Abstract

Purpose – To analyze the operating performance of an ac‐dc‐ac‐dc PWM parallel resonant converter operating at lagging power factor mode controlled based on fuzzy logic control method.Design/methodology/approach – A range of published works relevant to dc‐ac‐dc converters and their control methods based on PWM technique are evaluated and their limitations in converter output voltage control are indicated in the first section of this paper. The Simulink model and different stages of the converter are described in the second section. In Section 3, the general mathematical model of the system is derived and the phase‐shift PWM switching technique is explained. The equivalent circuit of the high‐voltage high‐frequency transformer used in the converter and the effects of the transformer parameters on the converter operation are presented in Section 4. In Section 5, fuzzy logic control and the basic concepts of this method are described and its application to the proposed converter output voltage control is expl...
