Description
Summary:In this paper, a new active clamping sepic-flyback converter has been proposed, which is suitable for a fuel cell based power generation system. The proposed converter is superposition of sepic converter mode and flyback mode. It has outstanding high boosting output voltage, component utilization and high efficiency characteristics under the inherently severe low output voltage of the fuel cell generator. The proposed converter for a full cell generator is described and verified by simulation and experimental result that make used of the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) generator.
