Abstract |
|
The Renewable energy sources are intermittent in nature. In this proposed method; it uses a single Novel single-switch resonant power converter for photovoltaic plants. The developed circuit integrates the Zero current switching (ZCS) and zero voltage switching (ZVS) technique. The blocking diode with direct current output filter filters the output. The proposed circuit uses only one active power for energy conversion which in turn reduces the cost of active power switches and control switches thereby reduces the switching losses. The active power switch is controlled by pulse width modulation at a fixed switching frequency and duty cycle. To achieve ZCS the proposed resonant converter is operated in the discontinuous mode. The proposed resonant circuit is simulated by using MATLAB. |
