Analytical Switching Cycle Modeling of Bidirectional High Voltage Flyback Converter for Capacitive Load Considering Core Loss Effect
Abstract
With the advancement of material science, various smart materials with intrinsic capacitive property are emerging. The high voltage (HV) power electronics converters with bidirectional energy flow functionality for supplying the capacitive load are highly demanded. A switching cycle based analytical model of HV bidirectional converter driving capacitive load is beneficial in thoroughly understanding the operational behavior, investigating the energy efficiency and optimizing the design. In this paper, a HV bidirectional flyback converter for capacitive load is generally discussed in terms of configuration and working principle. Considering the parasitic elements as well as the core loss effect, the converter is modeled with analytical formulas for one switching cycle. The comparison between the model based calculation results and prototype experiments based measurement results are used to validate the analytical model.
