This paper proposes a novel hybrid converter topology suitable for electric vehicle on-board battery chargers, which is a combination of the full-bridge (FB) and half-bridge (HB) LLC circuits. A full load controllability under wide output voltage range can be achieved with a small resonant inductance, which increases the efficiency and lowers the size and cost. Simulation results are shown to evaluate the dynamic performance of the proposed converter.

Recently, a fuel cell is remarkable for new generation system. The fuel cell generation system converts the chemical energy of a fuel directly into electrical energy. The fuel cell generation is characterized by low voltage and high current. For connecting to utility, it needs both a step up converter and an inverter. The step up converter makes DC link and the inverter changes DC to AC. In this paper, full bridge converter and the single phase inverter are designed and installed for fuel cell. Simulation and experiment verify that fuel cell generation system could be applied for the distributed generation. In this paper, the 1.5kW active clamp current-fed full bridge converter employing MOSFETs is operated to discharge the battery whereas a voltage-fed half bridge converter employing IGBTs is operated to charge the battery.

태양광 발전 시스템을 위한 무접점 변압기 적용 고효율 Full-bridge LLC 공진컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 LLC 공진컨버터는 직렬 커패시터와의 직렬공진을 위해 무접점 변압기의 누설인덕턴스와 자화인덕턴스를 이용하였다. 제안된 LLC 공진컨버터는 공진주파수 보다 높은 스위칭영역에서 연속 공진전류로 동작하는 기존 직렬공진 컨버터와는 달리 공진주파수 아래의 좁은 주파수 범위에서 불연속 공진전류로 동작한다. 이러한 불연속모드 공진전류 때문에 제안된 컨버터는 어떤 보조회로 없이 무접점 변압기 1차측 주스위칭 소자의 영 전압 스위칭(ZVS)과 2차측 다이오드의 영 전류 스위칭(ZCS)을 얻을 수 있고, 높은 전압이득특성을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 무접점 변압기 적용 Full-bridge LLC 공진컨버터를 이용한 무접점 전원장치에 대한 이론적 해석 및 시뮬레이션을 통해 150W급 시제품을 제작하여 태양광 발전 전원시스템에 적용 실험한 결과를 서술했다.

본 논문에서는 고효율 및 고전력밀도의 새로운 주파수 가변형(PFM) 직렬 부스트 캐패시터(SBC) 풀 브리지 DC/DC 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안된 회로는 기존 위상천이 풀 브리지 컨버터와 달리 스위칭 주파수에 따라 직렬 부스트 캐패시터의 전압을 가변하여 출력전압을 제어하는 방식으로, 50% 고정 시비율로 구동되므로 환류구간이 존재하지 않아 도통손실이 작다. 또한 넓은 부하 영역에 대해 영전압 스위칭 동작이 보장되며, 출력 인덕터 전류 리플도 매우 작아 출력 인덕터의 사이즈를 줄일 수 있어 대전류 사양에 매우 적합한 장점을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 회로의 이론적 해석 및 PSIM Simulation을 수행하며, 이를 실제로 1.2kW급(12V, 100A) 서버용 컴퓨터 전원장치의 프로토 타입 제작을 통한 실험결과로부터 제안된 회로의 동작특성과 타당성을 검증한다.

수 백 Watt 급의 통신용 장비 등에 적합하도록 고안된, 직렬 연결된 두 개의 트랜스포머를 갖는 새로운 위상천이 풀 브릿지 컨버터를 제시한다. 제안된 회로의 장점은 넓은 입력 범위를 가지며, 경부하에서도 스위치의 영전압 조건을 보다 쉽게 만족시킬 수 있다는 점, 그리고 작은 출력 변동율을 갖는다는 점 등이다. 뿐만 아니라, 직렬로 연결된 두 개의 트랜스포머가 번갈아 가면서 주 트랜스포머로서의 역할과 출력 인덕터로서의 역할을 함께 수행하므로, 출력측에서는 인덕터없이 필터링이 가능하게 되고, 따라서 고전력밀도의 컨버터를 제작할 수 있게 된다. 모드 해석과 대신호 모델링을 통한 설계식의 유도, 그리고 실험 결과를 보여줌으로써 제안된 컨버터를 검증한다.

A new high efficiency phase shifted full bridge (PSFB) converter for the power sustaining module of a plasma display panel (PDP) is proposed in this paper. The proposed converter employs a voltage doubler rectifier without an output inductor. Since it has no output inductor, the voltage stresses of the secondary rectifier diodes can be clamped at the output voltage level. No dissipative resistor-capacitor (RC) snubber for rectifier diodes is needed. Therefore, high efficiency, as well as, a low noise output voltage can be realized. Due to the elimination of the large output inductor, it features a simple structure, lower cost, smaller mass and lighter weight. Furthermore, the proposed converter has wide zero voltage switching (ZVS) ranges with low current stresses of the primary switches. Also the resonance between the leakage inductor of the transformer and the capacitor of the voltage doubler cell reduces the current stresses of the rectifier diodes. In this paper, operational principles, an analysis of the proposed converter and experimental results are presented.

This article deals with the sensor-less control of a DC Motor via a SEPIC Converter-Full Bridge combination powered through solar panels. We simultaneously regulate, both, the output voltage of the SEPIC-converter to a value larger than the solar panel output voltage, and the shaft angular velocity, in any of the turning senses, so that it tracks a pre-specified constant reference. The main result of our proposed control scheme is an efficient linear controller obtained via Lyapunov. This controller is based on measurements of the converter currents and voltages, and the DC motor armature current. The control law is derived using an exact stabilization error dynamics model, from which a static linear passive feedback control law is derived. All values of the constant references are parameterized in terms of the equilibrium point of the multivariable system: the SEPIC converter desired output voltage, the solar panel output voltage at its Maximun Power Point (MPP), and the DC motor desired constant angular velocity. The switched control realization of the designed average continuous feedback control law is accomplished by means of a, discrete-valued, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). Experimental results are presented demonstrating the viability of our proposal.

This paper proposes a new soft switching technique for a phase-shift controlled bi-directional DC-DC converter. The described converter employs a low profile high frequency transformer and two active full-bridge converters for bidirectional power flow capability. A new soft switching technique is proposed, which guarantees soft switching over wide range (no load to full load) without any additional circuit components. In the proposed switching scheme, the switch pairs in the diagonal position of the converter each are turned on/off simultaneously by the switching signals with a variable duty ratio depending on the phase shift amount, and the converter is operated without freewheeling interval.

In this paper the new converter topology using single-Phase full bridge inverter for the switched reluctance motor drives is proposed. The proposed SRM drives are supplied by the AC pulse voltage source, while the conventional drives are supplied by the DC voltage source. Speed of the SRM is controlled by adjusting the frequency and the multitude of output current of inverter. The SRM using the proposed converter reduces the switching loss and the machine core loss, and has ability to pre-regulate the input voltage. The total number of power switches become fewer than another topology as a number of stator poles becomes more. Power circuit of an inverter is simpler and its volume is smaller because the module device involving several switches is used as an inverter.

Of all the proposed resonant techniques, the well-known phase-shifted full bridge converter remains one of the most attractive because it offers an easy way of achieving ZVS with a minimum of extra components added, which is essential for the high power applications. This paper describes the design of a digital controller for a Phase Shifted Full-bridge PWM Converter. The small-signal model is derived incorporating the effects of phase-shift control and the utilization of the transformer leakage inductance and power FET junction capacitances to achieve the zero-voltage resonant switching. Based on the derived small-signal model, the digital controller is designed in the discrete domain. The performance of designed controller is verified through the simulation.
