Abstract:
In this paper a switching strategy for multiple-input converters (MICs) fed PMDC motor is presented and analysed. MICs have been identified to provide a cost-effective approach for energy harvesting in hybrid systems, and for power distribution in micro- and nano grids. Photo voltaic cell and fuel cell is given as multiple inputs to the buck boost converter. In output we are giving a permanent magnet dc motor. A PI controller is shown to regulate the MIC’s operating point. The analysis is verified by simulations.
