Abstract

This paper reveals energy shaping passivity-based control methodology for a three-level (TL) Ćuk PFC converter. The proposed control methodology is based on the dynamic model of the system along with the idea of energy shaping and damping injection. First, a dynamic model of the TL Ćuk PFC converter is developed using the port-controlled Hamiltonian formulation and the state-space averaging technique. Then, the PCH control technique is implemented in the system and the stability analysis is carried out. In order to eliminate the steady state error, a PI controller is integrated with the PCH-PBC control scheme. Further, the performances of aforesaid system are investigated for battery charging application with the help of MATLAB/Simulink. To validate the simulation study, a prototype model of TL Ćuk PFC converter with proposed controller is built using OP-5142 real-time simulator and test results are recorded. Furthermore, the power quality features of TL Ćuk PFC converter are assessed through monitoring of input current THD under different operating conditions. To assess the system performance in terms of efficiency, input p.f., input current THD, and controller parameters, the proposed controller is compared with benchmark PI controller under dynamic variations at the input voltage and the load.
