LLC resonant converter with renewable energy source for low voltage application

This paper deals with design and simulation of LLC resonant converter for renewable energy source. Here a stand-alone wind energy system is used. The LLC resonant inverter system and DC- to- DC converter system are simulated using MATLAB simulink power system blocks. This converter has advantages like reduced transformer size, reduced filter size and current source characteristics. The simulink circuit model for closed loop system is developed and the same is used for simulation studies. The simulation results are presented.
