an SPV system coupled to a high-gain quadratic boost converter(HG-QBC)with a load is investigated in this paper.The suggested HG-QBC for the SPV system at a lower value of duty ratio provides high voltage gain with a boost factor of four times.An analytical comparison is carried out with the various existing boost converters in terms of the components and the boost factor.The issue of locating the maximum power generation point from the SPV system is crucial.As a result,choosing an appropriate maximum power point tracker(MPPT)-based technique to obtain the peak power output of the SPV system under the rapidly varying atmospheric conditions is vital.To determine the highest output power of an SPV system,a hybrid-based MPPT with a neural network assisted by a perturb and observe(P&O)technique is proposed.For the HG-QBC,a comparison of the proposed MPPT with a traditional P&O-based MPPT is illustrated.The comparative analysis takes into account rise time,settling time and voltage ripples.The output voltage and power characteristics of the proposed model are analysed under constant and varying irradiation conditions using MATLAB®/Simulink®.The results of a hybrid-based MPPT show that the oscillations are minimum at the maximum power point with fewer ripples of 0.20%and a settling time of 1.2 s in comparison with the other two techniques.
文摘The multiphase boost DC-DC converter with stable control strategy is presented. Multi- phase boost DC-DC converter is designed for high voltage and high power applications, and could be achieved by the adjustment of voltage doubler rectifiers on the secondary side of high frequency transformers. The stable control strategy for three phase boost DC-DC converter has been utilized during simulation in this study and this strategy can be extend to N-number of phases. The stable control strategy consists of only three voltage loops, which are sufficient for appropriate and efficient operation of three phase boost DC-DC converter. With the stable control strategy, the equal power balance sharing can be obtained between input and output. The stability of control strategy has been evaluated by simulating the multiphase boost DC-DC converter for the same and mismatch turn ratios of high frequency transformers. The simulation result is good and the objective of the strategy is a- chieved.

文摘The high potentiality of integrating renewable energies,such as photovoltaic,into a modern electrical microgrid system,using DC-to-DC converters,raises some issues associated with controller loop design and system stability.The generalized state space average model(GSSAM)concept was consequently introduced to design a DC-to-DC converter controller in order to evaluate DC-to-DC converter performance and to conduct stability studies.This paper presents a GSSAM for parallel DC-to-DC converters,namely:buck,boost,and buck-boost converters.The rationale of this study is that modern electrical systems,such as DC networks,hybrid microgrids,and electric ships,are formed by parallel DC-to-DC converters with separate DC input sources.Therefore,this paper proposes a GSSAM for any number of parallel DC-to-DC converters.The proposed GSSAM is validated and investigated in a time-domain simulation environment,namely a MATLAB/SIMULINK.The study compares the steady-state,transient,and oscillatory performance of the state-space average model with a fully detailed switching model.
