Abstract
This paper demonstrates that it is possible to combine experimental measurements with theoretical predictions within a unified software environment. Nominal experimental measurements are taken, and data is imported into MATLAB. Theoretical formulae are then used to predict changes in nominal performance under different load and line conditions. A specific case study is presented where performance is predicted when a capacitor bank is placed across a DC/DC converter
