In this thesis a predefined design parameters are used to present theoretical guidelines for design of low voltage, and low power DC-DC converter with high power efficiency and low levels of EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference). This converter is used to alter the DC voltage supplied by the power source. Several DC-DC converters of different types and topologies are described and analyzed. Switc...

A renewable energy source plays an important role in electricity generation. Various renewable energy sources like wind, solar, geothermal, ocean thermal, and biomass can be used for generation of electricity and for meeting our daily energy needs. Energy from the sun is the best option for electricity generation as it is available everywhere and is free to harness. On an average the sunshine h...

In a server power system, a standby converter is required in order to provide the standby output, monitor the system’s status, and communicate with the server power system. Since these functions are always required, losses from the standby converter are produced even though the system operates in normal mode. For these reasons, the losses deteriorate the total efficiency of the system. In this ...

Single-Stage transformerless AC/DC converter received much attention in the universal line application. Unlike the existing converters a new high step-down transformerless single-stage single-switch AC/DC converter is proposed. The topology integrates a buck-buck-boost converter with low intermediate bus and output voltage. The converter utilizes a buck converter as a PFC cell and buck-boost co...

High power and high voltage gain DC-DC converters are key to high-voltage DC (HVDC) power transmission for offshore wind power. This paper presents an isolated ultra-high step-up DC-DC converter in matrix transformer configuration. A flyback-forward converter is adopted as the power cell and the secondary side matrix connection is introduced to increase the power level and to improve fault tole...

This paper discusses the control of flexible microgrids, consisting of a Redox Flow Batteries (RFB) and a new power conditioning system (PCS) for the RFB. Considering the importance of energy storage, this study is essential in power systems that are developed cautiously. RFB is connected to power system by a DC/DC or DC/AC converter to produce a DC voltage. It is very important that this conve...

In this paper, a MSEBC (modified-SEPIC embedded-boost converter) is proposed, which can deal with either utility power or PV (photovoltaic) power to serve as HB-LED (High-Brightness Light-EmittingDiode) driver and battery charger. While connected to utility, the proposed converter can perform PFC (power factor corrector) for universal line input. Once power failure occurs, it can draw energy fr...

-The simulation of a nonlinear controller with power sharing control capabilities for a wind energy system double input buck boost–buck boost converter is presented. A multiple-input DC–DC converter is useful to obtain the regulated output voltage from input power source such as a wind array. Double input DC-DC buck boost converter principle of operation and the equations describing the convert...

Here an improved three-level integrated ac–dc converter is presented. This converter improving or boosting power factor correction. And also this converter topology is advanced than previous ac-dc converters mainly the converter is operating with two independent controllers. An input controller is used to power factor correction and it regulates the dc bus, and the output controller is used to ...
