This paper focuses on the study of DC-to-DC converters, which are suitable for low-voltage high-power applications. The output voltages generated by renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic arrays and fuel cell stacks are generally low and required to be increased to high voltage levels. Development of DC-to-DC converters, which provide high step-up voltage conversion ratios with high effi...

This paper presents a photovoltaic system as a standalone system. The proposed system consists of photovoltaic (PV) module, battery energy storage system (BESS), high frequency transformer, and multilevel inverter (MLI). The MLI consists of two H-bridge single phase inverter per arm (phase) with unequal dc voltages which needs 6 isolated dc sources for the conventional MLI. The relative values ...

This work examines a series resonant DC/DC optimal trajectory controlled converter during operation above resonant frequency, taking into account the influence of the snubbers and matching transformer. We obtain expressions for the load characteristics, boundary curves between possible modes and limits of the soft commutation area. Computer simulation and experimental observation confirm the th...

This paper presents the simulation of new shootthrough control methods for double stage quasi based Dc/Dc converters with high frequency stepup isolation transformer using matlab Simulink. The major goal is increase efficiency and also increase the stage of Quasi. The new shootthrough technique is used for inversion purpose this reduces the un equal switching frequencies of transistor in double...

This paper includes modeling and simulation of 180 MW units of pumped storage power plant with Variable speed machines. In this method, voltage source inverters are used instead of traditional cyclo-converters. This paper aims to control the voltage source inverters and maintain DC voltage at a constant value. AC/ DC/ AC converter is used in system configuration structure in order to control an...
