HIGH STEP-UP RESONANT DC/DC CONVERTER WITH

RIPPLE-FREE INPUT CURRENT FOR RENEWABLE ENERGY

SYSTEMS

GUIDED BY PROJECT TEAM

ABSTRACT
• In this paper, we propose a high step-up resonant dc-dc converter
with ripple-free input current for renewable energy systems.
• We use an input-current doubler and a switching mechanism
employed at an output-voltage doubler to achieve high step-up
voltage gain without having to use a transformer with high turns
ratio.
• An active-clamp circuit installed on the primary side suppresses the
surge voltage at the switch components and recycles the energy
stored in the leakage inductance.
• A resonance that occurs at the secondary side of the converter
is used to reduce the turn-off current and switching loss
significantly, and to achieve high power conversion efficiency.
• The input current ripple declines to zero theoretically because
the duty cycle of the primary-side switches is always set to 0.5
regardless of the input voltages and load variations.
OBJECTIVES
• To reduce ripple current.
• To reduce switching loss.
• To accomplish high step up voltage gain without using a
transformer with high turns proportion.
 INTRODUCTION
• A step up resonant dc-dc converter is used.
• A input current doubler with the active clamp circuit and a output voltage doubler
with the series resonant circuit is used.
• Photovoltaic panel, thermoelectric generator, and fuel-cell stack are used as
renewable energy sources.
• This converter is usually used for low power applications because it relies only on
two switches at the primary side. Interleaved current-fed dual-active-bridge dc-dc
converters have been proposed to further reduce the input-current ripple

PROPOSED CIRCUIT
• The input-current ripple reduces to zero because the
primary-side switches are modulated with constant
0.5 duty cycle regardless of the input voltages and
load variations.
• The proposed converter is controlled by adjusting the
duty-cycle of the secondary-side switches.
• The flyback converter is used in both AC/DC and
DC/DC conversion with galvanic isolation between
the input and any outputs.
• The flyback converter is a buck-
boost converter with the inductor split to form
a transformer, so that the voltage ratios are
multiplied with an additional advantage of isolation.
