 1. Introduction
 Currently, the production of domestic and industrial energy is based, in large part, on a limited resource: oil. Oil sources are becomingmore andmore rare, while the energy demands of the world rise continually. Since this formof energy covers a large part of the current energy production, it is necessary to find another solution to take over.The imposed constraint is to use an energy source that is economical and less polluting because the protection of the environment has become an important point [1–3]. The search for alternative energy resources has therefore become a crucial issue these days. Many scientific researches have been carried out, not only in the field of nuclear energy production, but also in the sector of unlimited energy sources, such as wind power generation and energy transformation. In the latter case, the design, optimization, and realization of photovoltaic systems are topical issues since they lead to a better exploitation of solar energy [2]. These photovoltaic powers generating systems can be operated in different places: electrification of isolated sites, installation in buildings or direct connection to network of electricity, and so on. A major problem with PV systems is to realize transfer of maximum power from PV generator to load. For several years, manyMPPT controlmethods have been developed and implemented, like Fuzzy Logic Method [4–7], perturbation and observation (P&O) method [5, 6, 8], and Incremental Conductance (Inc.Con.) method [7, 9–11].These techniques are generally complex and expensive to implement [4, 9, 12]. They differ in several aspects like complexity, range of effectiveness, cost, convergence speed, implementation hardware, required sensors, and popularity, plus other respects. However, these techniques are digital implementation. Alternatively, the MPPT can be implemented by analog circuits [13–15]. The potential benefit from analog solution is that theMPPT can be integrated withDC-DCcontroller such that “plug and play” can be expected for many low power PV applications. In fact, integration of certain functions into a normal PWM controller chip is the most desirable way for special applications to reduce the implementation complexity and system cost. In this paper, a new analog MPPT technique suitable for PV system applications is presented and validated by simulations.

 Abstract – Because the on-board charger (OBC) is installed in electric vehicles (EVs), high power density is regarded as a key technology. Among components of the OBC, inductors occupy more than 30% of the total volume. Thus, it is important to reduce the volume and the weight of inductors while maintaining thermal stability. Discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) can satisfy these requirements; however, only a few studies have adopted the DCM operation for OBCs because of the large inductor current ripple. In this paper, a design process is proposed for application of the DCM operation to OBCs. In order to analyze the inductor losses accurately, a numerical formula for the inductor current ripple is deduced based on a detailed analysis. Two inductors are fabricated using several ferrite cores and powder cores taking into consideration the inductor size, inductor losses, and temperature rise. In order to verify the analysis and design process, experimental results are presented that show that the designed inductors satisfy the requirements of the OBCs

High Frequency Isolated Power Conversion from Medium Voltage AC to Low Voltage DC 
Shishuo Zhao - Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State 

 Abstract
 Modern data center power architecture developing trend is analyzed, efficiency improvement method is also discussed. Literature survey of high frequency isolated power conversion system which is also called solid state transformer is given including application, topology, device and magnetic transformer. Then developing trend of this research area is clearly shown following by research target. State of art wide band gap device including silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) devices are characterized and compared, final selection is made based on comparison result. Mostly used high frequency high power DC/DC converter topology dual active bridge (DAB) is introduced and compared with novel CLLC resonant converter in terms of switching loss and conduction loss point of view. CLLC holds ZVS capability over all load range and smaller turn off current value. This is beneficial for high frequency operation and taken as our candidate. Device loss breakdown of CLLC converter is also given in the end. Medium voltage high frequency transformer is the key element in terms of insulation safety, power density and efficiency. Firstly, two mostly used transformer structures are compared. Then transformer insulation requirement is referred for 4160 V application according to IEEE standard. Solid insulation material are also compared and selected. Material thickness and insulation distance are also determined. Insulation capability is preliminary verified in FEA electric field simulation. Thirdly two transformer magnetic loss model are introduced including core loss model and litz wire winding loss model. Transformer turn number is determined based on core loss and winding loss trade-off. Different core loss density and working frequency impact is carefully analyzed. Different materials show their best performance among different frequency range. Transformer prototype is developed following designed parameter. We test the developed 15 kW 500 kHz transformer under 4160 V dry type transformer IEEE Std. C57.12.01 standard, including basic lightning test, applied voltage test, partial discharge test. 500 kHz 15 kW CLLC converter gate drive is our design challenge in terms of symmetry propagation delay, cross talk phenomenon elimination and shoot through protection. Gate drive IC is carefully selected to achieve symmetrical propagation delay and high common mode dv/dt immunity. Zero turn off resistor is achieved with minimized gate loop inductance to prevent cross talk phenomenon. Desaturation protection is also employed to provide shoot through protection. Finally 15 kW 500 kHz CLLC resonant converter is developed based on 4160V 500 kHz transformer and tested up to full power level with 98% peak efficiency.

Small-Signal Modeling and Controller Design of a Grid-Connected Inverter for Solid State Transformer-Bo-Gyeong Kim Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering ULSAN NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Design of a Grid-Connected Inverter for Solid State Transformer -Bo-Gyeong Kim 
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering ULSAN NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 

 Abstract
 A single-phase grid-connected inverter for solid state transformer (SST) is presented. This work is aimed at the modeling and the design of control schemes for the inverter. In this thesis, a small-signal model for the grid-connected inverter with modified bipolar pulse width modulation method is developed. Small-signal analysis allows to predict the stability and dynamics of the inverter. Based on theoretical analysis, controllers are designed to improve dynamics and to guarantee stability of the system. A high power factor and low harmonics are desirable in transmission system to improve the efficiency of the utility line. The current controller of the single-phase grid-connected inverter has sinusoidal reference to achieve power factor correction (PFC) and harmonics suppression. Proportional-integral (PI) scheme is widely used to control the power converter. The PI controller has the infinite gain at dc so it is suitable to track the dc reference. However, it is not good for tracking sinusoidal reference due to its finite gain at ac. The proportional-resonant (PR) controller which introduces large gain at specific frequency can track the sinusoidal reference without steady-state error but the error remains in step input response. The proportional-integral-resonant (PIR) controller has the advantage of both tracking the sinusoidal reference and removing the steady-state error for the step input. In this thesis, PIR controller is proposed for current control and design procedure for the PIR controller is presented. In addition, the voltage controller is needed to regulate the dc link voltage. The voltage controller is designed to improve the audio-susceptibility and the output impedance characteristics. The dynamics and stability of the inverter system is analyzed. The proposed small-signal model and controllers are verified by PSIM simulation and experiments.

 Abstract
The topic of this thesis is the design of high efficiency power electronic dc-to-dc converters for high-power, low-input-voltage to high-output-voltage applications. These converters are increasingly required for emerging sustainable energy systems such as fuel cell, battery or photo voltaic based energy systems.

Applications include systems for emergency power back-up (UPS), de-centralized combined heat and power systems, traction applications such as hybrid electrical vehicles, forklift trucks and special applications such as low emission power generation for truck and ship containers, and remote power generation for light towers, camper vans, boats, beacons, and buoys etc.
In chapter 2, a review of current state-of-the-art is presented. The best performing converters achieve moderately high peak efficiencies at high input voltage and medium power level. However, system dimensioning and cost are often determined by the performance at the system worst case operating point which is usually at minimum input voltage and maximum power. Except for the non-regulating V6 converters, all published solutions exhibit a very significant drop in conversion efficiency at minimum input voltage and maximum output power.
 In chapter 3, a detailed analysis of dominant loss factors in high power converters for low voltage applications is presented. The analysis concludes that:
 Power transformers for low voltage high power, if properly designed, will have extremely low leakage inductance.
  If optimally designed, boost converters will be much more efficient than comparable buck type converters for high power low voltage applications.  The use of voltage clamp circuits to protect primary switches in boost converters is no longer needed for device protection. On the other hand, they will dramatically increase power losses. Moreover, if a converter is properly designed, primary side voltage clamp circuits will not even work in low voltage high power converters.
  Very high conversion efficiency can be achieved. Peak efficiency of 98% and worst case minimum efficiency of 96.8% are demonstrated on a 1.5 kW converter.

 In chapter 4, the ability to - and challenges involved in - scaling of power converters for low voltage applications in the power range of 1-10 kW are analyzed. The analysis concludes that power MOSFETs needs to be paralleled extensively to scale power level to 10 kW. Maintaining fast current switching and reliable current sharing is essential. Further, the high ac-current carrying loop on the converter primary side will become increasingly difficult to scale due to fundamental issues such as physical size of components and penetration depth in copper.
Finally in chapter 5, a new method for partial paralleling of multiple primary power stages in isolated boost converters is presented. Maximum benefit of scaling in terms of higher efficiency and lower cost is preserved by only paralleling primary switches and the critical high ac-current loop. Dynamic current sharing is inherently guaranteed between parallel power stages. The principle can be applied to all isolated boost type converters and, in principle, an unlimited number of power stages can be paralleled. Feasibility and operation of the new topology are demonstrated on a dual 3 kW and a quad 10 kW prototype converter. Measured peak efficiency is 98.2% and worst case minimum efficiency is between 96.5% and 96.9%.

 Abstract :
Grid-tied inverters are the key components of distributed generation system because of their function as an effective interface between renewable energy sources and utility. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in the use of transformerless inverter for low-voltage single-phase grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) system due to higher efficiency, lower cost, smaller size and weight when compared to the ones with transformer. However, the leakage current issues of transformerless inverter, which depends on the topology structure and modulation scheme, have to be addressed very carefully. This review focuses on the transformerless topologies, which are classified into three basic groups based on the decoupling method and leakage current characteristics. Different topologies under the three classes are presented, compared and evaluated based on leakage current, component ratings, advantages, and disadvantages. An examination of demand for the inverter, the utility grid, and the PV module are presented. A performance comparison in MATLAB/Simulink environment is done among different topologies. Also an analysis has been presented to select a better topology. Finally, based on the analysis and simulation results, a comparison table has been presented. Furthermore, some important experimental parameters have been summarized.

 Abstract:
There has been an increasing interest in transformerless inverter for grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) system because of the benefits of lower cost, smaller volume as well as higher efficiency compared with the ones with transformer. However, one of the technical challenges of the transformerless inverter is the safety issue of leakage current which needs to be addressed carefully. In addition, according to the international regulations, transformerless inverter should be capable of handling a certain amount of reactive power. In this study, a new H6-type transformerless inverter for grid-tied PV system is proposed that can eliminate the threat of leakage current. The proposed topology has also the capability to inject reactive power into the utility grid. Three-level output voltage employing unipolar sinusoidal pulsewidth modulation can be achieved with the proposed topology. The proposed topology structure and detail operation principle with reactive power control are investigated. The relationship among the existing topologies and their reactive power control capability are also discussed. The proposed topology is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink software to initially verify the accuracy of theoretical explanations. Finally, a universal prototype rated 1 kW has been built and tested. The experimental results validate the theoretical analysis and simulation results.

SSTs have been proposed as a replacement of the traditional 50/60 Hz transformer in applications demanding high-power density. Moreover, due to the high penetration of distributed generation, DC grids, energy storage systems, and sensitive loads, SSTs have been considered as an enabling technology for envisioned future energy systems. These applications demand additional functionalities that may not be achieved with traditional transformers. For example, active power flow control, harmonic suppression, voltage regulation, voltage sag compensation, and reduced size and volume. In this thesis, SST topologies are evaluated in order to determine their impact upon the transformer design. In addition, design considerations for core and wire selections, isolation requirements, and different transformer structures are investigated. As a result, the proposed transformer design methodology accounts for leakage inductance requirements for optimal power transfer, high-frequency effects in the transformer core and windings, and a flux density optimization to maximize transformer’s efficiency. The design procedure has been implemented in MATLAB® as an interactive tool for designing high-frequency transformers.

 (Abstract)
In this paper, design guide of high-voltage isolated high-frequency transformer is proposed. Since a potential difference of up to 20 kV occurs at both ends of a transformer constituting a 3-port 3-level NPC based dual half-bridge DAB converter of solid-state transformer, it is necessary to design a transformer capable of 30 kV insulation considering margin. In order to insulate a voltage of 30 kV with air only, a very long distance between the primary and secondary wire of the transformer must be used. Therefore, bobbins made of Teflon resin and Polycarbonate were fabricated and insulation was obtained. To reduce the insulation parameter, core was connected to output neutral point terminal. The bobbin consists of an inner bobbin, an outer bobbin, a guard, and is designed to have sufficient dielectric strength. Through the simulation verification, only the primary wire portion was molded to remove the dielectric breakdown element generated at the portion where the outer bobbin and the guard contact with each other. A prototype transformer was built, completed operation verification and passed 30kV withstand voltage test. In the case of temperature test, there is no enough air layer to allow heat to escape from the secondary wire. Therefore, a high number of temperatures are measured, but this can be solved by turning the fan on.

This thesis presents three high efficiency grid-tied converter topologies and their respective control algorithms. These converters are applicable to various industrial fields such as energy storage systems (ESS), renewable energy systems, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, and electric vehicles (EV). First, a high efficiency bidirectional grid-tied flyback converter that uses a single power conversion technique and a control system for it are introduced. The proposed converter consists of a bidirectional flyback dc-dc converter and an unfolding circuit. Due to its switching control strategy, the proposed converter performs bidirectional power conversion between the energy storage device and the grid through only single step. From the model analysis, the inherent dynamic characteristics are figured out. Based on the analysis, a control system is developed, which consists of a linear feedback controller with a low pass filter, a repetitive controller, and a feed-forward controller; this overcomes the constrains caused by a right-half-plane zero and a filter resonance and makes the proposed converter achieve the desired control performances and stability. In conclusion, the proposed converter can obtain high efficiency using a single power conversion technique, and the developed control system makes the proposed converter feasible. Second, a high efficiency single-phase bidirectional inverter for a PV energy system integrated with an energy storage system. The proposed single-phase inverter is developed using the transformerless system configuration so that it provides high power conversion efficiency, excellent power density, and low production cost. Using its circuit structure and switching operation, the proposed inverter can suppress the ground leakage current which is considered to be one of the most important design parameters in a transformerless PV system. Therefore, the proposed inverter gives the feasibility for the transforemrless system configuration in a PV energy system integrated with an energy storage system and enhances the overall performance of the bidirectional power converter system. The third is a novel high efficiency three-phase bidirectional grid-tied converter with high power density for high power applications. The proposed converter is composed of the threelevel dc-dc converter and the modified three-phase T-type three-level inverter. The threelevel converter circuit configuration gives smaller passive component size and lower switch voltage stress compared to other two-level grid-tied converters. In addition, due to its novel circuit structure, the proposed converter can use the active and passive components for only two phases of the grid in the inverter stage and eliminate the leakage current problem. Thus, because the proposed converter enables to not only decrease the number of components but also make the transformerless configuration feasible, it provides higher efficiency and higher power density compared to other high power grid-tied converters. All proposed converters are analyzed theoretically, and implemented practically. to evaluate their performance. Finally, the experimental results show that the proposed converters improve overall performance such as high power conversion efficiency, power density, and production cost with satisfying the standards for the grid regulations.
