Abstract |
This paper proposes the boost type bidirectional zero current switching(ZCS) DC/DC converter of transformer series construction for electric vehicle operation using low voltage battery. This converter can high boost through the double voltage circuit and series construction of output part using two converters. This converter system has the advantages that bidirectional power transfer is excellent, size and making of transformer because of this converter keeps the transformation ratio to 1:1. Proposed DC/DC converter uses the ZCS method to decrease the switching loss. By replacing reactance ingredients of L-C resonance circuit for ZCS with leakage inductance ingredients of high frequency transformer and half-bridge capacitor it reduces system size and expense because of not add special reactor. It can confirm to output of high voltage to operate the electric vehicle with low voltage of input and operation of ZCS in all load region through the result of PSIM simulation and experiment. |
