Abstract
In this paper, the battery charging device using DMFC(Direct Methanol Fuel Cell) for electric bicycle is proposed. In the proposed system, phase-shift full-bridge converter is used as a battery charger by boosting the 12V DMFC output voltage up to 36V. By using the phase-shift technique, the ringing of the transformer is reduced and the efficiency of the converter can be improved. The operation modes of proposed phase-shift full-bridge converter is analyzed and verified by the simulation and the experimental results.
