EXPERIMENT- 8

Simulation of Basic DC-DC Converters by using NI Multisim

Software Used:-NI MULTISIM


Objective of the experiment:
To study DC-DC Converters: Buck, Boost, Asymmetrical Bridge and Full Bridge
Converters. Observing the waveforms in each of the converters through simulation on
multisim and then deduce some important conclusions from it.

Theory:
DC-DC converters are widely used to efficiently produce a regulated voltage from a
source that may or may not be well controlled to a load that may or may not be
constant. They are high-frequency power conversion circuits that use high-frequency
switching and inductors, and capacitors to smooth out switching noise into regulated
DC voltages. Closed feedback loops maintain constant voltage output even when
changing input voltages and output currents. At 90% efficiency, they are generally
much more efficient and smaller than linear regulators.

Procedure:
1. All the required components are selected and placed in the design area.
2. Appropriate parameters for the components are set up.
3. Circuit connection was made as per the circuit diagram.
4. Running the Interactive Simulation or Transient Analysis, the load voltage
and load current are captured.
5. Changing the circuit connection for different loads, Step 4 was repeated.

Discussion:
As per the pulse voltage configuration: T=2×10, D=25%= 0.25.
Thus, V0= D×Vin= 0.25×30.5 =7.625V
Steady state output voltage obtained= 7.1 V.

Thus, Error= 7%
Load current, Io= Vo/R = 0.265 A and avg. Inductor current theoretically, L =I
Steady state Inductor current obtained= 0.245 A. Thus, Error = 7.5%

Dynamic Response of Inductor Current:

Discussion:
As per our pulse voltage configuration; T=1×10 , D=50%= 0.5.
Thus, Vo= Vin/(1-D) = 15/(1-0.5)=30V
Steady state output voltage obtained= 25.7 V.
Thus, Error= 14% Load current, Io= Vo/R = 1.2 A and avg. Inductor current
theoretically, L =Io/(1-D)=1.2/0.5 =2.4
Steady state Inductor current obtained= 2.2 A. Thus, Error = 8.3%.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the simulations for various DC-DC converters, including buck-boost,
voltage source, and current source converters, were successfully executed, with output
waveforms carefully analysed and validated. For voltage source inverters, the load
voltage is determined by the source voltage, while the load current depends on load
parameters, whereas in current source inverters, the load current is defined by the
source current, and the load voltage is based on the load. Furthermore, the buck-boost
converter demonstrates that the stepping up or stepping down of voltage is governed
by the duty cycle, with the converter operating as a boost converter when the duty
cycle exceeds 0.5. Finally, the full bridge converter with RLC loads shows an
overdamped response in lagging power factor conditions and an underdamped
response in leading power factor conditions. These results provide a comprehensive
understanding of converter behaviour in different configurations and load conditions.
