Some industrial applications require high step-up and step-down voltage gain. The transformer less buck-boost converter has high voltage gain than that of traditional buck-boost converter without extreme duty cycles. A transformer less buck-boost converter with simple structure is obtained by inserting an additional switched network into the traditional buck-boost converter. The two power switches of the buck-boost converter operate synchronously. The operating principles of the buck-boost converter operating in continuous conduction modes are presented. A new buck- boost converter is presented by providing a feedback to the converter. By this, constant output voltage can be maintained under varying load conditions in both buck and boost operation. The output voltage of 40V (step—up mode)/8V (step down mode) is obtained with input voltage 18V and the outcomes are approved through recreation using PSIM MODEL.

And Performance

<p>In the last few years, the non-isolated dc converters involving high voltage gain with adequate performance are becoming quite popular in industrial applications. This is resulting in high voltage and current stress on the power device (switches and diodes), as well as a limited output voltage with a high duty cycle. This paper proposes a multi-phase non-isolated boost converter that uses capacitor clamping to increase output voltage while reducing stress across the power device. There are two stages in the proposed converter (first stage is three inductors and three switches and the second stage is clamper circuit of three capacitors and three diodes). The proposed converter is high voltage gain, with low voltage stress through switches transistors. To justify the theoretical analysis, the concept was validated through mathematical analysis and by simulation using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results carried out the results permit the converter behavior and performance to be accurately.</p>

Simulation Results

Boost converters are needed in many applications which require the output voltage to be higher than the input voltage. Recently, boost type converters have been applied for industrial applications, and hence it has become an interesting topic of research. Many researchers proposed different impedance source converters with their unique advantages as having a high voltage gain in a small range of duty cycle ratio. However, the thermal behaviour of the semiconductor devices and passive elements in the impedance source converter is an important issue from a reliability point of view and it has not been investigated yet. Therefore, this paper presents a comparison between the conventional boost, the Z-source, and the Y-source converters based on a thermal evaluation of the semiconductors. In addition, the three topologies are also compared with respect to their efficiency. In this study the results show that the boost converter has higher efficiency than the Zsource and Y-source converter for these specific voltage gain of 2 and 4. The operational principle, mathematical derivations, simulation results and final comparisons are presented in this paper.

The output voltage from the sustainable energy like photovoltaic (PV) arrays and fuel cells will be at less amount of level. This must be boost considerably for practical utilization or grid connection. A conventional boost converter will provides low voltage gain while Quadratic boost converter (QBC) provides high voltage gain. QBC is able to regulate the output voltage and the choice of second inductor can give its current as positive and whereas for boost increases in the voltage will not able to regulate the output voltage. It has low semiconductor device voltage stress and switch usage factor is high. Analysis and design modeling of Quadratic boost converter is proposed in this paper. A power with 50 W is developed with 18 V input voltage and yield 70 V output voltage and the outcomes are approved through recreation utilizing MATLAB/SIMULINK MODEL.

DC-DC converters are playing an important role in designing of Electric Vehicles, integration of solar cells and other DC applications. Contemporary high power applications use multilevel converters that have multi stage outputs for integrating low voltage sources. Conventional DC-DC converters use single source and have complex structure while using for Hybrid Energy Systems. This paper proposes a multi-input, multi-output DC-DC converter to produce constant output voltage at different input voltage conditions. This topology is best suitable for hybrid power systems where the output voltage is variable due to environmental conditions. It reduces the requirement of magnetic components in the circuit and also reduces the switching losses. The proposed topology has two parts namely multi-input boost converter and level-balancing circuit. Boost converter increases the input voltage and Level Balancing Circuit produce Multi output. Equal values of capacitors are used in Level Balancing Circuit to ensure the constant output voltage at all output stages. The operating modes of each part are given and the design parameters of each part are calculated. Performance of the proposed topology is verified using MATLAB/Simulink simulation which shows the correctness of the analytical approach. Hardware is also presented to evaluate the simulation results.

High Voltage Gain

Direct current to direct current (DC/DC) converters are required to have higher voltage gains in some applications for electric vehicles, high-voltage level charging systems and fuel cell electric vehicles. Therefore, it is greatly important to carry out research on high voltage gain DC/DC converters. To improve the efficiency of high voltage gain DC/DC converters and solve the problems of output voltage ripple and robustness, this paper proposes a double-boost DC/DC converter. Based on the small-signal model of the proposed converter, a double closed-loop controller with voltage–current feedback and input voltage feedforward is designed. The experimental results show that the maximum efficiency of the proposed converter exceeds 95%, and the output voltage ripple factor is 0.01. Compared with the traditional boost converter and multi-phase interleaved DC/DC converter, the proposed topology has certain advantages in terms of voltage gain, device stress, number of devices, and application of control algorithms.

The maximum boost controller furnishes voltage boost and maintain constant voltage stress across power switches, which provides better output voltage with variation of duty cycles.

Vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) can be operated in any direction of wind speed, but it has low rotation. To improve the performance of VAWT in which low rotation, this paper presents a simple control strategy of VAWT using a DC-DC boost converter to tap constant voltage in a standalone application. The main objective of this research is to maintain a constant output voltage of converter despite variation input voltage affected by variable wind speed. A simple proportional-integral (PI) controller has been used for a DC-DC boost converter and tested in MATLAB-Simulink environment, with the closed-loop system of the converter maintain constant output voltage although the wind speed is kept changing. The PI controller obtains the feedback from the output voltage of the boost converter to produce the correct pulse width modulation (PWM) duty cycle and trigger the metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) following the reference voltage of the turbine. This system has suppressed the value of overshoot and increased the efficiency of wind turbines as 34 %.

High Voltage Gain

The interest toward the application of fuel cells is increasing in the last years mainly due to the possibility of highly efficient decentralized clean energy generation. The output voltage of fuel-cell stacks is generally below 50 V. Consequently, low-power applications with high output voltage require a high gain for proper operation. A zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) dc–dc converter with high voltage gain is proposed for fuel cell as a front-end converter. It consists of a ZVS boost converter stage and a ZVS half-bridge converter stage and two stages are merged into a single stage. The ZVS boost converter stage provides a continuous input current and ZVS operation of the power switches. The ZVS half-bridge converter stage provides a high voltage gain. The principle of operation and system analysis are presented. Theoretical analysis and simulation result of the proposed converter were verified.
