Experimental verification of DC/DC Boost converter calculation model considering conduction losses

This paper presents experimental verification of mathematical model of Boost DC/DC pulse converter structure with regard to conduction power losses for Continuous Current Mode (CCM). Measured characteristics of efficiency of energy conversion, voltage gain have been presented and compared with theoretical ones. Characteristics obtained on the basis of the model proposed in [1] well approximate experimental ones. Thus, the proposed model is suitable for converter projecting with the possibility to achieve predetermined efficiency of energy conversion and voltage gain at the stage of selection of converter elements.
