Indirect Output Voltage Control in Negative Output Elementary Super Lift Luo Converter Using PIC plus FLC in Discontinuous Conduction Mode

In this paper, the design of a proportional integral controller (PIC) plus fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for the negative output elementary super lift Luo converter (NOESLLC) operated in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) is presented. In spite of the many benefits viz. the high voltage transfer gain, the high efficiency, and the reduced inductor current and the capacitor voltage ripples, it natured with non-minimum phase. This characteristic makes the control of NOESLLC cumbersome. Any attempt of direct controlling the output voltage may erupt to instability. To overcome this problem, indirect regulation of the output voltage based on the two-loop controller is devised. The savvy in the inductor current control improves the dynamic response of the output voltage. The FLC is designed for the outer (voltage) loop while the inner (current) loop is controlled by the PIC. For the developed ?19.6 V NOESLLC, the dynamic performances for different perturbations (line, load and component variations) are obtained for PIC plus FLC and compared with PIC plus PIC. The study of two cases is performed at various operating regions by developing the MATLAB/Simulink model.

The design and analysis of a fuel cell vehi-cle-to-grid(FCV2G)system with a high voltage conver-sion interface is proposed.The system aims to maximize the utilization of fuel cell vehicles(FCVs)as distributed energy resources,allowing them to actively participate in the energy market.The proposed FCV2G system has FCVs,power electronics interfaces,and the electrical grid.The power electronics interfaces are responsible for con-verting the low-voltage output of the fuel cell stack into high-voltage DC power,and ensuring efficient power transfer between the FCVs and the grid.To optimize the operation of the FCV2G system,the momentum search algorithm(MSA)is employed.By applying MSA,the FCV2G system can achieve optimal power dispatch,con-sidering factors such as energy efficiency,grid stability,and economic feasibility.The proposed method is tested in MATLAB.The best MSA and dynamic load profile solu-tions are run for 24 h and the results show that 100%import of FCVs 51.0%more than 100%electric vehicle.Peak-cutting and vehicle-to-grid service revenue are 30.5%and 95.0%greater,respectively.Low discharge loss,high capacity,and high discharge power are the main advantages of FCVs.The benchmark FCVs ratio of 15%is used for sensitivity analysis.The findings reveal that the overall advantages of FCV2G are improved.Index Terms—Continuous conduction mode,DC-DC converter,discontinuous conduction mode,fuel cell vehi-cle,utility-grids,vehicle-to-grid.

High efficiency and low electromagnetic interference boost DC–DC converter

A synchronous boost DC-DC converter with an adaptive dead time control （DTC） circuit and antiringing circuit is presented. The DTC circuit is used to provide adjustable dead time and zero inductor current detection for power transistors and therefore, a high efficiency is achieved by minimizing power losses, such as the shoot-through current loss, the body diode conduction loss, the charge-sharing loss and the reverse inductor current loss. Simultaneously, a novel anti-ringing circuit controlled by the switching sequence of power transistors is developed to suppress the ringing when the converter enters the discontinuous conduction mode （DCM） for low electromagnetic interference （EMI） and additional power savings. The proposed converter has been fabricated in a 0.6 #m CDMOS technology. Simulation and experimental results show that the power efficiency of the boost converter is above 81% under different load currents from 10 to 250 mA and a peak efficiency of 90% is achieved at about 100 mA. Moreover, the ringing is easily suppressed by the anti-ringing circuit and therefore the EMI noise is attenuated.
