An integrated two-in-one transformer applicable to PSUs for a 120 W LED TV is proposed. This transformer comprises a PFC inductor and an LLC transformer placed and integrated on an E-I-E type magnetic core. Performance is evaluated by observing the coupling coefficients of the proposed two-in-one transformer under various air gap topologies. Among the topologies studied, an integrated transformer with centered air gap shows stable operational characteristics with a minimized mutual coupling (interference). Furthermore, applicability of the proposed integrated transformer to PSUs for a 120 W LED TV is studied from the viewpoint of integrating different magnetic components into one core, resulting to low weight, low cost, and high power density.
In this project, we present a detailed modelling approach for a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell using MATLAB Simulink. The paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the PEM fuel cell system, including the electrochemical reactions that occur within the fuel cell, the thermodynamics of the system, and the transport processes of the reactants and products. The model is based on a multi-phase approach and incorporates several sub-models for each component of the fuel cell system. The resulting model is validated using experimental data from literature, and the results show excellent agreement with the experimental data. The model is further used to investigate the effects of various parameters, such as gas flow rate, and cell voltage, on the fuel cell's efficiency. . The research's conclusions give important new information about the operation and optimisation of PEM fuel cells, and the suggested model can be utilised to build and improve PEM fuel cell systems.
