Abstract
The LLC resonant converter is particularly applicable for power supplies applications since soft switching is easily achieved. The dual objectives in power supply are higher switching frequencies and higher power densities. The analysis and design of the LLC resonant converter, especially the magnetic components needs further investigation and the related research has enormous practical significance. In this thesis, the design methodology for the LLC resonant converter is proposed based on the circuit analysis and the loss calculations with soft switching conditions and input voltage variations considered. The gapped transformer employed in the resonant converter is deeply investigated. The transformer was treated as the multiwinding inductor and a new design methodology is proposed. The parasitic parameters in the transformer involving high frequency leakage inductance and stray capacitance are studied, and reliable evaluation formulas are presented. With the purpose of introducing the planar transformer in the LLC resonant converter, the detailed modelling of planar transformer including the winding loss calculation, the stray capacitance and the leakage inductance for the integrated planar structure incorporating the low permeability magnetic shunt is carried out. Combing the analytical results of the gapped transformer design method and modelling of the planar transformer, the gapped planar transformer for the LLC resonant converter is designed and fabricated. Comparison with the conventional transformer shows that successful operation is possible with the low profile core.

Characterization of high voltage insulation planar transformer and flyback design tool - Jiang YU and Teddy BONNIN - Département Electronique et Energie Spécialité Electronique et systèmes de l’énergie électrique -

Our work is generally composed by two parts: One is experiment and industrializing a high voltage insulation planar transformer the other is designing a flyback database tool. The products range Mors Smitt The MSAVDC (MS stands for representation of the DC current consumed by the railway rolling stock equipment on the catenary lines of supply (750VDC, 1500VDC and 3000VDC). Placed on the roof of the train, this system can be in direct contact with high voltage and ground. Therefore, it must be able to protect the external battery packs in order to ensure the safety of goods and persons on board. Moreover, it must meet the constraints of temperature and humidity which have a direct impact on the behavior of electronics inside the device. According to the principle of shunt measurement, a voltage measurement of the current crossing a portion located in the power bus bar of the train is taking by two resistors. The connections for the measurement are also used to measure the temperature of the copper bus bar in order to correct the temperature drift. The system also includes an auto calibration system. Then, it is possible to calibrate the measurements by integrating the dimension variations of the section of the bus bar. This analog information is converted in digital data form, and then transmitted thanks to an insulated bus between HV1 and LV2 printed circuits boards. It is an asynchronous serial communication type, ensuring a transfer of data bits one at a time, through a single transmission line (TX). The baud rate is set at 500kbits/s (cf. Appendix N°1).
