DC- DC Converter for Energy Storage System with Different Inductor Implementations

This paper presents an evaluation of the operating modes of a DC/DC buck converter with various inductor configurations. Since real-world DC and AC losses can be limited by using various designs or configurations of switching inductors, a study is carried out to determine the losses and the influence on other parameters such the volume and mass constraints, cost and ease of implementation in order to obtain optimal design and parameters of the converter.
