ABSTRACT:
This paper proposes a novel high-conversionratio high-efficiency isolated bidirectional
dc–dc converter. The proposed converter is operated in the step-down stage. The dc-blocking
capacitor in the high-voltage side is used to reduce the voltage on the transformer, and the
currentdoubler circuits are used in the low-voltage side to reduce the output current ripple. The
energy stored in the leakage inductance is recycled to the dc-blocking capacitor. When the
proposed converter is operated with a step-up function, dual current-fed circuits on the low-
voltage side are used to reduce the current ripples and conduction losses of the switches in the
low-voltage side. The voltage-doubler circuit in the high-voltage side increases the conversion
ratio. The proposed converter can achieve high conversion with high efficiency. Experimental
results based on a prototype implemented in the laboratory with a high voltage of 200 V, low
voltage of 24 V, and output power of 200 W verify the performance of the proposed converter.
The peak efficiency of the proposed converter in the high-step-down and high-step-up stages is
96.3% and 95.6%, respectively

INTRODUCTION:
In addition to improvements in the conversion efficiency of green energy, the storage and
reuse of excess energy have become important research topics. Thus, high-step-up/step-down
converters have become important research subjects.
Converters with high conversion ratios can be used in energy storage systems, high-
intensity discharge lamps, high power applications, communication power, solar power, and
uninterruptible power supplies.
These converters are designed by combining switched-capacitor cells, coupled inductor
techniques, and Z source techniques.
The distributed generation system indicates that the bidirectional dc–dc converter plays a
very important role between energy storage device (Battery) and voltage bus. The function of the
bidirectional converter is to transfer energy between the battery and the dc bus.
The energy generated from the renewable source(s) will be transferred to the dc voltage
bus. Load(s) may be connected with dc voltage bus and ac utility grid. Battery is used to provide
energy to dc voltage bus when the grid voltage outage and renewable energy sources cannot
provide enough energy to the load connected with dc voltage bus

EXISTING SYSTEM:
In bidirectional DC-DC converter topology, the energy flow from the low to the high
voltage side, the boost converter (L) is controlled and the high side converter (H) is not
controlled but operates as a rectifier .To the energy flow into the opposite side the buck converter
(H) is controlled and the low side converter (L) operates as a rectifier. The main problem of this
solution is the use of the same resonant circuit elements for the both directions of the energy
flow. An additional capacitor must be used when the system operates in the buck mode

PROPOSED SYSTEM:
The circuit includes high voltage VHV; high-voltage capacitor C1 and dc-blocking
capacitor C2; four active switches S1, S2, S3, and S4; a transformer T1; two inductors L1 and L2;
a low-voltage capacitor C3; and low voltage VLV. The gate signals of S1 and S2 in the high-step-
down stage are interlaced by a phase shift of 180◦, and S3 and S4 are synchronous rectifiers. In
the high-step-up mode, the gate signals of S3 and S4 are greater than 50% and are controlled by a
phase shift of 180◦.
The gate signals of S1 and S2 are smaller than 50% and are controlled by a phase shift of
180◦ with synchronous rectifiers. The function of the proposed bidirectional converter is like the
“double voltage step-down” instead of mode. (When S1 is turned on, the voltage on the primary
winding is reduced by half because of the capacitor C2. Thus, the voltage gain can be reduced by
half by adding C2 in series with the half-bridge converter.)
This converter is controlled with duty control on frequency control so that the effect of
leakage inductance can be neglected. The proposed cannot achieve zero-voltage switching (ZVS)
on the high voltage side power switches but the low voltage side synchronous rectifier can
achieve ZVS

CONCLUSION:
In this paper, a high-efficiency and high-conversion-ratio isolated bidirectional dc–dc
converter with a low transformer turns ratio has been presented. The size of the capacitor on the
voltage side can be decreased by using current-doubler circuits with low current ripples. The
synchronous-rectifier circuit can achieve ZVS and improve system efficiency. The operating
principles, steady-state analysis, and experimental results are discussed in detail. The efficiencies
of the proposed converter with synchronous rectifiers and antiparallel diodes are compared in the
experimental results. The full-load efficiency in the step-down and step-up stages is near 96.3%
and 95.6%, respectively.
