High gain DC-DC converters are getting popular due to the increased use of renewable energy sources (RESs). Common ground between the input and output, low voltage stress across power switches and high voltage gain at lower duty ratios are desirable features required in any high gain DC-DC converter. DC-DC converters are widely used in DC microgrids to supply power to meet local demands. In this work, a high step-up DC-DC converter is proposed based on the voltage lift (VL) technique using a single power switch. The proposed converter has a voltage gain greater than a traditional boost converter (TBC) and Traditional quadratic boost converter (TQBC). The effect of inductor parasitic resistances on the voltage gain of the converter is discussed. The losses occurring in various components are calculated using PLECS software. To confirm the performance of the converter, a hardware prototype of 200 W is developed in the laboratory. The simulation and hardware results are presented to determine the performance of the converter in both open-loop and closed-loop conditions. In closed-loop operation, a PI controller is used to maintain a constant output voltage when the load or input voltage is changed.

Purpose Control-signal-to-output-voltage transfer function of the conventional boost converter has at least one right-half plane zero (RHPZ) in the continuous conduction mode which can restrict the open-loop bandwidth of the converter. This problem can complicate the control design for the load voltage regulation and conversely, impact on the stability of the closed-loop system. To remove this positive zero and improve the dynamic performance, this paper aims to suggest a novel boost topology with a step-up voltage gain by developing the circuit diagram of a conventional boost converter. Design/methodology/approach Using a transformer, two different pathways are provided for a classical boost circuit. Hence, the effect of the RHPZ can be easily canceled and the voltage gain can be enhanced which provides conditions for achieving a smaller working duty cycle and reducing the voltage stress of the power switch. Using this technique makes it possible to achieve a good dynamic response compared to the classical boost converter. Findings The observations show that the phase margin of the proposed boost converter can be adequately improved, its bandwidth is largely increased, due to its minimum-phase structure through RHPZ cancellation. It is suitable for fast dynamic response applications such as micro-inverters and fuel cells. Originality/value The introduced method is analytically studied via determining the state-space model and necessary criteria are obtained to achieve a minimum-phase structure. Practical observations of a constructed prototype for the voltage conversion from 24 V to 100 V and various load conditions are shown.

Abstract Electric vehicles are the future of mobility solutions. The electric vehicles are driven by an electric motor with the help of a power electronic interface. The power electronic interface needs to be designed in an efficient way both in mechanical and electrical aspects. This paper proposes the concept of design, simulation and analysis of a 10 kW Multi-Device Interleaved DC-DC Boost Converter (MDIBC) to drive a 4 kW Induction Motor. The motor is driven from the MDIBC through an inverter with SPWM technique. The variation in DC link voltage due to motor is controlled and stabilized to give a constant DC of 400 V. MDIBC consists of semi-controlled switches topology excited by Phase Shifted PWM technique to reduce the ripple current in interleaving inductors. The dual loop control methodology using PI controller is adopted to reduce the ripple in input inductor current and DC link voltage. The open loop simulation and closed loop simulation are done in MATLAB Simulink environment. The simulation results show that the overshoots and steady state error in inductor currents and output voltage are reduced in addition with reduction in current and voltage ripples.

<p>This Work deals with design, modeling and simulation of parallel cascaded buck boost converter inverter based closed loop controlled solar system. Two buck boost converters are cascaded in parallel to reduce the ripple in DC output. The DC from the solar cell is stepped up using boost converter. The output of the boost converter is converted to 50Hz AC using single phase full bridge inverter. The simulation results of open loop and closed loop systems are compared.

High voltage gain dc-dc converters plays an major role in many modern industrialized applications like PV and fuel cells, electrical vehicles, dc backup systems (UPS, inverter), HID (high intensity discharge) lamps. As usual boost converter experiences a drawback of obtaining a high voltage at maximum duty cycle. Hence in order to increase the voltage gain of boost converter, this paper discusses about the advanced boost converter using solar power application. By using this technique, boost converter attains a high voltage which is ten times greater than the input supply voltage. The output voltage can be further increased to more than ten times the supply voltage by using a parallel capacitor and a coupled inductor. The voltage stress across the switch can be reduced due to high output voltage. The Converter is initially operated in open loop and then it is connected with closed loop. More over the fuzzy logic controller is used for the ripple reduction.

Peak current-mode (PCM) control has been a very popular control method in power electronic converters. The small-signal modeling of the dynamics associated with PCM control has turned out to be extremely challenging. Most of the modeling attempts have been dedicated to the converters operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) and just a few to the converters operating in discontinuous operation mode (DCM). The DCM modeling method published in 2001 was proven recently to be very accurate when applied to a buck converter. This paper provides the small-signal models for a boost converter and analyses for the first time its real dynamic behavior in DCM. The objectives of this paper are as follows: (i) to provide the full-order dynamic models for the DCM-operated PCM-controlled boost converter; (ii) to analyze the accuracy of the full and reduced-order dynamic models; and iii) to verify the validity of the high-frequency extension applied in the DCM-operated PCM-controlled buck converter in the case of the boost converter. It is also shown that the DCM-operated boost converter can operate only in even harmonic modes, similar to all the CCM-operated PCM-controlled converters. In the case of the DCM-operated PCM-controlled buck converter, its operation in the odd harmonic modes is the consequence of an unstable pole in its open-loop power-stage dynamics.
