HW8 DCM equations derivation

Has anyone attempted the first question? Any hints on how to start?

You should easily get the first two equations just by applying sine/cosine rule. just focus on triangle which has beta angle and radius in this case is 1.

I am stuck with fourth equation. Any hints?
how do I introduce angle terms in the equation?

This is where I'm stuck too. I have 2 relationships from the boundary conditions....equation 3 from (5-45) which comes from the 2 boundary condition relationships solved like in the chapter notes....equation 5 is by definition and equation 6 comes from similar procedures as in class lecture............

Given that: I'm not sure what equations to manipulate, sub into each other, to get the 4th relation.....???

Hi All,

I don't know if this going to help or not, I am still struggle too.

I try to get a hint from time domain plot (pg 22). Here is what I found:
On time domain plot, during dicontinous period wo*t = alpha...tilta, inductor current raise from IL1 to I. The equation for this can be written as:

I - IL1 = Vg/L * (tilta - alpha)/wo
then, it can be writen as:
(I - IL1) * L*wo / Vg = tilta - alpha

Note: Vg/(L*wo) = Ibase, then I/Ibase = J,
and IL1/Ibase = JL1.
Thus, equation above can be written as:
J - JL1 = tilta - alpha

The last step, that I am still struggle is how
to express JL1 as function of alpha, beta, and J.

Vojkan - Thanks for the post, it was very helpful to me. When going through the JL0 boundary case, it is not clear to me how to choose the angles in DCM. I chose sigma = pi - beta. In this case JL0 = J+r2*sin(sigma) = J+r2*sin(β). How did you cancel out the r2 term on the left-hand side?

r2 = 1 for DCM

From JL0 boundary condition we can get equation A:
sin(β)=sin(α)-(J+JL1)*cos(α)
From Mc0 boundary condition we can get equation B:
2-cos(β)=cos(α)+(J+JL1)*sin(α)


Pb1 Equation 3: can be obtained by:
sin(α)*equation A+cos(α)*equation B

Pb1 Equation 4: can be obtained by:
sin(α)*equation B-cos(α)*equation A

Determine arc radii r1 and r2:
r2=1
ζ=0
r1*sin(ξ)=J+JL1
r1*cos(ξ)=1

JL0 boundary condition:
JL0=J+sin(β)
JL0=J+r1*sin(α-ξ)
The result is eq. A: sin(β)=sin(α)-(J+JL1)*cos(α)

Mc0 boundary condition:
Mc0=1-cos(β)
Mc0=r1*cos(α-ξ)-1
The result is eq. B: 2-cos(β)=cos(α)+(J+JL1)*sin(α)
