This work describes the study, the analysis, the project methodology and the constructive details of a high frequency DC/AC resonant series converter using sequential commutation techniques for the excitation of an inductive coupled thermal plasma torch. The aim of this thesis is to show the new modulation technique potentialities and to present a technological option for the high-frequency electronic power converters development. The resonant converter operates at 50 kW output power under a 400 kHz frequency and it is constituted by inverter cells using ultra-fast IGBT devices. In order to minimize the turn-off losses, the inverter cells operates in a ZVS mode referred by a modified PLL loop that maintains this condition stable, despite the load variations. The sequential pulse gating command strategy used it allows to operate the IGBT devices on its maximum power limits using the derating and destressing current scheme, as well as it propitiates a frequency multiplication of the inverters set. The output converter is connected to a series resonant circuit constituted by the applicator ICTP torch, a compensation capacitor and an impedance matching RF transformer. At the final, are presented the experimental results and the many tests achieved in laboratory as form to validate the proposed new technique

In recent years the photovoltaic generation has had greater insertion in the energy mix of the most developed countries, growing at annual rates of over 30%. The pressure for the reduction of pollutant emissions, diversification of the energy mix and the drop in prices are the main factors driving this growth. Grid tied systems plays an important role in alleviating the energy crisis and diversification of energy sources. Among the grid tied systems, building integrated photovoltaic systems suffers from partial shading of the photovoltaic modules and consequently the energy yield is reduced. In such cases, classical forms of modules connection do not produce good results and new techniques have been developed to increase the amount of energy produced by a set of modules. In the parallel connection technique of photovoltaic modules, a high voltage gain DC-DC converter is required, which is relatively complex to build with high efficiency. The current-fed isolated converters explored in this work have some desirable characteristics for this type of application, such as: low input current ripple and input voltage ripple, high voltage gain, galvanic isolation, feature high power capacity and it achieve soft switching in a wide operating range. This study presents contributions to the study of a high gain and high efficiency DC-DC converter for use in a parallel system of photovoltaic generation, being possible the use in a microinverter or with central inverter. The main contributions of this work are: analysis of the active clamping circuit operation proposing that the clamp capacitor connection must be done on the negative node of the power supply to reduce the input current ripple and thus reduce the filter requirements; use of a voltage doubler in the output rectifier to reduce the number of components and to extend the gain of the converter; detailed study of the converter components in order to raise the efficiency; obtaining the AC equivalent model and control system design. As a result, a DC-DC converter with high gain, high efficiency and without electrolytic capacitors in the power stage was developed. In the final part of this work the DC-DC converter operation connected to an inverter is presented. Besides, the DC bus controller is designed and are implemented two maximum power point tracking algorithms. Experimental results of full system operation connected to an emulator and subsequently to a real photovoltaic module are also given.

This paper shows the modeling and control of a single-phase full-bridge inverter with high-frequency transformer that may be used as part of a two-stage converter with transformerless DC-DC side or as a single-stage converter (simple DC-AC converter) for grid-connected PV applications. The inverter is modeled in order to obtain a small-signal transfer function used to design the P+Resonant current controller. A highfrequency step-up transformer results in reduced voltage switches and better efficiency compared with converters in which the transformer is used on the DC-DC side. Simulations and experimental results with a 200 W prototype are shown. 1

Este trabalho baseia se na necessidade de aumentar as fontes renováveis de energia, reduzindo assim a dependência de fontes não renováveis, principalmente as poluentes como as de provenientes de combustíveis fosseis. A fonte de energia renovável explorada neste trabalho é a advinda de energia solar, com a utilização de painéis solares e métodos de extração para converter esta energia em energia elétrica e assim poder utilizar esta energia de forma eficiente. A energia produzida por painéis fotovoltaicos se apresenta em forma de corrente continua, tendo assim a necessidade do uso de conversores CC-CA, ou ditos inversores de tensão, para utilização da mesma, já que a maioria do equipamentos que utilizam energia elétrica são construídos em forma a serem abastecidos com energia elétrica em corrente alternada. Como este trabalho foca na injeção da energia produzida pelos painéis FV na rede de distribuição de baixa tensão, faz se necessário o uso de um PLL para garantir que o sistema inversor esteja em sincronismo com a rede de distribuição e possa garantir a entrega de energia ativa. Por fim mas não menos importante, é utilizado neste projeto técnicas de MPPT para garantir um maior aproveitamento da energia proveniente dos painéis FV, ajudando assim a melhorar a eficácia deste tipo de energia, sendo mais fiável e viável.

The 15q24.1 locus, including CYP1A2, is associated with blood pressure (BP). The CYP1A2 rs762551 C allele is associated with lower CYP1A2 enzyme activity. CYP1A2 metabolizes caffeine and is induced by smoking. The association of caffeine consumption with hypertension remains controversial. We explored the effects of CYP1A2 variants and CYP1A2 enzyme activity on BP, focusing on caffeine as the potential mediator of CYP1A2 effects. Four observational (n = 16 719) and one quasi-experimental studies (n = 106) including European adults were conducted. Outcome measures were BP, caffeine intake, CYP1A2 activity and polymorphisms rs762551, rs1133323 and rs1378942. CYP1A2 variants were associated with hypertension in non-smokers, but not in smokers (CYP1A2-smoking interaction P = 0.01). Odds ratios (95% CIs) for hypertension for rs762551 CC, CA and AA genotypes were 1 (reference), 0.78 (0.59-1.02) and 0.66 (0.50-0.86), respectively, P = 0.004. Results were similar for the other variants. Higher CYP1A2 activity was linearly associated with lower BP after quitting smoking (P = 0.049 and P = 0.02 for systolic and diastolic BP, respectively), but not while smoking. In non-smokers, the CYP1A2 variants were associated with higher reported caffeine intake, which in turn was associated with lower odds of hypertension and lower BP (P = 0.01). In Mendelian randomization analyses using rs1133323 as instrument, each cup of caffeinated beverage was negatively associated with systolic BP [-9.57 (-16.22, -2.91) mmHg]. The associations of CYP1A2 variants with BP were modified by reported caffeine intake. These observational and quasi-experimental results strongly support a causal role of CYP1A2 in BP control via caffeine intake.

Ao longo dos últimos anos a indústria microelectrónica tem evoluído no sentido de reduzir o consumo energético dos seus dispositivos no sentido de estes serem alimentados por fontes energéticas diversas, nomeadamente fontes renováveis. A crescente demanda por componentes energeticamente eficientes e pela miniaturização dos componentes eletrónicos exigem a conceção de fontes de alimentação com potência reduzida na ordem das dezenas de μW ás centenas de mW. Atualmente, com os crescentes avanços tecnológicos é possível obter componentes energéticamente eficientes e com tamanhos reduzidos capazes de colmatar as restrições energéticas das mais variadas aplicações. A utilização de fontes energia elétrica que tirão proveito da energia existente no meio onde se inserem os diversos dispositivos eletrónicos ou simplesmente para recarregar as baterias, apresenta-se como um dos principais objetivos a alcançar. Entre todas as energias renováveis, a energia fotovoltaica surge como umas das que proporciona um maior potencial. A sua disponibilidade global e os constantes desenvolvimentos tecnológicos no âmbito do fotovoltaico permitem o desenvolvimento de sistemas de alimentação com rendimento energético cada vez mais elevado. A presente dissertação tem como objetivo o estudo, a simulação e implementação de um conversor CC-CC, step-up, com algoritmo de controlo MPPT integrado designado por método de correlação de ripple (Ripple Correlation Control – RCC), para aplicações de baixa potência na ordem das dezenas de μW às centenas de mW. Desenvolveu-se um conversor CC-CC, autónomo, para carregamento de baterias com recurso a painéis fotovoltaicos, como fonte de energia, de forma contínua mesmo em situações de baixa luminosidade. Um circuito de gestão de energia devidamente dimensionado foi implementado com recurso a um algoritmo de procura do ponto de máxima potência (Maximum Power Point Tracking – MPPT). O objetivo desta implementação é extrair a máxima potência disponível da fonte de energia elétrica, neste caso o painel fotovoltaico, independentemente das condições meteorológicas e da potência requerida pela carga, sendo o excesso de energia redirecionado para a bateria. Nesta dissertação apresentam-se os resultados das simulações, assim como os resultados experimentais de todos os circuitos desenvolvidos de forma a validar todo o sistema implementado.
