Abstract
This paper proposes an improved dc transformer (NDCT hereinafter) based on switched capacitor with reduced switches for the integration of low-voltage dc energy storage systems and medium-voltage dc power distribution grid. The topology, phase-shift (PS) shoot-through and multiple PS modulations, and voltage, current, and power characterizations, as well as commutation characterization and control strategy, are proposed and analyzed comprehensively. Compared with the traditional schemes, the proposed NDCT not only can enhance reliability and flexibility but can increase voltage adjustment and power transfer capabilities as well. Moreover, the current ripple performance and soft-switching performance are improved, and the number and capacity of switches are reduced, thereby increasing the efficiency and cost of the system. Finally, an NDCT prototype is built. Experimental results verify the correctness and effectively of the proposed solution.
