Based on the analysis of the relationship aµong the inductance value, duty cycle and coupling coefficient under different µodes of the converter, this paper finds the functional relationship between the converter ripple current and the coupling coefficient. The siµulation results show that when the coupling coefficient is greater than 0, the current ripple decreases on the low-voltage side gradually as the coupling coefficient increases. Finally, a 150W experiµental prototype is built for verification. The efficiency of the converter is 91.28%. When the coupling coefficients are 0.15 ,0.63 and 0.82, the current ripple on the low-voltage side was reduced by 9.88%, 37.03% and 44.44%, respectively. bidirectional DC/DC converter coupled inductor current ripple magnetic integration Switching capacitors Full Text Additional Declarations No competing interests reported.
