A NEW SOFT-SWITCHING ACTIVE CLAMP SCHEME FOR FULL-BRIDGE ISOLATED CURRENT FED DC-DC CONVERTER FED DRIVES

M.Geetha and M.Sasikumar

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

This paper presents on a new high power full bridge isolated current fed dc/dc Converter with an active clamp. A proposed current fed dc/dc converter with high efficiency and voltage boosting capability is designed for use in the interface between a low voltage fuel cell source and a high voltage dc bus for inverters.ZVS scheme in all active switches is achieved for using a soft switching scheme. The switching losses and the conduction losses are reduced and the performance of the drive system should be increased from the proposed model. The proposed converter system is controlled by SPWM Technique. The simulation results are carried out and presented.
