Abstract:

 Among the advancing technology, energy management systems and power electronics studies are becoming more and more significant day by day. Therefore, the application areas of buck converters in industrial and consumer electronics are increasing day by day. In this study, a simple and effective real-time controller for buck converters is designed and implemented. The study aims to performance the dynamic performance of the system and reduce energy losses by using the advantages of real-time control. One of the most important objectives is to reduce complex programming processes by using a model-based approach. With this model-based approach, easy changes of the system are provided with a fast intervention to the changes in the system. With the developed TMS320F28379D based real-time control approach, the stability and response time of the buck converter are tested. Simulations and experimental studies have shown that the proposed hardware and software architecture provides stable, fast and accurate results in the control of buck converters. As a consequence, this study aims to contribute to the field of power electronics by providing an effective, simple and accessible control mechanism that improves energy conversion processes. In addition, since the results obtained can be used as a reference in the design of similar systems, it is expected to be useful for both academic and industrial applications. When the voltage control of the buck converter is made for 2 Volts, the voltage change, and the duty cycle reach the desired steady state in 1.7510-3 seconds. The results show that the proposed control structure provides a suitable and reliable solution for industrial applications. Future studies on energy efficiency and control systems will open the door to innovative designs in this field.

 Gelişen teknoloji içerisinde enerji yönetim sistemleri ve güç elektroniği çalışmaları gün geçtikçe daha da önem kazanmaktadır. Bu nedenle buck dönüştürücülerin endüstriyel ve tüketici elektroniğindeki uygulama alanları her geçen gün artmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, buck dönüştürücüler için basit ve etkili bir gerçek zamanlı denetleyici tasarlanmış ve uygulanmıştır. Çalışma, gerçek zamanlı kontrolün avantajlarını kullanarak sistemin dinamik performansını artırmayı ve enerji kayıplarını azaltmayı amaçlamaktadır. En önemli amaçlardan biri model tabanlı bir yaklaşım kullanarak karmaşık programlama süreçlerini azaltmaktır. Model tabanlı bu yaklaşım ile sistemdeki değişikliklere hızlı bir şekilde müdahale edilerek sistemin kolay bir şekilde değiştirilmesi sağlanmaktadır. Geliştirilen TMS320F28379D tabanlı gerçek zamanlı kontrol yaklaşımı ile buck dönüştürücünün kararlılığı ve tepki süresi test edilmiştir. Simülasyonlar ve deneysel çalışmalar, önerilen donanım ve yazılım mimarisinin buck dönüştürücülerin kontrolünde kararlı, hızlı ve doğru sonuçlar verdiğini göstermiştir. Sonuç olarak bu çalışma, enerji dönüşüm süreçlerini iyileştiren etkili, basit ve erişilebilir bir kontrol mekanizması sağlayarak güç elektroniği alanına katkıda bulunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Ayrıca elde edilen sonuçlar benzer sistemlerin tasarımında referans olarak kullanılabileceğinden hem akademik hem de endüstriyel uygulamalar için faydalı olması beklenmektedir. Buck dönüştürücünün gerilim kontrolü 2 Volt için yapıldığı zaman, geriliminin değişimi ve doluluk oranının 1,7510-3 saniyede istenilen kararlı hale ulaşmaktadır. Sonuçlar, önerilen kontrol yapısının endüstriyel uygulamalar için uygun ve güvenilir bir çözüm sağladığını göstermektedir. Enerji verimliliği ve kontrol sistemleri üzerine gelecekte yapılacak çalışmalar bu alanda yenilikçi tasarımlara kapı aralayacaktır.
