Modelling and Predictive Control of a Buck-Boost DC-DC Converter

A predictive current control algorithm for the Buck-Boost DC-DC converter is presented in this paper. The continuous time model of the system is properly introduced, then, by imposing a proper PWM modulation pattern, its discrete time model is achieved. This last one is successfully employed in determining the steady state locus of the Buck-Boost converter, both in CCM （continuous conduction mode） and DCM （discontinuous conduction mode）. A novel continuous time equivalent circuit of the converter is introduced too, with the aim of determining a ripple free representation of the state variables of the system, over both transient and steady state operation. Then, a predictive current control algorithm, suitable in both CCM and DCM, is developed and properly checked by means of computer simulations. The corresponding results have highlighted the effectiveness of the proposed modelling and of the predictive control algorithm, both in CCM and DCM.

Superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL)for fail-safe DC-DC conversion:From power electronic device to micro grid protection

In DC micro grids and networks,DC-DC power converters having a large number of semiconductor-based power electronic devices are usually adopted to interconnect the renewable sources and flexible loads.Most of the semiconductor-based devices suffer from poor fault withstanding abilities,but conventional power electronic protection schemes have the bottlenecks of the time-delay,self-malfunction and mis-judgement.This paper presents a novel solution using the superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL)to protect a power electronic device and extend the usage to a micro grid.This SFCL is actually a self-triggering,recoverable,and passive current limiter,which does not involve any additional circuit hardware and software.Experimental investigations and simulation analyses clarify the feasibility of using this superconductor-based protection scheme to implement the self-acting fail-safe protection of DC-DC converters.Further system-level simulations explore the SFCL to suppress the over-current and stabilize the bus voltage of a photovoltaic based DC micro grid,particularly facing millisecond-level transients and faults.Our experimental and theoretical investigations lay some technical bases to establish a superconductor-semiconductor-coupled interdisciplinary application from the view from the applied superconductivity,to power electronics,and to micro grids.

Evaluation of High Step-up Power Conversion Systems for Large-capacity Photovoltaic Generation Integrated into Medium Voltage DC Grids

With the increase of dc based renewable energy generation and dc loads,the medium voltage dc(MVDC)distribution network is becoming a promising option for more efficient system integration.In particular,large-capacity photovoltaic(PV)-based power generation is growing rapidly,and a corresponding power conversion system is critical to integrate these large PV systems into MVDC power grid.Different from traditional ac grid-connected converters,the converter system for dc grid interfaced PV system requires large-capacity dc conversion over a wide range of ultra-high voltage step-up ratios.This is an important issue,yet received limited research so far.In this paper,a thorough study of dc-dc conversion system for a medium-voltage dc grid-connected PV system is conducted.The required structural features for such a conversion system are first discussed.Based on these features,the conversion system is classified into four categories by series-parallel connection scheme of power modules.Then two existing conversion system configurations as well as a proposed solution are compared in terms of input/output performance,conversion efficiency,modulation method,control complexity,power density,reliability,and hardware cost.In-depth analysis is carried out to select the most suitable conversion systems in various application scenarios.

Analysis and Design of Single Switch Hybrid Step-Up Converter

A Single Switch Hybrid Step-up Converter with high voltage gain, which is suitable for renewable energy system, is proposed in this paper. The proposed converter consists of one switched diode-inductor cell and a capacitor. While switching, both are charged in parallel from the input source and discharged in series to the output. In order to obtain extra voltage gain at lower duty cycle, the voltage multiplier cell is integrated with the proposed converter. The main advantages of the converter are high voltage gain, reduced voltage stress, simple structure and low output voltage ripples. The operating principle and steady state theoretical analysis are presented. A 250 W prototype converter is implemented with 12 V input and 120 V output to verify the design and analysis of this converter and it has an efficiency of over 90% in all operations.

The design and fault ride through control of un-interrupted DC-DC Autotransformer

This paper proposed a novel type of DC-DC converter, termed as un-interrupted DC Autotransformer(un-interrupted DC AUTO), which has the capability to ride through DC fault on either side of the converter without blocking any devices. Besides that, the adequately designed converter retains the advantages of DC AUTO technology, namely reduced investment cost and transmission loss. To begin with, the topology and basic attributes of the un-interrupted DC AUTO are illustrated. Then the design goals and the corresponding design procedures are analyzed. Furthermore, an effective control system is proposed to enable the converter steady operation during both normal and faulted conditions. Finally, a 1000 MW ±320 kV/±640 kV test system is built on PSCAD/EMTDC platform to verify the technical feasibility of the proposed converter and the effectiveness of the control strategy.

Non-isolated stacked bidirectional soft-switching DC-DC converter with PWM plus phase-shift control scheme

In this paper, a non-isolated stacked bidirectional DC-DC converter with zero-voltage-switching(ZVS) is introduced for the high step-up/step-down conversion systems. The extremely narrow turn-on and/or turn-off duty cycle existing in the conventional bidirectional buck-boost converters can be extended due to the stacked module configuration for large voltage conversion ratio applications. Furthermore, the switch voltage stress is halved because of the series connection of half bridge modules. The PWM plus phase-shift control strategy is employed, where the duty cycle is adopted to regulate the voltages between the input and output sides and the phaseshift angle is applied to achieve the power flow regulation.This decoupled control scheme can not only realize seamless bidirectional transition operation, but also achieve adaptive voltage balance for the power switches. In addition, ZVS soft-switching operation for all active switches is realized to minimize the switching losses. Finally, a prototype of 1 kW operating at 100 kHz is built and tested to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed converter and the control strategy.

A Design of Single-Switch Two-Stage DC-DC Converters With PWM And PFM for Off-Grid Solar Power System

In this paper,a single-switch two-stage DC-DC conversion circuit is proposed for an off-grid solar power application.A photovoltaic(PV)panel powers the load and a storage unit(battery)via the proposed circuit.The battery is designed to balance the supply and the demand of power under different irradiation situations.Based on conventional cascaded DC-DC converters,the proposed design is developed with the single switch technique reducing size,cost and power loss.The control scheme in this design is pulse width modulation(PWM)with pulse frequency modulation(PFM).The PWM module is similar to conventional design except its ramp signal with a variable frequency is provided by a resettable integrator.As a result,the PWM and PFM modules regulate the two stages of the proposed circuit separately with the same switching control signal.In this paper,the modes of operation of the circuit are discussed as well as the control schemes.The design process is described along with the circuit analysis and comparisons with conventional design are made as well.A prototype has been built to verify the proposed circuit with simulation and experimental results.
