Abstract

The soft-switching technique has the potential to significantly enhance the performance of the power converter. This is primarily because it allows for an increase in the switching frequency, which ultimately leads to improved modulation quality. This raises extra concerns, particularly in high-power applications, because in a standard hard-switching converter structure, components can often not function at frequencies higher than a few hundred hertz. This paper presents a high-efficiency soft switching CUK converter.When the main and auxiliary switches are turned on and off at zero voltage, the proposed converter yields zero voltage and zero current. The suggested method is ideal for a DC-DC converter based on IGBTs or MOSFETs. The recommended systems are described using theoretical analysis, the results of computer simulations, and experimental data derived from a prototype. The design parameters of the inductance and capacitor circuit for edge-resonant soft switching were obtained using the output power and the switching duty ratio. In the end, soft-switching is better than hard-switching in terms of efficiency, particularly when operating under full load.

Abstract

To improve the energy consumption rate of solar cells and reduce switching loss, a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control approach is presented to manage the boost converter and achieve soft switching. A method for determining the optimal values of the soft switching boost converter design parameters has been proposed, by determining the ideal values for the inductor, capacitor, and duty cycle of the boost converter with soft switching, this method enables the key matching of the PV system with the DC/DC converter configuration. In addition to presenting an analysis of several MPPT methodologies, the entire design of the PV converter system is also included. This study compares the perturb-and-observe (P&O) method and the incremental conductance (IC) method for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in the MATLAB/Simulink application. The PV systems with both MPPT algorithms have been simulated beginning with an implemented model of the photovoltaic (PV) array together with the soft switching boost converter and its MPPT control. The simulation results based on irradiance and temperature are then shown. In the end, soft-switching is more efficient than hard-switching, especially when operating at full load.
