Hello,
Dear RG researchers,
as I am working on my thesis; I need a Simulink-model of the reversible boost converter (preferably with a control on dc-link voltage). As a matter of fact, my field of study is power system engineering and I've not worked a lot on power electronic issues.
I would be really grateful if anybody could help me with this.
Regards,
Akbar Amirian.
Will you please elaborate what does it mean by reversible boost converter

Probably you mean a Reversible Converter to be used in Traction to recover Regenerative Braking Power.

Most existing power converters and industrial motor drive systems draw non-sinusoidal currents from the supply. Non-sinusoidal currents contained harm harmonics disturb the power supply which it causes serious concern for reliability. Other equipments that use the same power supply are adversely affected. This paper suggests the operation and performance of a new modified AC/DC converter that allows bi-directional power flow. It also provides improved power factor and reduces harmonic magnitude and disturbance to the supply by system. The bi-directional feature allows recovery of regenerative energy of loads, back to the power supply and the converters. The proposed converter has high potential for industrial applications, such as electronically controlled traction system, lifts and generally industrial motor drive systems which can increase overall efficiency and reliability.

P.S.
Reversible boost converter refers to a Dc-to-DC converter which can transmit power in both forward and backward directions.
For short, i mean a bi-directional boost converter.
