A novel development of a new single switch inductor coupled DC-DC converter for PV system with two-leg inverter

Abstract

Abstract From the power generation history, the nonrenewable power sources utilization is falling extremely because of their demerits are high atmospheric pollution, more expensive, more catchment area for development, high fossil fuel transportation cost, less flexibility, and reliability. So, the sunlight systems are utilized in this work for feeding the power to the central grid. On the earth, the sunlight energy availability is more and it is more flexible for the installation. However, the sunlight photovoltaic (PV) module’s power production is very low. To improve the power generation of the PV network, a modified slider maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller is proposed in the first objective and it is interfaced with the sunlight system for capturing more sunlight insolation thereby moving the functioning point of the solar system from local MPP place to required global MPP place. The features of this sliding controller are continuous peak power production, easy development, less power dissipation losses, plus good dynamic system response. In the second objective, the available voltage of the PV is low which improved from low level to high level by utilizing the Wide voltage supply-inductor coupled converter. The development of this circuit needed very less inductive, plus capacitive components. Also, it is developed by selecting a single switch. As a result, the entire network power production cost is reduced. In the third objective, a two-leg inverter is proposed for the transformation of the DC voltage supply into three-phase powers. The MATLAB/Simulink tool is used to investigate the overall system.
