This work presents a study of the application of the Full-bridge bidirectional DC converter as a battery bank charger in a DC bus of renewable energy sources. The main problem is that these sources are seasonal and do not offer a continuously power supply. Thus, the use of a battery bank connected to a DC bus shared with other renewable sources brings contributions in the continuity of power supply. The converter proposed in this work aims to connect the battery bank to the DC bus at the same time it integrates the charging and discharging modes into a single converter. Additionally, to reduce the volume, it is used a planar transformer that provides high efficiency (up to 99.5%) and a reduced volume/power ratio. The converter is designed to charge a bank of batteries of 192V. At the discharge mode, it is designed to feed a 400V DC bus with maximum power of 1.34 kW. Despite the use of the full-bridge converter is not new in these types of application, two factors served as motivation for this work: the use of planar transformer and the global trend of integration of renewable sources.
