Abstract:

In this paper, first software is developed to extract dynamical model of famous dc-dc converters because at the time of this writing there is no software to obtain the converter’s dynamical equation analytically. Using commercial softwares like MATLAB®, only graphical frequency response of system can be obtained. Software developed here can give both analytic equation and graphical frequency response of system. Based on the dynamical equation given by software problem of controller design for two converters is studied as example. Designed controller is tested via Simulation. Authors used the developed software to train control engineering concepts to electrical engineering students. It is seen that using a power electronics converter as plant, increase electrical engineering students interest to learn control engineering concepts. Beside the educational use, developed software can be used to design controller for industrial converters.
