TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of AC-DC converters, and particularly relates to a high-integration single-stage bidirectional isolated resonant SEPIC AC-DC converter. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the in-depth development of more-electric and all-electric aircraft technology, the aviation power supply system puts forward strict requirements on power conversion devices, such as high efficiency, high power density, high reliability and bidirectional energy flow capability. In the aviation hybrid power supply, energy storage system and electric propulsion system, flexible and efficient energy exchange needs to be realized between the AC bus, DC bus and energy storage device, so that the bidirectional isolated AC-DC converter has become a key interface equipment of such systems.
[0003] At present, most of the existing bidirectional isolated AC-DC converters adopt a two-stage structure composed of a front-stage power factor correction (PFC) circuit and a rear-stage isolated DC-DC converter. Although this kind of topology can realize input current shaping, electrical isolation and bidirectional power transmission, its inherent defects are very prominent: first, an independent DC bus and a large-capacity energy storage capacitor must be set, which leads to a large number of system devices, complex control, significant increase in volume and weight, and seriously restricts the improvement of power density, making it difficult to meet the core demand of lightweight for aviation applications. Secondly, the energy passes through two-stage conversion, which produces additional loss and reduces the overall conversion efficiency of the system. To overcome the above shortcomings, researchers have proposed a variety of single-stage bidirectional AC-DC converter topologies. However, the existing single-stage schemes generally have poor input current quality, limited soft switching range of power devices, high voltage stress or complex control strategy, etc. In addition, the traditional hard-switching converter generates huge switching loss and electromagnetic interference when operating at high frequency, hindering the development of the converter towards high frequency and miniaturization. Figure 22 Patent CN120185434A discloses a bidirectional single-stage AC / DC circuit based on SEPIC, which can realize isolated bidirectional energy transmission, but uses the traditional PWM working mode and does not fully utilize the resonant soft switching technology, resulting in large switching loss and device stress when operating at high frequency.
[0004] Patent CN121098131A discloses a bidirectional single-stage AC-DC converter based on Swiss rectifier and Sigma-LLC resonant network, which has soft switching characteristics, but the topology structure is complex, the number of devices is large, and the control implementation is difficult.

[0038] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0039] 1. Significantly improved power density and integration. Compared with existing two-stage bidirectional AC-DC converters, this invention deeply integrates the bridgeless SEPIC structure and the isolated resonant converter structure through component reuse, eliminating the large intermediate bus capacitor. Comparative analysis shows that the number of power devices and passive energy storage components is reduced, the circuit topology is more compact, and the size and weight of the converter are effectively reduced: the number of power switching devices is reduced from 12 to 4, a reduction of approximately 66.7%; the total number of main power devices and energy storage components is reduced from 17 to 12, a reduction of approximately 29.4%. This particularly meets the urgent needs of multi-electric aircraft for lightweight and highly integrated airborne equipment.
[0040] 2. Achieve soft-switching operation over a wide load range. Addressing the issue of narrow soft-switching range in existing single-stage converters, the first capacitor C of this invention... r1 Second capacitor C r2 A resonant commutation network is formed with the second inductor Lr. By creating parallel or series resonant cavities during switching transients, the bus voltage resonance returns to zero or the current resonance crosses zero, thereby ensuring soft switching of the topology across the entire load range. Theoretical analysis and waveform verification show that this invention significantly suppresses switching stress and voltage spikes.
[0041] 3. Significantly reduced switching losses and electromagnetic interference. Based on the aforementioned soft-switching characteristics across the entire load range, this invention fundamentally overcomes the high-frequency bottleneck of traditional hard-switching converters. The switching transistor completes state switching under zero voltage or zero current conditions, resulting in lower switching losses compared to hard-switching solutions. Simultaneously, by eliminating high-frequency oscillations in di / dt and dv / dt, electromagnetic interference emissions are significantly reduced. This not only simplifies the filtering circuit but also improves the electromagnetic compatibility of the converter in aviation power systems, enhancing reliability.
[0042] 4. Achieving high-quality input current and single-stage bidirectional power transfer. The SEPIC-type energy storage network composed of the first inductor L and the third capacitor C of this invention can achieve continuous shaping of the input current without the need for an additional PFC stage. Theoretical analysis and experimental waveforms consistently show that the input current iL has good sinusoidal characteristics and low harmonic content. Simultaneously, by coordinating the control of the primary-side bridge arm and the secondary-side active bridge, the rectification and inversion operating modes can be seamlessly switched using only a single-stage energy conversion channel, simplifying the control strategy and reducing conduction losses by 20%.
[0043] 5. Improved conversion efficiency and energy transfer smoothness. Due to the integration of the resonant network and the SEPIC network, the high-frequency isolation transformer in this invention achieves more continuous and smoother energy transfer throughout the entire switching cycle. In rectification mode, the third switch S3, the fourth switch S4, and the fourth capacitor C... dc1 Fifth capacitor C dc2 To ensure synchronous rectifier operation, diode rectification voltage drop losses are eliminated; in inverter mode, the secondary bridge achieves ZVS commutation. Compared with existing two-stage topologies, this invention eliminates the intermediate DC bus energy storage stage, avoids the cumulative losses of multi-stage conversion, and effectively optimizes the overall operating efficiency of the converter.

[0073] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, the first switch S1 and the second switch S2 constitute a primary-side bidirectional switch bridge arm;
[0074] The third switch S3 and the fourth switch S4 form the secondary active bridge arm; the first inductor L serves as the input inductor, the third capacitor C serves as the energy storage capacitor, and the second inductor L... r As a resonant inductor, the first capacitor C r1 Second capacitor C r2 As a resonant capacitor, the first isolation transformer T, and the fourth capacitor C dc1 Fifth capacitor C dc2 Together with the output capacitor, they constitute a single-stage bidirectional isolated resonant SEPIC converter;

[0078] The following is based on Figure 2 Circuit structure diagram, combined with Figures 5 to 13 The specific working principle of this invention will be described.
[0079] Depend on Figure 3 It can be seen that the entire converter has 9 switching modes in one switching cycle in rectification mode: [t0~t1], [t1~t4], [t4~t5], [t5~t6], [t6~t7], [t7~t8], [t8~t9 ... 10 ]、[t 10~t 11 ]、[t 11 ~t 12 The working conditions of each switching mode under rectification mode are analyzed in detail.

The fourth capacitor C... dc1 and the fifth capacitor C dc2 Equivalent to a constant voltage source of 0.5V dc V MN V is the voltage across the bridge arm containing the first switch S1 and the second switch S2. DS1 V DS2 With V DS3 V DS4 These are the drain and source voltages of the first switching transistor S1 and the drain and source voltages of the second switching transistor S2, respectively. DS3 and i DS4 These are the currents flowing through the third switch S3 and the fourth switch S4, respectively.
[0081] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that in inverter mode, there are 8 switching modes in one switching cycle: [t0~t2], [t2~t3], [t3~t4], [t4~t6], [t6~t7], [t7~t8], [t8~t9], [t9~t6], [t7~t8], [t8~t9], [t9~t6], [t7~t8], [t9~t9], [t8~t9], [t8~t9], [t9 ... 10 The following section provides a detailed analysis of the operation of each switching mode.
[0082] like Figure 5As shown: Switching Mode I [t0~t1]: At time t0, the voltage across the first switch S1 drops to zero, and its body diode is forward biased and turns on. Simultaneously, since the branch containing the secondary switch, i.e., the third switch S3, is on, the primary voltage of the first isolation transformer T is clamped at nV. dc / 2. At this time, the second inductor L in the resonant circuit r , with the second capacitor C r2 This forms a parallel resonant network.
[0083] like Figure 6 As shown: Switching Mode II [t1~t4]: When i DS3 After the voltage drops to zero at time t1, turning off the third switch S3 achieves zero-current turn-off. Subsequently, the secondary branch switches, the fourth switch S4 turns on, and the primary voltage of the first isolation transformer T is re-clamped to -nV. dc / 2. At times t2 and t3, the fourth switch S4 and the first switch S1 are turned on successively. Both achieve zero-voltage turn-on due to the prior conduction of the body diode. The resonant network remains the second inductor L. r With the second capacitor C r2 The topology is in parallel, but the polarity of the primary-side equivalent clamping voltage of the first isolation transformer T is reversed.
[0084] like Figure 7 As shown: Switching mode III [t4~t5]: At time t4, the resonant capacitor, i.e., the second capacitor C r2 The current drops to zero, and its voltage reaches the peak of the resonant period. Afterward, the second capacitor C... r2 Energy begins to be released into the resonant network, resulting in C r2 The voltage at both ends gradually decreases.
[0085] like Figure 8 As shown: Switching Mode IV [t5~t6]: When the bus voltage VMN drops to zero at time t5, the anti-parallel diode of the second switch S2 turns on, and then a drive signal is applied to the second switch S2, achieving zero-voltage turn-on. During this stage, the bus voltage VMN is zero because the first switch S1 and the second switch S2 are grounded. Due to the energy storage capacitor (i.e., the third capacitor C) and the second inductor L... r The resulting series resonant frequency is much lower than the system's switching frequency fs, and the resonant current i r Approximately linear inverse growth.
[0086] like Figure 9 As shown: Switching mode V [t6~t7]: At time t6, the first switch S1 is turned off, and at this time the resonant capacitor, i.e., the first capacitor C, is... r1The circuit is connected and operation begins. The fourth switch S4 remains on, and the primary voltage of the first isolation transformer T is still clamped by the secondary side and maintained at -nV. dc / 2. By the second inductor L r With the first capacitor C r1 The resulting parallel resonant network causes the bus voltage VMN to rise resonantly, while the resonant current i r andi DS4 It then gradually decreases.
[0087] like Figure 10 As shown: Switching mode VI [t7~t8]: At time t7, i DS4 The voltage is reduced to zero, and the fourth switch S4 is turned off to achieve ZCS (zero-current turn-off). Since the primary voltage of the first isolation transformer T has not yet risen to the clamping voltage, the transformer exhibits magnetizing inductance L. m The characteristics of the resonant circuit. The resonant circuit consists of a resonant inductor, i.e., the second inductor L. r With L m After being connected in series, it participates in resonance, and the resonant current continues to converge, causing the primary-side voltage of the first isolation transformer T to rise further in resonance.
[0088] like Figure 11 As shown: Switching mode VII [t8~t9]: When the primary voltage of the first isolation transformer T rises to nV at time t8. dc At time t2, the first isolation transformer T is clamped by the secondary side voltage, and the body diode of the third switch S3 conducts. Subsequently, at time t9, the third switch S3 is turned on to ensure zero-voltage start-up. The resonant circuit returns to the state of the second inductor L. r With the first capacitor C r1 in parallel.
[0089] like Figure 12 As shown: Switching mode VIII [t9~t 10 ]: In t 10 At time , the first capacitor C r1 The branch current crosses zero, and the first capacitor C r1 The voltage rises to its highest point. Then the first capacitor C... r1 Upon entering the discharge mode, the bus voltage VMN begins to decrease.
[0090] like Figure 13 As shown: Switching mode IX [t] 10 ~t 11 ]: In t 11 The second switch S2 is always turned off, and the resonant capacitor, i.e., the second capacitor C, is... r2 Participating in resonance. At this time, the third switch S3 remains on, and the primary voltage of the first isolation transformer T continues to be clamped at nV. dc / 2. At this time, the resonant capacitance is the first capacitance C. r1With the second capacitor C r2 In a series structure, the resonant capacitance is halved. The resonant current continues to decay, and the second capacitor C... r2 The voltage across the terminals increases from zero, while the first capacitor C... r1 The voltage is discharged to zero, thus completing the commutation of the entire cycle and entering the next switching cycle.
[0091] by Figure 2 Circuit structure diagram, combined with Figures 14 to 21 The specific working principle of this invention will be described.
[0092] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that in inverter mode, there are 8 switching modes in one switching cycle: [t0~t2], [t2~t3], [t3~t4], [t4~t6], [t6~t7], [t7~t8], [t8~t9], [t9~t6], [t7~t8], [t8~t9], [t9~t6], [t7~t8], [t9~t9], [t8~t9], [t8~t9], [t9 ... 10 The following section provides a detailed analysis of the operation of each switching mode.
[0093] like Figure 14 As shown: Switching Mode I [t0~t2]: When the power transistor, i.e., the fourth switch S4, is turned off at time t0, the junction capacitance of the third switch S3 begins to release charge, causing its drain-source voltage V to... DS3 The voltage drops linearly to zero. Subsequently, the body diode of the third switch S3 is forward biased and turns on, clamping the primary voltage of the first isolation transformer T to nV. dc / 2. During this process, drive signals are provided to the first switch S1 and the second switch S2 successively. Since the diodes of both have already undergone commutation before turn-on, both can achieve zero-voltage turn-on (ZVS). During this stage, the energy storage capacitor, i.e., the third capacitor C, and the resonant inductor, i.e., the second inductor L... r The resonant frequency of the series circuit is much lower than the system operating frequency, and the primary loop current i s The voltage increases approximately linearly from negative to positive.
