高效宽范围四开关Buck-Boost变换器的低纹波-变频控制策略
Low Ripple-Variable Frequency Control Strategy for High Efficiency Wide Range Four-Switch Buck-Boost Converter
摘要
Abstract
Recently,the bus voltage of data center power architectures has been gradually increased from the traditional 12 V to 48 V to reduce the current in the distribution lines,thus reducing distribution losses.In 48 V bus-powered architectures,the uninterruptible power supply(UPS)system is connected in parallel with the 48 V bus,which causes the bus voltage to fluctuate over a wide range(40 V to 60 V).To better manage the bus voltage and energy flow,a bidirectional DC-DC converter must be inserted between the UPS and power-using systems.The four-switch Buck-Boost converter is attractive because of its high efficiency and wide voltage regulation capability.In order to reduce the energy consumption in data centers,it becomes crucial to improve the efficiency of FSBB. This paper analyzes the voltage gain of the FSBB converter.Then,a graphical approach compares the control strategies of the FSBB converter.The unimodal control strategy has large ripples.The bimodal control strategy system is unstable.Tri-modal solves the problems of duty cycle limitation and system stability,but the duty cycle varies greatly when the transition mode is switched.Four-mode control can add a control mode in the transition section to realize smooth conversion between different modes,and the ripple of inductor current is small.It is a control strategy with excellent performance. Then,the minimum ripple condition of the inductor current is analyzed based on four-mode control.The inductor current ripple of the FSBB converter is minimized when the phase shift time between the Buck and Boost bridge arms is controlled to zero.The average value of the inductor current is related to the output voltage,input voltage,maximum duty cycle,and output current,and it is almost the same for all four-mode control strategies.Therefore,the control method to minimize the inductor current can be obtained by simultaneously controlling the phase shift time to zero. Next,an accurate loss model of the FSBB converter is developed.When the voltage gain is constant,the loss of the converter increases as the load current increases.When the load is fixed,the lower the switching frequency,the lower the loss.Under the same load conditions,if the voltage gain is greater than 1,the loss decreases with the gradual increase of the gain at the same switching frequency until the loss is minimized when the voltage gain equals 1.On the contrary,if the voltage gain is less than 1,the loss gradually decreases as the gain gradually increases.Thus,this paper proposes a frequency reduction control strategy to reduce the converter loss in the transition mode and improve the conversion efficiency by reducing the switching. Finally,an experimental platform is established to test the inverter control strategy for the FSBB converter in steady states.The minimum ripple control strategy is then validated.The results show that the transition mode's inductor current ripple with the proposed control strategy is much smaller than the conventional four-mode control strategy.Among them,the inductor current ripple of the proposed minimum ripple control strategy is 35.2%of the conventional control strategy under the operating conditions of 51 V input voltage and 48 V output voltage.After reducing the switching frequency,the inductor current ripple of the minimum ripple control strategy is still smaller than that of the conventional control strategy.The efficiency of the proposed low ripple inverter control strategy is improved over the whole load variation range compared with the traditional fixed frequency control.Among them,the peak efficiency of the proposed inverter control strategy reaches 98.52%and full-load efficiency 98.4%,which is improved by 2.46%and 2.35%compared to the conventional scheme,respectively.关键词
