Bi-directional DC to DC converters for fuel cell systems
Abstract
This paper first describes the need of a bi-directional DC to DC converter for a fuel cell system. Various combinations of current-fed and voltage-fed converters are explored for the application of different voltage levels. With a preliminary study, putting current-fed on low-voltage side and voltage fed on high voltage side indicated higher efficiency than the other way around. Two low-side circuit topologies were then selected for hardware implementation. One is the L-type half-bridge current-fed converter, and the other is full-bridge current-fed converter. The high-side circuit topology is fixed with a full-bridge voltage-fed converter. Two systems were built and tested to full power. The results indicate that the combination with the full-bridge converter on the low-voltage side is more efficient than the combination with the L-type half-bridge converter on the low-voltage side for both charging and discharging modes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
