Abstract |
This paper present the Three-Level converter using IM(Integrated Magnetics) method for high power application. In power conversion system, magnetic components are important devices used for energy storage, energy transfer, galvanic isolation and filtering. The proposed Three-Level converter is to reduce the number of magnetic components using transformer integrated with output inductor. This paper proposes reluctance model base on the magnetic analysis for the Three-Level converter. Also, the secondary rectification was discussed by a single core transformer winding. A prototype featuring 540[V] input, 48[V] output, 40[㎑] switching frequency, and 3[㎾] output power using IGBT. |
