Abstract

The bicycle trainer is connected to the grid by using a bicycle as a mechanical source to drive a DC brushless generator. Then convert the AC voltage to DC voltage to be an energy source for the single-phase inverter connected to the grid. The output voltage from the inverter connected to the grid has a value of 12 volts AC and uses a step-up transformer to raise the voltage to 220 volts AC. The inverter connected to the grid using a single-band hysteresis current control technique. Perform a rectifying mode, step-up voltage or boost converter mode, and inverter connected to the grid mode. Testing result the bicycle trainer connected to the grid measured the real power of 109 watts with a power factor of 0.92 in boost converter mode under load conditions and the inverter connected to the grid was able to supply real power of 107 watts and with a power factor of 0.98. The efficiency of the single-phase inverter connected to the grid equals 63.7%.
