Modeling and Analysis of a Constant Power Series-Loaded Resonant Converter

Abstract

Future Naval systems and ships are being designed with pulse-power loads and hybrid electrical systems. There is a demand for efficient, reliable, and durable compact power converters to bridge pulse-power systems with the electrical plants of the future. This thesis presents modeling and analysis of a constant power Series Loaded Resonant (SLR) converter. The modeling work presented was successfully implemented in Simulink and then prototyped in a small-scale application in the laboratory. The Simulink model and prototype were tested under various conditions and may be used to reduce the risk in the design of future large-scale applications.
