A Transformerless High Step-up DC-DC Converter For DC Interconnects

Soong, Theodore 16 August 2012 (has links)
The proliferation of distributed energy resources (DER)s has prompted interest in the expansion of DC power systems. The technological limitations that hinder the expansion of DC power systems are the absence of DC circuit breakers and high step-up/high step-down DC converters for interconnecting DC systems. This thesis presents a transformerless high step-up DC-DC converter intended for use as an interconnect between DC systems. The converter is required to operate at medium to high voltage (>1kV) and provide high voltage gain (>5). This work details the steady state operation and dynamic model of the proposed converter. The component ratings are identified and converter design limitations are investigated. A 100V:1kV/4kW prototype is produced to verify the analytic steady state model and measure efficiency. An experimental efficiency of 90% was achieved at a step-up ratio of 1:10, however efficiency at low power is limited due to the need to circulate power.
