چکیده
The conventional hard switching half-bridge topology used as a rolling stock auxiliary power supply unit has limited switching frequency due to high power losses in semiconductors. The study analyses LLC and LCC topologies in attempt to improve the performance of the converter and presents a simulation of the operation and an estimation of power losses.

High voltage gain DC-DC resonant converter
In this paper, a DC-DC resonant converter with high voltage gain and small size is studied. To reduce the size and weight of this converter, the operating frequency should be as high as possible. In this research, the frequency changes from 120 to 200 kHz. Due to the high operating frequency, it is necessary to reduce the switching losses using soft switching methods. Resonant converters are su...

متن کاملReducing IGBT losses in ZCS series resonant converters
The fundamental operational parameter that controls the losses In series resonant converters was round to be the (reflected) DC voltage transfer ratio. Losses which are a function of the average current (such as conduction losses of IGBTs and diodes) are independent of the s\vltchlng frequency. Losses which are associated with the rms current are a function of both the (reflected) DC voltage ra...

This paper proposes two new soft-switching transformerless converters with high voltage conversion ratio. These proposed converters achieve soft-switching each with a single auxiliary resonant cell. The merit of these converters is reduced switching losses with lesser number of devices. The main switching devices are turned off with zero current switching (ZCS). Apart from the soft-switching fe...
متن کاملA New ZVZCS Isolated Dual Series Resonant DC-DC Converter with EMC Considerations
A novel ZVZCS isolated dual series-resonant active-clamp dc–dc converter is proposed to obtain high efficiency. The proposed converter employs an active-clamp technique, while a series-resonant scheme controls the output voltage with the complementary pulse width modulation controller. The active-clamp circuit serves to recycle the energy stored in the leakage inductance or the magnetizing ...
