Abstract
High power reliability and high energy density are always in demand, and this is driving the evolution of power conversion technologies. People have begun to examine the potential positions of dc systems in both current and future power equipment due to the rise in the use of renewable energy and the implementation of energy storage in recent decades. Because of its efficiency and power density, dc voltage representation has found use in a wide range of fields, including data centres, the aerospace industry, and dc micro-grids. Resonant DC-DC converters, with their gentle switching and minimal EMI, provide a promising solution to these problems. Finding and examining the various modes of operation of the converter while employing the pulse-removal approach is the primary objective of this study. The new method of operation utilises variable frequency and variable phase displacement in sub-resonant mode, which promises to reduce the transformer size while also facilitating the soft-switching change of the insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) and line frequency diodes on the rectifier side. The pulse elimination approach, a revolutionary mode of operation for the converter, involves phase and frequency shift modulation at varying rates. Using the results of MATLAB/SIMULINK simulations, the suggested control technique may be utilised to establish the baseline switching function configuration necessary to attain high power efficiency.
