PowerCON ‘17

Design and Analysis of Power Converters & Fuzzy Logic Controllers

FACULTY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Organized by Dept. of Electrical & Electronics Engineering, Amal Jyothi College of Engineering, Kottayam, Kerala, India, In association with ISTE Kerala Section

The power converters play an important role in power control and conversion of electrical energy. With the introduction of new topologies the quality and the efficiency of the power systems have been enhanced. Design and development of power converters and their controllers are the emerging research areas. Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) is widely used in many applications for accurate and improved process control. The simulation models of power converters and controllers are developed, a performance study is carried prior to implementation. MATLAB is a powerful programming and simulation tool with wide range of toolboxes and most suited for simulation and analysis of power converter and control circuits.
