A New Design of DC-DC Converter For Capacitive Deionization Process

Li, Zhiao 01 January 2014 (has links)
The shortage of clean water has become a significant global problem, and capacitive deionization (CDI) is a technology that can be used to help relieve the problem. A Ćuk converter system that can recover energy from CDI cells is described. This converter transfers energy between two CDI cells when a cell is in its desorption period, allowing energy that would otherwise be lost to be recovered and improving overall system efficiency. In order to control the states of the MOSFET switches in the converter, a self boost charge pump is used. In this way, the microcontroller can control system duty cycle and optimize energy efficiency. A design method of reducing ripple losses caused by passive elements is presented. Several sensor circuits and their design methods that can minimize power losses are shown. The influence of initial voltage drop and voltage ramp time is also examined. This Ćuk converter system is tested using a dummy cell and a real CDI cell. The converter system shows promising performance experimentally.

Neste âmbito, é proposta uma topologia para o acionamento dos LEDs com controle de intensidade luminosa. Além disso, funções adicionais são propostas de modo a expandir o conjunto de funcionalidades da luminária. Para o acionamento dos LEDs foi desenvolvido um conversor baseado na topologia Ćuk operando em modo de condução descontínuo (DCM) com um interruptor estático em série com a carga, sendo uma solução para o acionamento de LEDs de estágio único. Deste modo, este conversor foi projetado para desempenhar simultaneamente as funções de correção do fator de potência e controle da potência na carga. Através da análise da resposta fotométrica dos diodos emissores de luz perante ondulações de baixa frequência em sua corrente, foi possível criar uma metodologia de projeto que evita o uso de capacitores eletrolíticos no circuito de acionamento dos LEDs, aumentando assim a confiabilidade do sistema. A modelagem e o controle do conversor também foram feitas e estão mostradas no trabalho. De modo a controlar e gerenciar o sistema eletrônico da luminária, foi proposta uma arquitetura baseada no microcontrolador TM4C123GE6PM. Este sistema digital é responsável ainda por promover outras funcionalidades como controle automático de intensidade luminosa, proteção do circuito e ainda monitoramento de parâmetros de qualidade de energia da tensão de entrada do conversor, tais como afundamentos e elevações. A fim de avaliar experimentalmente o sistema proposto, foram desenvolvidos um programa de computador capaz de gerenciar as funcionalidades da luminária e um protótipo de 70W deste equipamento. Os resultados experimentais obtidos mostraram um bom desempenho tanto do circuito de acionamento dos LEDs, como das funcionalidades da luminária. / This paper proposes a smart lighting system based on light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for street lighting applications. In this context, a power converter with dimming capability was designed. Furthermore, additional functions are proposed in order to expand the feature set of the luminaire. To drive the LEDs, a topology based on Ćuk converter operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) with an electronic switch in series with the load was proposed. This converter was designed to perform simultaneously the functions of power factor correction and power control, being a single-stage LED driver solution. By analyzing the LEDs photometric response due to low-frequency current ripple, a design methodology that avoids the use of electrolytic capacitors in the proposed converter was developed. The modeling and control of the converter were also done in order to ensure that the system is always operating within the desired specifications. To control and manage the electronic system of the luminaire, it was developed an architecture based on the microcontroller TM4C123GE6PM. Beside the aforementioned functions, this digital system was designed aiming the promotion of other features, such as automatic dimming, protection of the driver and even monitoring some power quality parameters related to the input voltage, such as sags and swells. In order to experimentally evaluate the proposed system, a software, able to manage the luminaire functionalities, and a 70W prototype were built. The experimental results demonstrated a good performance of the LED driver as well as the functionalities of the proposed luminaire.
