Abstract
The project will consist of the design and building of a DC-DC Flyback converter to increase efficiency in solar panels by tracking the maximum power point given a specific insolation and solar panel temperature. This subsystem, in addition to two others designed by two different students, will represent the functioning of a solar facility with storage and an inverter to connect the panel to the grid. The DC-DC converter project will involve the study, construction, and results analysis of the electrical part (circuitry and magnetic components) excluding the control of the converter. This work can be carried out by another student in the future. The project will include a brief explanation of the background including the location of the desired converter, component calculation, simulation, and result analysis from the real circuit constructed.
