Abstract

This paper proposes a modified converter topology from the existing loaded resonant converter and describe the development of 10kW(50~500V, 0~ 50A) DC/DC Converter using the proposed topology. The suggested converter, which revised the topology of the converter operating on the CCM(Continuous Conduction Mode) (above resonance), has the advantage of enhancing the efficiency of rated load operation by rapidly increasing the primary side resonant current and by improving the resonance current in a trapezoid shape. The proposed topology is described with analysis of operating mode and designed using PSpice simulation and the points on design to consider when implementing the topology are described. It is verified that the advantages of the proposed topology centered on rated load are effectively highlighted. Experimental results carried out at different condition and its results shows 98.5% efficiency at full load condition.
