A new way is given to describe the independent and dependent design variables of the power train of a dc-to-dc converter in terms of a multidimensional design-parameter space. These concepts provide a framework for examining the problem of design optimization of the power train, with particular emphasis on the maximization of converter efficiency. Numerous examples of important parameterspace surfaces illustrate some of the major relationships between core volume, switching frequency, and output power and between efficiency, ripple, and temperature rise of the energy-storage reactor. Also, the difference in performance between the continuous and discontinuous magnetomotive (MMF) force modes of operation is explored.
