In this paper interleaved quadratic boost converter with Dickson voltage multiplier is proposed. Photovoltaic system is connected to high power load through the proposed converter. Structure of this high gain interleaved converter comprised of two stages: interleaved quadratic boost converter stage and Dickson voltage multiplier stage. Interleaved quadratic boost converter is a parallel combination of two quadratic boost converter. The interleaving increases frequency of converter that could be filtered using small capacitors, making input current smoother than the current of conventional quadratic boost converter. Thus, interleaved circuit minimizes current ripple present in input current, cascading of voltage multiplier cell increases the gain voltage ratio of converter making it suitable for high power, high voltage gain photo voltaic applications. Stress voltage of the switches and reverse recovery problems gets reduced, thereby reducing EMI problems. 300W prototype capable of increasing 24V input voltage to 400V output voltage is designed and results tested using MATLAB/Simulink software. Hardware prototype is also implemented to verify simulation results. Also, application of this converter in integrated energy storage is demonstrated.

Abstract Interleaved boost converters (IBCs) are cascaded in parallel in most of the applications. This novel approach connects IBC in series cascade. The IBC has an optimal operating duty cycle of 0.5. Normally, photovoltaic source voltage is low because of space constraints. In order to boost the source voltage, a conventional boost converter is replaced with series-cascaded IBC in this paper. The single-stage IBC also boosts the voltage to twice the input voltage. In the proposed converter, output voltage is about four times the input voltage with the same 0.5 duty cycle. A mathematical model is developed and simulated for the proposed work in MATLAB/Simulink platform. The output of the proposed circuit is analysed through fast Fourier transform to know the harmonic content due to the switching. The system is tested for stability with signal-flow graph modelling. The proposed work is realised using hardware and tested to validate the model.

As the power generating stations are located very far from the load centers, there is a necessity to transmit the power through the long transmission lines. The transmission efficiency and voltage profile are poor, due to the large amount of line losses and voltage drop. Thus to improve its performance, the generation of the power has to be done at the vicinity of load centers and is possible through the distributed generation (DG). The DG system consists of a boost converter which increases the dc input voltage obtained from an array of PV cells arranged on the solar panels.In this paper, the hybrid boost converter which is a high gain step-up dc-dc converter is modeled and analyzed for DG applications. The gain of this hybrid converter is D (duty ratio) times more than the normal boost converter and posses the advantages like less ripple current and high efficiency. Also the dynamic performance of the converters is compared in both open and closed loops from the simulation work carried out in MATLAB / Simulink environment.

Many applications (electric vehicles, renewable energies, low-voltage DC grids) require simple, high-power density and low-current ripple-boost converters. Traditional step-up converters are limited when large transformation ratios are involved. In this work is proposed a step-up converter that brings together the characteristics of high gain, low ripple, and high-power density. From the converter proposal, a mathematical analysis of its operation is first performed, including its static transfer function, stress of components, and voltage and current ripples. Furthermore, it provides a design example for an application of Vin = 48 V to Vo = 270 V and 500 W. For its implementation, two different wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductor models have been used, hybrid GaN cascodes and SiC MOSFETs. Finally, the experimental results of the produced prototypes are shown, and the results are discussed.

Voltage Gain

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.

Photo-voltaic (PV) power harvest can have decent efficiency when dealing with high power. When operating with a DC–DC boost converter during the low-power harvest, its efficiency and output voltage are degraded due to excessive losses in the converter components. The objective of this paper is to present a systematic approach to designing an efficient low-power photo-voltaic harvesting topology with an improved efficiency and output voltage. The proposed topology uses a boost converter with and extra inductor in recycled and synchro-recycled techniques in continuous current mode (CCM). By exploiting the non-linearity of the PV cell, it reduces the power loss and using the current stored in the second inductor, it enhances the output voltage and output power simultaneously. Further, by utilizing the Metal Oxide Silicon Field Effect Transistor’s (MOSFET) body diode as a switch, it maintains a minimum hardware, and introduces a negligible impact on the reliability. The test results of the proposed boost converters show that it achieves a decent power and output voltage. Theoretical and experimental results of the proposed topologies with a tested prototype are presented along with a strategy to maximize power and voltage conversion efficiencies and output voltage.
