Abstract The paper presents an analytical approach to the determination of power losses in a high-frequency transformer operating in the dual active bridge (DAB). This transformer, having two single-phase transistor bridge inverters, couples two DC circuits that significantly differ in voltages (280 V and 51 V ±20%). Power losses in the core and windings of the planar transformer 5600 VA /100 kHz were calculated taking into account changes in the value and direction of the energy flow between the coupled DC circuits. These circuits represent storage or renewable energy sources and intermediate circuits of the converters used in distributed generation systems. Calculations were performed using the Steinmetz’s and Dowell’s equations. The analytical results have been verified experimentally.


In this paper, a modified structure of two-stage sepic based five-level T-type inverter is presented for photovoltaic applications. The proposed topology consists of a frond-end sepic converter cascaded with full bridge T-type inverter through a high-frequency transformer. The proposed topology owns the merits of high boost output voltage level, modularity, reduced device parts, and better quality of supply. Therefore, a detailed operation of the proposed topology and the level generations using sine pulse width modulation are presented. Finally, the performance of the proposed topology is validated through Matlab simulation and experimental prototype model results

This paper deals with PFC-isolated Zeta converter fed LED drive to overcome the power factor problems. The proposed circuit topology consists of diode bridge rectifier and isolated Zeta converter with high frequency transformer. A single –phase supply is used to feed a DBR followed by a filter to avoid any switching ripple in DBR and the supply system. An isolated Zeta converter is operated to work under DCM mode. This combination of DBR and PFC converter is used to feed a LED drive. This converter is simulated in MATLAB platform. This converter provides better results such as unity power factor and less current harmonic distortion.
