Abstract
The experimentation and the analysis of the Quadrupler non ideal boost converter for renewable energy source applications has been presented in this paper. The proposed converter is having wide application for domestic purpose. Here a motor load of 220W is connected to the output of proposed converter. Very less current ripples and high efficiency are the advantages of this converter in comparison with the conventional boost converter. The designing and optimization of the energy storage elements of the circuit are done using Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm to resolve the problems related to dynamic and steady state performance of the required system. The optimized values of the energy storage elements helps to reduce the updown glitch in the control to output transfer function of the system. With the designed values of inductor and capacitor, the analysis of the dynamic response is done. With the help of PI controller, the closed loop control of converter is done to maintain output voltage regulation. It means when there is load disturbance in the output side or wide change in the input voltage, the closed loop control will take care of this. Finally the proposed converter is simulated and the hardware results are obtained and validated with input source voltage of 60 V and switching frequency 100 kHz. © IAEME Publication.
