Different modeling approaches for an isolated bidirectional dc-dc converter are investigated to be used in analysis and simulation of a hybrid electric ship. The models are verified by comparison with simulation results of detailed switching model in PLECS software. The advantages and disadvantages of different modeling methods are discussed. A unified model for both buck and boost modes is proposed for current control applications, using the preferable method. Finally, the simulation results
