I.INTRODUCTION

The renewable energy sources like as hydroelectric power stations and wind turbine power stations has created various electrical energy sources with entire different electrical characteristics for the modern group of power generating systems. In order to combine more than one electrical energy sources, such as hydroelectric power stations and wind turbine power stations, solar array, fuel cell (FC) and commercial ac line to get the regulated output voltage, the different types of multi input converters have been explained in recent years.

In generally, two dc voltage sources are connected to two independent chopper power converters to obtain the two stable and equivalent output voltages, which are connected to the load or dc bus, to provide the electrical energy demanded by the loads.

Another method for the dual-input z-source chopper converter is to develop two dc voltage sources in series to form a single voltage source where traditional choppers i.e. dc-dc power converters can be used to transfer power to the load. In order to transfer power simultaneously and individually, each dc voltage source needs a controllable switch to provide a bypass short circuit for the input current of the other dc voltage source to deliver electrical energy continuously.

Another technique is to put pulse width modulation converters in parallel without or with electrical isolation between them by using the coupled transformers.

Because of the voltage amplitude variations between the two dc sources, only one of them can be connected to the input terminal of the dc-dc converter and transfer power to the load at a time.

The objective of this paper is to propose a dc motor fed with double input dc-dc converter which has the following advantages:

The power can be deliver to the load i.e. dc motor individually or simultaneously; the multi winding (mw) transformers are not needed, the magnitude of the input dc current or voltage can be higher or lower than the one of the regulated

.

  1. CIRCUIT CONFIGURATION AND PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

    1. Z-Source Converters

      Impedance-source i.e. z-source converters are group of power electronic converters which can overcome the problems of traditional converters.

      Alternate energy sources such as solar, fuel cells, wind turbines have wide range of voltage variations due to nature. Photovoltaic cell voltage varies with respect to radiation and temperature. Fuel cell stack voltage drops greatly with load current .and wind generator voltage varies with wind speed and control.

      The traditional voltage source inverter that has been the power conversion technology for these energy sources cannot cope with the wide voltage change and often requires additional voltage boost by additional dc-dc converter, which increases cost, and power loss.

      The Z-source converter/inverter systems can solve this problem. The Z-source inverter is a novel topology that overcomes the conceptual and theoretical barriers and limitations of the traditional voltage-source converter and current-source converter.

    2. Circuit Configuration

      The circuit diagram of an effective controlling of dc machine by using dual input z-source chopper converter based as shown in fig.1.The circuit consisting of two different input voltage sources, those are voltage source Vdc1 and voltage source Vdc2, and four diodes, D1,D2,D3,D4,.In this proposed paper, permanent connection of input dc sources are considered, so that diode D1 and diode D2 can be replaced with active switches if its required to connect and disconnect each of sources to input side of converter frequently. Energy receiver, converter and transmitter sections are situated in the middle side of the converter.

    3. Principle and modes of Operation of Dual Input chopper Converter

    In this circuit there are four different types of operating states with respect to active or inactive states of dc sources. Both of the input voltage source Vdc1 and voltage source Vdc2 can deliver the power to the load either individually or simultaneously by using multi input converters. When one of the input sources Vdc1 or voltage source Vdc2 feeds the multi input converters, it will be transfers the power to the load individually and the MIC will operate as does a PWM converter.

    D1

    1. Mode 1, both Vdc1 and Vdc2 are in active state

      Fig. 2 shows equivalent circuit of this mode. Both Vdc1 and Vdc2 are in active state, the converter input dc voltage is sum of the voltage of two series dc voltage sources, by Fig. 3 and 1 illustrates that.

      = 1 + 2 (1)

      In this mode, because both two sources are active, the diode D1 and the diode D2 are forward biased and the diode D3 and the diode D4 are reverse biased. Thus, the sources current enters in to the Z-network through diode D1 and diode D2 and after passing through the load impedance and comes back into the negative polarity to the source.

    2. Mode 2, Vdc1 is active and Vdc2 is inactive

      In this mode, source Vdc1 is active, so that only this source provides the energy to the load. Because of the Vdc1 is active then diode D1 is forward biased and diode D3 is reverse biased, so current follows from diode D1 to Z- network to the load.

      In reverse path from load to the source, current cant pass through source 2 and D2, so D4 is forcedly turned on and conduct current to source 1. In this state, converter input dc voltage is only provided by source 1, as (2) shows.

    3. Mode 3, Vdc1 is inactive and Vdc2 is active

      If Vdc1 is switched off mode for each reason and Vdc2 is active mode, the chopper converter can operate normally without effect of Vdc1. Fig. 4 shows the equivalent circuit for this mode. In mode3, the Vdc2 only that supplies power to the converter and load. Vdc2 activation causes forward bias of diode D2 and reverse bias of diode D4. Because of source 1 disconnection, current passes through D3 and indeed, current turns it on forcedly to complete current path. In this state, converter input dc voltage is only provided by source 2, as (3) shows.

    4. Mode 4, Vdc1 and Vdc2 are inactive

    In generally, this mode4 is to be only following one of the previously mentioned 3 modes. why Because in this mode the two sources Vdc1 and Vdc2 are inactive and sources are disconnected from the converter, diode D1 And diode D2 are forcedly switched off ,then the only existing path for remain current, from previous mode, is to be provided by diode D3 and diode D4. In this mode4 diode D3 and diode D4 are switched on. Fig.5 shows the equivalent circuit of this mode. The Input voltage is zero in this mode as shown in (4).

    = 0 .. (4)

    Because of both Vdc1 and Vdc2 are inactive modes so that dc sources are disconnected from the converter, duration of this mode is very short time period and when the current descends to zero, whole of the converter will be inactive mode.

  2. STEADY STATE ANALYSIS OF DC MACHINE BY USING DUAL INPUT Z-SOURCE

    CHOPPER CONVERTER

    All 4 modes of dual input Z-source chopper converter can be analyzed, but in this section only first mode is analyzed which is to be applied to the other modes of chopper converter. Fig. 3 is considered for the steady state analysis of dual input z-source chopper converter.

    Similar way the other Z-source converter modes can be analyzed, the inductors L1, inductor L2 and capacitors C1 , capacitor C2 have the same value of inductance (L) and capacitance (C). From the symmetry and the equivalent circuits, the inductor (L) and capacitor (C) voltages have following relations.

    VC1= VC2= VC, VL1 = VL2 VL (5)

    There are two states of operations are there for steady state analysis of chopper converter circuit. In state1 diodes D1 and diode D2 are switched on and the switch S is switched off. In the converter circuit Z-network capacitors are charged, while Z-network inductors are discharged and

    In state 2, the switch S to be turned on and diode D1 and diode D2 are turned off. The Z-network capacitors C1, C2
