This article presents an interleaved bidirectional chopper with auxiliary converters for
onboard energy storage systems that is capable of achieving a significant reduction in the …

This paper focuses on a bidirectional chopper with an auxiliary converter for onboard battery
energy storage systems (BESSs). The auxiliary converter is made of single-phase full-bridge …

LowQ resonant converter, such as series-series resonant converter, series resonant
converter, and parallel resonant converter (PRC), are highly flexible and highly tolerant to …

A multilayer air-core inductor's operational frequency limit can be known beforehand if its
first self-resonance frequency can be predicted. The self-resonance frequency is due to the …

Air-core inductors are key components in power converters and measurement equipment.
To optimally design inductors, their self-resonant frequency (SRF) as a result of inherent …

This study carries out the efficiency and power density evaluations of a bidirectional non-
isolated dc-dc converter based on flying-capacitor converters using Pareto optimization …

Today, the tendency is to decrease the power converters size increasing the operation
frequency. This requires the development of innovative methodologies for the selection and …

A battery energy storage system that is placed inside a dc electric railway vehicle is
equipped with a bidirectional chopper that has heavy and bulky inductors for current …

In this paper is presented a simple method to design an inductor for high performance on a
DC-DC Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC). This element is one of the main limitations for a …
