Design

Note

  • These designs are according my ideas.There may be errors in design
  • I have done simulation only.Hardware will be done march 2016

Datas given in this IEEE paper

  • POWER =400W
  • VIN=24V 
  •  IIN=16A
  •  VOUT=400V ,
  • IOUT =1A
  • Lm =48μH, Lk =0.25μH
  • the turns ratio of coupled inductor n = Ns/Np =4
  • OPERATING FREQUENCY OF THE SWITCH (MOSFET HERE) =50KHz
  • Gain formula of converter = ( (1+n) / (1−D) )+n

VOLTAGE GAIN CALCULATION

Gain = VOUT  / VIN
  • VIN = 24V 
  •  VOUT = 400V
Gain = 400V /  24V  =16.6

DUTY CYCLE CALCULATION

Voltage  gain of converter = ( (1+n) / (1−d) )+n 16.6  = ( (1+4) / (1−d) )+ 4 16.6 = ( 5 / (1−d) )+ 4 12.6 S= 5 / (1−d) (1−d)  = 5 / 12.6 (1−d)  = 0.396 D = 1− 0.396 D = 0.604

Coupling coefficient calculation

We have, The coupling coefficient of coupled inductor, k = Lm / (Lm + Lk) Lm =48μH, Lk =0.25μH K = 48μH / (48μH + 0.25μH) = 0.995

COUPLED INDUCTOR DESIGN

Here core used is etd-59.From the datasheet of ETD-59 core AL=1.5uH We have, M=k √LP * LS = 48μH In paper winding ratio is given about 1:4 Let N be No. of turns in primary and 4N be No. of turns in secondary LP=N2AL LS=16N2AL M = k√16N2AL * N2AL M =  k  √16N * AL2 M= k * 4 N * AL 48μH =.995 * 4 N *1.5uH 48μH =5.97 uH * N2 N2 = 48μH  / 5.97 uH  N2 = 8 N=2.83 =3

No. of turns in primary = 3

No. of turns in secondary =4N =4 * 3

No. of turns in secondary = 12

LP= NP * AL LP= 9* 1.5 uH

LP= 13.5 uH

LS= NS * AL LS= 12 * 1.5uH LS= 144  * 1.5 uH

LS= 216 uH

OUTPUT CAPACITOR VALUE

FOR A CAPACITOR VOLTAGE CURRENT BASIC RELATION IS I = C * dV / dt    dV  is output ripple voltage. Assume that output ripple voltage is about 0.02% of output voltage dV = 0.02% * 400V dV =  0.08 V C = I * dt / dV   We have dt = duty ratio/frequency C = I * D /  (F * dV ) C = 1A* 0.604/ (50000 Hz* 0.08 V) C = 151 uF =180uF (Standard value)
