The amount of electric energy used in a vehicle will be increased continuously. The increment of electric power demand causes interest on new higher power system such as 42V Power Net. Furthermore, the necessity for development of energy storage device is highlighted recently. Bidirectional nm Converter is one of the important parts in 42V power system. Therefore, this paper proposes bidirectional Cascade Buck-Boost DC/DC Converter which can satisfies required specifications in 42V power system The operation principle is described along with simple control method, and experimental results on a 500W prototype are provided.

In the AC module system, mismatch problem between AC power and constant input power is occurred. To solve this problem, electrolytic capacitor is utilized for diminishing power pulsation in PV side. However, it has disadvantages of low life span and weak in temperature. Decoupling method has been studied to reduce the capacitance and replaces electrolytic capacitor to film capacitor. This paper proposes design method for decoupling circuit which bidirectional DC-DC converter using soft switching. Proposed system is verified by design optimization and simulation results.

In this paper, the bi-directional soft switching DC-DC converter using ZCT(Zero Current Transition) method is proposed for using battery application system. This topology is composed of soft switching bi-directional buck/boost converter having the ZCT auxiliary circuit with two switches, two resonant capacitors, one resonant inductor. Therefore, the proposed topology can reduce switching loss. To verify the validity of the proposed topology, theoretical analysis and simulation results are presented.

This paper proposes a new soft switching technique for a phase-shift controlled bi-directional DC-DC converter. The described converter employs a low profile high frequency transformer and two active full-bridge converters for bidirectional power flow capability. A new soft switching technique is proposed, which guarantees soft switching over wide range (no load to full load) without any additional circuit components. In the proposed switching scheme, the switch pairs in the diagonal position of the converter each are turned on/off simultaneously by the switching signals with a variable duty ratio depending on the phase shift amount, and the converter is operated without freewheeling interval.

최근 환경 문제가 사회적으로 대두됨에 따라 탄소배출권 제도에 대한 관심이 증대되면서 Net Zero Energy Building(NZEB)에 대한 관심 역시 커지고 있다. NZEB는 주로 태양광을 에너지원으로 이용하며, 더 효율적인 에너지 사용을 위해 에너지 저장장치(SIU)를 이용하는데 이 두 요소들은 DC전압을 출력으로 갖고 있으며, NZEB의 특성상 외부 AC그리드와 연결된 양방향 AC/DC컨버터의 사용량이 적기 때문에 건물 내 배전을 DC로 할 경우 더 효율적인 에너지 사용이 가능하다 본 논문은 기존 DC배전의 구조에 대해 살펴보고, 여기에 Renewable-Storage Connecting Unit(RSCU)을 더해 NZEB에서 에너지 사용의 효율성을 높이는 방법에 대해 연구하며, 또한 그 시스템 제어 방법에 대해 연구한다.

This paper proposes a new method for the current ripple reduction of a three-phase interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converter. Usually, the three-phase interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converter is used for battery charging and discharging to reduce battery current ripple. In V2G application, a PWM AC-DC converter is used to connect the AC power grid and three-phase interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converter for battery charging and discharging. The magnitude of DC link voltage affects the battery current ripple magnitude. Therefore, the magnitude of the battery ripple current is analyzed with variations of battery and DC link voltages. The ripple current magnitude is found to be minimized by controlling the DC link voltage. Simulation and experimental results show the usefulness of the proposed method.
