Respected Dr. Sam Ben Yaakov, I am Satish Chandra BS, pursuing M.Tech., in Power Electronics at NIT-Trichy, Tamilnadu, India. At Present, I would like to do my project on DAB Converters and want to work upon it further. This helped me so much for building basic understanding upon it. Thank You So Much as well It's Great to see your responses for the comments, truly appreciable Sir.
Thank you for the video! I am using it now for the practical design of the converter. But I found if we define d=tph/Ts, the formula for g should be corrected as follows: g=Ts*(1-2*d)*d/(n*L), which corresponds to 90 degrees (d=1/4) for maximum value like in the picture from your video. Thank you.
Hello Professor, This is so far the best explanation I have come across. Awesome work, I would love to see more of your talks and technical insights in the future. I'm eagerly looking forward to your next tutorial/talk on resonant topology. Best regards, Nagendra.
Dear Professor, thank you so much for this video. It was a wonderful explanation. Can you please post a simulation video of SPS and DPS control of DAB as well?
Thank you, Professor, for a very well elaborated explanation of the DAB. Can you please explain the other two modulation techniques of DAB (DPS and TPS) and the output current equations for each technique?
Respected Professor is DAB is suitable to connect MW scale PV system to HVDC Transmission system please help me in this regard for simulation of DAB in MATLAB
Hello Professor. I bought Dual Active Bridge (DAB) as a design project, I am doing research, can you suggest written sources that I can use on this subject, thank you in advance.
@@sambenyaakov When Qb1 and Qb4 are on, then I2=IL so the two lines are the same. When Qb2 and Qb3 are on, then I2=-IL. Thanks for all the great videos by the way.
@@sambenyaakov @14:03, you show that I2=IL, along with the switching plots for Qb1, Qb4, and Qb2, Qb3. When Qb1 and Qb4 are on, then I2=IL so the two lines (red and blue) are the same, which is what you have shown on your plot. However, when Qb2 and Qb3 are on, then I2=-IL, so the blue line depicting I2 should have a positive slope while IL has a negative slope. I think you drew I2=IL when Qb2 and Qb3 are on. Is that correct?

One thing immediately appears. In the left and right legs we have to use very different mosfets (or even mosfet and igbt). I doubt we can use a same controller for the whole system (I don’t mean drivers, but a controller exactly). How to sync boost, soft-start, dead times, etc if we spread a phase shifting mechanism over a bridge?… Another thing.. What is an advantage comparing to a classical two secondary coils + sync rectifier architecture? I see twice more expensive transistors and a doubled heat losses. Modern TI full bridge phase shift zvs controllers do their job great at only one side of s bridge
Thank you a lot prof for the shared valuable informations related to DAB. My questions are the followings: 1- is it possible to implement the voltage-fed or current-fed DAB without blocking capacitor in series with the leakage inductor? 2- Among the mention modulation schemes which one is recommended for reducing the circulating current with extended ZVS range. Thank you once again prof.
Hi Hamza, Thanks for conversation. 1. Yes is is possible, a blocking capacitor is not needed 2. The basic phase shift DAB does not have circulating current (like the phase shifted PWM). There is no duration in which the inductor current is locked into a short. Best.
Hello Professor, I have some Questions. 1) For resistive load, if there is no delay between the gate pulses than can we say that the DAB will act like Phase Shifted Full Bridge? 2) For the same resistive load, if the secondary Bridges are operated with some phase delay then what is the impact on circuit operation?
Thank you so much sir for this wonderful explanation. I am actually developing the hardware setup of dual active bridge in the laboratory. I/P is 300V DC and o/p is 225 VDC (transformer turns ratio is 1:0.75). I am observing that power transfer is possible for a resistive load at the output with no delay between the pulses for the two H-Bridges. Can you please give an insight of the circuit when no delay is given, and how power transfer is possible with resistive load at open loop with no delay.
Hi Professor. Thanks for the lecturer. At time 13.49 explains the I2 current will be same as IL with zero phase shift. How this is possible. I see I2 as sawtooth rather than triangle waveform with zero phase shift . However I agree the average current is zero.
Thanks for comment. These are important and crucial issues but the video is just a primer. Look up my TH-cam channel, it includes many videos on inductor and transformer designs.
Hello Sir. Thank you for such a great explanation. I had a doubt. What is the critical role of the inductor in this scenario? I understand that it performs the current reset or more accurately zero crossings and is an essential part of maintaining the system stability. But exactly how does it do that? Also, what would happen if the inductor was taken out?
Hi Siddhi, this is a good question. Please post it at the LinkedIn group I am managing ( www.linkedin.com/groups/13606756 , you need to ask to be a member and I will accept). This way others will benefit from my answer and perhps others will respond. Thanks.
Dear professor, my question is which type of DC DC converter have high voltage gain (DAB, Modular Multilevel converter) to connect MW scale off shore pv plant to HVDC transmissions system.
Dear professor, Thanks for the explanation and could you please also explain how to generate the pulses for V2G applications, or could you please suggest a good reference for the same if possible. Thank you sir.
Long time, no see. How are you, sir? Hope everything goes well with you and thank you for the excellent lecture. My question is about your definition of DTs in the figure on the video 22:10. I think it is DTs/2 instead of DTs. So does d=2*tph/Ts otherwise the first equation of I1 doesn't hold.
Thank you very much professor for this course. I have a question for you please, so what is the difference between a dual active bridge and a solid state transformer ? thank you.
Thanks for the explanation Prof ! One question, if I were to express the average input current I(ia), would it simply be the average inductor current multiplied by 0.5 (proportion in a a switching period where S1 is ON)?
Sorry, but, Is it possible that the equation of g has a typo? I think the correct equation is g = (Ts*(1-2d)*d)/(n*L). I agree, best power electronics channel. Thank you professor.

How to design the DAB for a particular gain? eg if I need to connect between 12V and 400V. Is the gain dependant on the turns ratio?
The gain is primarily by turns ratio. Modulation adds a litttle . Hard switching in step up mode.
Is resonance DAB LLC dcdc converter?
No . It is a quasi resonant converter..

Average during the period the switch is on (not average over period) since you are sailing the inductor at that time.
