본 논문은 출력전류를 증가하기 위해서 L과 C를 공진 탱크회로로 구성하는 고주파 공진을 이용한 전류형 고주파 공진 U-U 컨버터를 보여주고 있다. 이 회로구성은 L과 C를 공진 탱크회로로 구성하였고, 스위칭 양단에 커패시터를 삽입하여 공진과 ZVS(Zero Voltage Switching) 커패시터로 동시에 사용하였다. 따라서, 컨버터는 턴ㆍ온, 턴ㆍ오프에서 스위칭 손실과 집음, 전압 스트레스를 줄일 수 있고, U전원 공급으로부터 리플이 적은 일정한 전류를 공급하기 위한 U 리액터는 공진 리액터와 연결되어 있기 때문에 부하 단락시 안정하게 동작하는 장점이 있다. 본 컨버터의 회로해석은 무차원화 파라미터 기법을 도입하여 행하였고, 또한 ZVS영역특성, 출력전력특성, 출력전압특성, 출력전류특성 등 여러 특성평가를 하였다. 여러 특성평가를 바탕으로 설계하였고, 실험을 통한 실험치와 이론치를 비교하여 이론해석의 정당성도 입증하였다.

기존의 컨버터에서 널리 사용되는 위상천이 풀브리지 컨버터(Phase-Shifted Full-Bridge Converter) 경우 입력 전원 변화에 출력 전압의 변동이 있는 경우 듀티 변화에 따른 Freewheeling 구간이 존재하게 되며 효율을 감소시키는 요인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 고효율을 요구하는 ESS 시스템에서 컨버터/인버터의 효율 향상 방안을 제시한다. Freewheeling 구간에서 ZVS(Zero Voltage Switching) 실패문제를 해결하기 위한 듀티 제어 기법을 사용하여 구현하였으며 실험 결과 효율을 향상시켰다.

UCC3895 드라이버를 이용하여 위상천이방식의 100Mhz로 운용되는 500W급 영전압스위칭(Zero voltage switching) DC/DC 컨버터를 설계하였다. UCC3895 드라이버의 데드타임은 풀브리지의 리딩래그와 레깅래그가 별도로 구동 가능하도록 설계되어 있어 두 래그간에 데드타임을 별도로 부여하는 것이 가능하며, 이것은 두 래그간에 비대칭관계인 데드타임으로 영전압스위칭의 구현을 가능하게 하였다. 또한 본 논문에서는 안정된 출력전압을 위한 부귀환회로 설계방식이 제안되었다. 시제품의 최대 효율은 $500{\Omega}$의 부하에서 95.5% 정도를 나타냈다.

본 논문에서는 단일 스위치를 사용한 LC 직렬 공진형 부스트 컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안하는 토폴로지는 별도의 보조 스위치의 추가 없이 일반 부스트 컨버터에 수동소자만을 추가하여 스위치 턴-온, 턴-오프 시 영전압 스위칭(ZVS; Zero Voltage Switching)을 수행한다. 이 토폴로지는 LC직렬 공진에 의해 스위치 오프 타임이 결정되므로, 스위치 온 타임을 가변하여 출력전압을 조절하는 온 타임 가변형 주파수 변조 기법으로 제어된다. 전류 도통 경로에 따라 제안된 회로의 동작 모드를 구분하였고, 제안된 컨버터의 동작모드와 특성은 수학적 해석과 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통해서 검증하였다.

A capacitive wireless power transfer (C-WPT) system uses an electric field to transmit power through a physical isolation barrier which forms a pair of ac link capacitors between the metal plates. However, the physical dimension and low dielectric constant of the interface medium severely limit the effective link capacitance to a level comparable to the main switch output capacitance of the transmitting circuit, which thus narrows the soft-switching range in the light load condition. Moreover, by fundamental limit analysis, it can be proved that such a low link capacitance increases operating frequency and capacitor voltage stress in the full load condition. In order to handle these problems, this paper investigates optimal design of double matching transformer networks for C-WPT. Using mathematical analysis with fundamental harmonic approximation, a design guideline is presented to avoid unnecessarily high frequency operation, to suppress the voltage stress on the link capacitors, and to achieve wide ZVS range even with low link capacitance. Simulation and hardware implementation are performed on a 5-W prototype system equipped with a 256-pF link capacitance and a 200-pF switch output capacitance. Results show that the proposed scheme ensures zero-voltage-switching from full load to 10% load, and the switching frequency and the link capacitor voltage stress are kept below 250 kHz and 452 V, respectively, in the full load condition.

This paper presents a novel prototype of dual mode control based phase shift ZVS PWM high frequency load resonant inverter with lossless snubber capacitors in addition to a single active auxiliary resonant snubber for electromagnetic induction heating(IH) foam metal based consumer fluid dual packs(DPA) heater. The operating principle in steady state and unique features of this voltage source soft switching high frequency inverter circuit topology are described in this paper. The lossless snubber and auxiliary active resonant snubber assisted constant frequency phase shift ZVS PWM high frequency load resonant inverter employing IGBT power modules actually is capable of achieving zero voltage soft commutation over a widely specified power regulation range from full power to low power. The steady state operating performances of this dual mode phase shift PWM series load resonant high frequency inverter are evaluated and discussed on the basis of simulation and experimental results for induction heated foam metal heater which is designed for compact and high efficient moving fluid heating appliance in the consumer pipeline systems.

In this paper, a simple power control scheme for a constant frequency Class-D inverter with a variable duty cycle is proposed. It is more suitable and acceptable for high- frequency induction heating (IH) jar applications. The proposed control scheme has the advantages of not only wide power regulation range but also ease of control output power. Also it can achieve a stable and efficient Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS) in a whole load range. The control principles of the proposed method are described in detail and its validity is verified through simulated and experimental results on 42.8kHz IGBT for induction heating rated on 1.6kW with constant frequency variable power.

The operation principles of the new converter are explained in detail and the several interesting simulation and experimental results verify the validity of the proposed circuit.

In this paper, the authors propose a so-called new zero voltage switching circuit topology arts an improved PWM strategy. In order to minimize voltage stress in dc-ac high switching frequency power conversion, the proposal circuit is used as interface between DC sully and the PWM inverter. The new ZVS circuit provide PWM inverter with a short zero voltage period in the dc 1ink just before inverter switches operate. By using the proposed modulating signal (transformational sinewave) art carrier sinal (sawtooth ware), the amplitude of the fundamental component is increased about 15 percent more than that of a conventional sinusoidal modulating signal and triangular carrier signal, the switching tosses is reduced. Some simulative results on computer are included to confirm the validity of the analytical results.

A zero-voltage-transition (ZVT) pulse width modulated (PWM) converter is a PWM converter with a single main power switch that has an auxiliary circuit to help it turn on with zero-voltage switching (ZVS). There have been many ZVT-PWM converters proposed in the literature as they are the most popular type of ZVS-PWM converters. In this paper, the properties and characteristics of several types of ZVT-PWM converters are reviewed. A new type of ZVT-PWM converter is then introduced, and the operation of a sample converter of this type is explained and analyzed in detail. A procedure for the design of the converter is presented and demonstrated experimentally. The feasibility of the new converter is confirmed with results obtained from an experimental prototype. Conclusions on the performance of ZVT-PWM converters in general are made based on the efficiency results obtained from the experimental prototypes of various ZVT-PWM converters of different types.
