Abstract
The Zeta converter is a non-inverted DC-DC converter composed of four energy storage components, capable of operating in step-down and step-up mode. This paper presents a zeta converter modelling and its analysis. The widely used Averaging Method such as State-Space is adapted in CCM (continuous conduction mode). The Zeta Converter acts as an interface between the load, solar PV array, and load. A solar PV array feeds the input power to the Zeta converter. The single diode model is employed for the solar module for simulation studies. The optimum power from the solar PV array is extracted using a modified Perturb and Observation algorithm. This controller is tuned to evaluate the Zeta converter and PV array performance under varying insolation conditions. The proposed system guarantees stability during steady-state and ensures that the maximum power is always tracked irrespective of changes in insolation level. The simulation results show the validity of the model’s effectiveness.
