Abstract

The physical processes of the operation of a pulse boosting DC-DC converter of electrical energy are considered. A computer model of a step-by-step conversion of energy: a power source into magnetic field energy, magnetic field energy into electric field energy and its accumulation by a capacitor at increased voltage was created. The converter works in the mode of pulse-width regulation. Energy conversion processes are described by equations reduced to the Cauchy form. The computer model is built in the application package Simulink, MatLab. DC-DC modelling involves calculating each pulse, storing the results, and transmitting it to the beginning of the next pulse. The described modelling algorithm, at the operating frequencies of the DC-DC converter, imposes increased requirements on the speed of the computer and the amount of its memory. The modelling program was carried out for t = 10 s at a frequency of 100 kHz, more than six hours tm > 6 hours. Using such a model for research is not effective. A method was found for modelling at lower frequencies and transferring their results to the frequencies of the converters. Modelling was carried out at frequencies of 1 kHz and the adequacy of the results of the converters at higher frequencies was confirmed.
The duration of the experiment is reduced to 30 seconds, which provides convenient modelling conditions.
