Abstract

The article examines methodologies and algorithms for the automated study of modular-structure DC-DC converters (DCC) that combine single-phase and multi-phase conversion principles. An informational model of a software suite is proposed, enabling the investi- gation of time-domain and energy parameters of DCC and the assessment of their efficiency and quality indicators of electrical processes. Special attention is paid to the development of specialized software that implements the proposed generalized mathematical model and provides flexible parameter configuration (accumulation and transformation coefficients, etc.). The advantages of separating the calculation tasks into individual subprograms covering basic parameters, time-domain dependencies, quality indicators, and energy characteristics are substantiated. The proposed algorithms and software modules expand the computational capabilities of automated design systems while improving the accuracy and reliability of analyzing DCC with various types of power channels (buck, boost, and inverting).
