Partial shading condition (PSC) for photovoltaic (PV) arrays complicates the operation of PV systems at peak power due to the existence of multiple peak points on the power–voltage (P–V) characteristic curve. Identifying the global peak among multiple peaks presents challenges, as the system may become trapped at a local peak, potentially resulting in significant power loss. Power generation is reduced, and hot-spot issues might arise, which can cause shaded modules to fail, under the partly shaded case. In this paper, instead of focusing on local peaks, several effective, precise, and dependable maximum power point tracker (MPPT) systems monitor the global peak using a fuzzy logic controller. The suggested method can monitor the total of all PV array peaks using an interleaved boost converter DC/DC (IBC), not only the global peaks. A DC/DC class boost converter (CBC), the current gold standard for traditional control methods, is pitted against the suggested converter. Four PSC-PV systems employ three-phase inverters to connect their converters to the power grid.

In this article, a comparison of innovative multilevel inverter topology with standard topologies has been conducted. The proposed single phase five level inverter topology has been used for induction heating system. This suggested design generates five voltage levels with a fewer number of power switches. This reduction in number of switches decreases the switching losses and the number of driving circuits and reduce the complexity of control circuit. It also reduces the cost and size for the filter used. Analysis and comparison has been done among the conventional topologies (neutral clamped and cascade H-bridge multilevel inverters) with the proposed inverter topology. The analysis includes the total harmonic distortion THD, efficiency and overall performance of the inverter systems. The simulation and analysis have been done using MATLAB/ SIMULINK. The results show good performance for the proposed topology in comparison with the conventional topologies.

In this work, the phase lock loop PLL-based controller has been adopted for tracking the resonant frequency to achieve maximum power transfer between the power source and the resonant load. The soft switching approach has been obtained to reduce switching losses and improve the overall efficiency of the induction heating system. The jury’s stability test has been used to evaluate the system’s stability. In this article, a multilevel inverter has been used with a series resonant load for an induction heating system to clarify the effectiveness of using it over the conventional full-bridge inverter used for induction heating purposes. Reduced switches five-level inverter has been implemented to minimize switching losses, the number of drive circuits, and the control circuit’s complexity. A comparison has been made between the conventional induction heating system with full bridge inverter and the induction heating system with five level inverter in terms of overall efficiency and total harmonic distortion THD. MATLAB/ SIMULINK has been used for modeling and analysis. The mathematical analysis associated with simulation results shows that the proposed topology and control system performs well.
