Design and Analysis of High-Efficient Driver Model for LED Luminaires

İngilizce (OpenAlex)

LED luminaires need a driver circuit for working properly. Most of the drivers have disadvantages such as losses during operation. This issue becomes more important while supplying with limited sources such as renewables. To overcome the problem, this study proposes a novel energy efficient driver for LED luminaires based on zero voltage switching (ZVS) single-ended primary inductance converter (SEPIC) technology. Driver and hence luminaires were designed to be fed from photovoltaic (PV) panels. In addition, an adaptive MPPT algorithm was developed to obtain optimum efficiency from supply system. SEPIC approach was preferred for MPPT application due to its advantages such as non-reversing polarity. This feature allows energy efficiency in corporation with ZVS. Proposed model was designed under PSIM platform with all components; PV panels, ZVS, SEPIC, and LED luminaires. A detailed analysis was performed by using system graphs under various operating conditions as different irradiance levels. Results show that proposed model is energy efficient and modular because of its low-volume structure. Therefore the model can lead smaller driver circuits with minimum losses.
