Design & Simulation of Boost Converter for Solar Application

Sudha Bhutada, Shri S.R. Nigam

Abstract


The object of this paper is to find out the technical possibility of transformer less solar PV system applications in the domestic single-phase system. In this paper a boost converter circuit has been designed which is replacing transformer from inverter circuit which is used in transformer-less inverter to energize grid linked solar PV system. In this paper a dual boost converter has been designed for converting unregulated voltage of PV system to a fixed high level regulated voltage .The circuit has been simulated using Mat lab simulation software and results are presented in this paper.

Keywords
