Dc/Dc Converter For A Small Scale Wind Hydrogen System, Joel M. Jacobs
Dc/Dc Converter For A Small Scale Wind Hydrogen System, Joel M. Jacobs
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
An electronic converter is designed for an isolated renewable energy system. In this system, energy produced by a small wind turbine is used to extract hydrogen from water. Unique aspects of this application that affect the performance of the converter will be defined. Design considerations of the individual components will be discussed. Calculations on performance and validation of those calculations are also presented. Lastly, an economic analysis of the produced hydrogen will be performed.
