Two time scale global dynamical modelling of power electronic systems

Global dynamical models of power electronic systems allow to compute their dynamics in a very easy way as they replace the switching behavior of the power electronic converter by a continuous process [F. Labrique, H. Buyse, G. Seguier, R. Bausiere, Les convertisseurs de l'electronique de puissance--Commande et comportement dynamique, vol. 5, Technique et Documentation, Lavoisier, Paris, France, 1998; H. Buyse, D. Grenier, F. Labrique, S. Gusia, Dynamic modelling of power electronic converters using a describing function like approach, in: Proceedings of the ELECTRIMACS'99 Conference, vol. 1, Lisbon, Portugal, 1999, pp. 7-14]. But they are unable to predict the ripples induced by the switching behavior of the power semiconductor switches.The aim of this paper is to show for power electronic systems using a power electronic converter working in a PWM mode, how it is possible to define a global dynamical model including a dynamical model of the ripple effects.
