Abstract

The accuracy of states measured from simulation of a dual-active bridge (DAB) converter with an open-loop controller has been used for comparing simulation software and algorithms. The accuracy of the measured states is sensitive to simulation settings and parameters chosen. In this paper, the simulation of the DAB converter with open-loop control is run in the MATLAB/Simscape Electrical, PLECS, and PSCAD software environments, with various simulation settings. The simulation results are also compared with a new simulation algorithm proposed for DAB simulations. Different simulation settings are evaluated, including different solver types, operating conditions, and the on-state resistance values of the MOSFET switches. The simulation results are compared with the theoretical calculations. It is shown that unexpected divergence and DC offset may occur in some cases. This paper provides guidelines to simulate the DAB converter with open-loop control.
