Notice: As of 2014 and for the forthcoming years, the publication frequency/periodicity of WSEAS Journals is adapted to the 'continuously updated' model. What this means is that instead of being separated into issues, new papers will be added on a continuous basis, allowing a more regular flow and shorter publication times. The papers will appear in reverse order, therefore the most recent one will be on top.

ABSTRACT: The following paperwork presents an investigation of multiphase resonant converters for applications in energy storage systems. Models of the examined converters are developed in the software environments of MATLAB and LTspice. Results from simulation examination of the converters during charging of supercapacitors and rechargeable batteries are presented. The influence of the component values variation in one of the modules is investigated. Normalized values of the main circuit currents and voltages are presented. The obtained simulation results are compared to experimental results obtained from a laboratory stand. The presented characteristics provide opportunity for assessment of the converter behavior, as well as, considerations for the design of the modules.
