Abstract: In the modern times, the pertinence of a single power electronics conversion system used in DC microgrids for facilitating energy transfer between energy generating systems and storage elements with inherent bidirectional capability has increased significantly. A dual active bridge (DAB) converter having two DC-AC converters connected back to back through a high frequency transformer is used as a power electronics conversion system for obtaining highly efficient bidirectional power conversion. In this paper, performance of DAB converter with single phase shift (SPS) is evaluated with solar photovoltaic cell on high voltage DC-bus and battery on the low voltage DC-bus. Linear load is connected in this system at the high voltage DC-bus. A step variation in load is applied and at this instant the power flows from the batteries to supply the increased load demand. Optimal operating range of converter along-with efficiency is obtained.
