Abstract :
A computer-aided steady-state analysis is presented for a saturable reactor assisted soft-switching DC-DC convertor. The convertor achieves efficient soft-switching without limitation for both load current and output voltage. The current and voltage waveforms, and performance characteristics are illustrated and discussed. The analytical results are presented in the form of normalised graphics. The experimental results indicate reasonable agreement with calculations
