Minimum current stress control strategy for three degree of freedom three-phase dual active bridge DC-DC converter

Compared to single-phase dual active bridge (1p-DAB) DC-DC converters, three-phase dual active bridge (3p-DAB) DC-DC converters have advantages such as high single machine power, high power density, small filtering capacitance, and are more suitable for high-voltage situations. Therefore, they have good application prospects in DC transmission and industrial high-power DC-DC converters. However, under traditional single-phase shift (SPS) control, especially in the low power range, there is a large reactive current and severe soft switch loss. This article adopts an asymmetric modulation strategy for its larger reactive power, which reduces its reactive power in the low power range with more degrees of freedom and improves the efficiency of power transmission. Taking current stress as the optimization objective, the KKT algorithm is used to solve, and the corresponding analytical solution is ultimately obtained. Finally, a simulation is built by using MATLAB software to verify the feasibility of the proposed solution.
