Improvement of Efficiency in Bidirectional DC-DC Converter with Dual Active Bridge Using GaN-HEMT
A prototype bidirectional isolated DC-DC converter with an output of 3.6 kW, using GaN-HEMTs, employing a planar transformer and operating at a maximum frequency of 400 kHz, was developed and evaluated. Typical circuits for bidirectional isolated DC-DC converters are the LLC resonant converter and the dual active bridge (DAB), both of which have the disadvantage of low efficiency at light loads. In this paper, GaN-HEMTs were used as a rectifier device to reduce DAB losses with natural commutation under light loads, utilizing their no reverse recovery loss characteristics. Zero-voltage switching was achieved using the transformer excitation current as a lagging phase current on the input side. As a result of the efficiency comparison between the LLC resonant converter and DAB under the same components and input/output conditions, higher efficiency was obtained in DAB under most conditions. The maximum efficiency was 98.6%.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
