A major problem in an isolated DC/DC converters operating at high switching frequencies is the attendant switching losses in the semiconductor devices. This can be reduced by introducing either zero-voltage switching (ZVS) or zero-current switching (ZCS) of the semiconductor switches. This paper deals with the simulation, design, fabrication and experimental evaluation of a novel soft-switching...

This paper presents a new cascaded multilevel inverter topology in asymmetric configuration. Initially general topology is presented and then extended for higher number of stages. In this paper a new cascade diagonal dc source multilevel inverter topology is proposed, which included the increased number of output voltage levels with minimum number of switches as well as with minimum dc voltage ...

The intelligent energy management system is operated automatically to ON and OFF the generating sources as per the load demand. The renewable energy sources used in this energy management system are solar, wind, fuel cell and energy storage element battery as an input source. These renewable energy sources are integrated into the main dc bus through dc-ac converter. Microgrid is basically a gro...

This paper proposed to utilize the DC source from the solar PV. The DC/DC converter is the unidirectional power flow between the solar PV and load, while in existing its bidirectional. The proposed converter becomes compact using wide band gap devices which provide high efficiency and reduces heat generation of the circuit. PSO is used for the switching control for the converter. The converter ...

Various mission-critical applications necessarily require a transformer in switching converters to obtain DC isolation between the converters’ input and output. Since DC-DC converters are the switching devices, these are modeled as hybrid automata. We present hybrid automaton modeling of two main types of transformer isolated DC-DC converters, namely, flyback and forward converters. We have als...

An isolated switched high step up boost DC-DC converter is discussed in this paper. The main objective of this paper is to step up low voltage to very high voltage. This paper mainly initiates at boosting a 30V DC into 240V DC. The discussed converter benefits from the continuous input current. Usually, step-up DC-DC converters are suitable for input whose voltage level is very low. The circuit...
