Abstract

This paper targets the development of micro-converter such as a power converter for photovoltaic module. In corresponding to the poor performance of centralized PV system under partial shading, the power converter for single PV module to maximize the energy harvest from PV module. The power converter is constantly tracking the maximum power point of photovoltaic system and increases energy output power. To minimize the quantity of devices and switchs, 320W solar micro-converter is developed using synchronous rectifier. From the basis of these results, through simulations and experiments were verified efficiency.

본 논문에서는 하나의 태양광 모듈에 대한 전력 변환기인 마이크로 컨버터의 개발을 목표로 하고 있다. 중앙집중형 태양광발전시스템이 부분적인 음영에 의해서 성능저하가 발생하는데 반해 단일 태양광모듈의 전력변환기는 태양광모듈의 발전량을 최대화 할 수 있다. 전력 변환기는 지속적으로 각 모듈의 최대 전력 점을 추적하여 태양 광 발전 시스템의 에너지 출력을 증가시킨다. 태양광 전력 변환기의 반도체 스위치 및 외부 장치의 수를 최소화하고, 또한 동기 정류기를 사용하여, 320W급의 태양광 마이크로 컨버터를 개발하였으며, 시뮬레이션과 실험에 적용하여 효율성을 검증하였다.
