研究目的
Investigating the performance of a photovoltaic array based system using a transformer-less high gain interleaved dc–dc boost converter to match environmental-friendly sources of energy to the load.
研究成果
The proposed system uses the interleaving technique to cancel the ripple in the input current with the preselected duty cycle and by using the switched capacitor circuit, the converter provides a high voltage gain. The proposed system can be used for water pumping applications and for driving dc loads in homes. The proposed system is simulated using PSIM software and the experimental prototype is developed and investigated in the laboratory. Performance analysis of the system is studied to observe the effect of change in input current ripple for different duty cycles and inductor values. Working of the system is validated with the analytical, simulated and experimental results which are in close agreement.
研究不足
