Asymmetrical DC-DC Converter with Fault Tolerant Operation Capability for Distributed Generation

As the costs of manufacturing photovoltaic (PV) panels continue to decrease, the use of PV-based solar energy systems is seen in rise across the globe. This paper proposes an asymmetrical DC-DC converter for standalone solar energy systems. The converter is developed to control modularized PV panels with a combination of soft-switching, flyback-forward, high-step-up voltage ratio, and fault tol...

Fault Tolerant Control by Compensating Partial Faults

In this paper, fault tolerant compensation for non-linear plants is addressed. Soft fault detection and isolation is performed for a partial sensor fault detection. New method is proposed that combine model predictive controllers with fuzzy Takagi-Sugeno models. An example is presented that illustrates the functionality of the proposed method. Keywords— Fault tolerant control, Fault detection a...

PWM Control of Asymmetrical Converter Fed Switched Reluctance Motor Drive

Abstract— The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) drive has evolved as an alternative to conventional motors in variable speed drives because of advantages like simple and rugged structure, absence of rotor winding, adaptability to harsh environments and high speed operation. This paper presents the speed control of Asymmetrical converter fed 4 phase 8/6 Switched Reluctance Motor drive using PWM co...

Five Level Dc-dc Converter with Asymmetrical Control Strategy for High Power Applications

In this paper an asymmetrical duty cycle control strategy was proposed to the TPTL dc/dc converter. The modified converter remains all the advantages of original control strategy; meanwhile, soft-switching can be achieved using the energy stored in output filter inductance and leakage inductances of transformers (or resonant inductances).Three-phase three-level (TPTL) dc/dc converter has the ad...
