Modeling and simulation of DC power electronics systems using Harmonic State Space (HSS) method

Abstract

Abstract-For the efficiency and simplicity of electric systems, the dc based power electronics systems are widely used in variety applications such as electric vehicles, ships, aircrafts and also in homes. In these systems, there could be a number of dynamic interactions between loads and other dc-dc converters. Hence, in order to analyze these problems, simulations are required to consider such a complex system, which typically are time consuming. However, simulations in the time domain may increase the calculation time and computer memory. Even though several simplified approaches may be developed based on the state-space averaging and generalized averaging, these also have limitations to show the same results as with the non-linear time domain simulations. This paper presents a modeling and simulation method for a large dc power electronic system by using Harmonic State Space (HSS) modeling. Through this method, the required computation time and CPU memory for large dc power electronics systems can be reduced. Besides, the achieved results show the same results as with the non-linear time domain simulation, but with the faster simulation time which is beneficial in a large network.

“…where, (22) Assuming < i dc > 0 = i dc (t), that means the 0th DP contains all information of current i dc (t) [18]. For the phase lead diode bridges, the vector of the input current is i m,lead , and it has < i m,lead > 0 = i m,lead .…”

“…This method is suited to analyzing the interaction with the passive elements of the system; however, it is not capable of dealing with high-frequency information [4] and integrating it into the system model. Other proposed methods such as the generalized state-space averaging presented in [5,6] or harmonic state-space method detailed in [5], can offer more accurate ripple estimation and include time-varying points of the linearized model. Using numerical methods and grey-box identification procedures, a model of quasi-linear behavior can be obtained [7].…”

Frequency-Domain Modeling and Simulation of DC Power Electronic Systems Using Harmonic State Space Method

“…For instance, electric ship, aircraft, home network, medical systems, and dc micro-grid are important applications [1]- [4]. In these dc power electronic systems, the frequency coupling can happen due to the multiple connections of other converters, loads such as constant power loads and control interaction [5].…”
