Abstract

Design and evaluation of dynamic model of multi-input/multi-output power converter consisting of six converters connected by dc-link will be presented in the paper. The model was created in Matlab/Simulink based on the existing system, with the goal of evaluating various power management strategies, where only transient behavior in case of changed operating regime is of interest. In future the model will be used as a Software-In-the-Loop development tool for the design of supervisory control algorithms.
