Comparative analysis of CCM and DCM modes of interleaved boost converters for fuel cell electric vehicles

Abstract

In this paper, based on the authors' previous work, a comparative analysis of input current ripple of IBC for FCEV is carried out. With the help of the detailed analysis of input current ripple, the operational characteristics will be discussed and optimal inductor size of IBC will be calculated and compared according to CCM and DCM. The theoretical analysis will be carried out and the informative simulation results will be provided.
