Abstract
A novel non-isolated High-Gain DC-DC Converter with Moderate Gain for Hybrid Energy System applications on DC Microgrids. The paper proposes a novel high-gain DC-DC converter for Hybrid energy systems such as Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems, Fuel cells (FC), etc. The converter can replace the necessity of multiple converters for multiple sources. The major contributions are the lower switch voltage stress, High boost gain, multiple input capability, and lower component count as a dual source capability. The design and analysis of ideal and non-ideal conditions of the components are discussed and the individual effects of each component are analyzed. Further, the non-ideal gain and non-ideal efficiency are derived and presented. Also, Simulation results with a rated power of 100 W are presented.
