Energies 2016,9, 410 Figure 21 summarizes themeasured conversion efficiency of the studiedBDC in charge and discharge states. On the experimental porotype system, the conversionefficiency ismeasuredvia precisedigitalpowermeterWT310equipment,manufacturedbytheYokogawaElectricCorporation (Tokyo, Japan). Theaccuracyof themeasuredpower iswithin+/´0.1%. It canbe seen that from Figure21, themeasuredhighest conversionefficiency is 95%indischarge state and is around96% incharge state. Inorder to clarify theactualmeasuredconversionefficiency further, basedon the equations inTable 2, the calculatedpower lossdistributionat the rated load condition is listed in Table3,andfurthermore, thecalculated lossesbreakdowndiagramsof thestudiedBDCaredepicted inFigure22. FromTable3andFigure22,onecansee that thepower lossesmainlyoccur in thecopper lossof the inductors, switching lossandconduction lossof theMOSFETs. Thetotalpower losses in chargeanddischarge states are 28.5Wand28.6W,accounting for 5.70%and5.73%, in rated load condition, respectively. Thesematchwell themeasuredconversionefficiencyof thestudiedBDCin charge (94.29%)anddischarge (94.25%)states. 2XWSXW 3RZHU : &KDUJH 6WDWH 'LVFKDUJH 6WDWH Figure 21.
