Abstract

Method and control system for controlling a bridgeless boost converter, comprising a first measuring unit measuring a first value representing a first current through a first boost switch (Sb1) of the bridgeless boost converter; a second measuring unit measuring a second value representing a second current through a second boost switch (Sb2) of the bridgeless boost converter; a third current measuring unit measuring a third value representing a third current representing the sum of the currents through the components of a stabilization system. A measured signal up is computed by means of the first, second and third currents. A reference signal representing the input voltage Vac is formed. The measured signal up and the reference signal representing the input voltage Vac are input to the control system for controlling the switches (Sb1, Sb2) so that the measured signal up is substantially in phase with the reference signal representing the input voltage Vac.

The present invention relates to a plate stack for use in a heat exchanger, a heat exchanger and a method for exchanging heat between two flowing fluids. A plate stack for use in a heat exchanger comprising at least two first plates 41A and at least one second plate 41B and where the plates at two opposite edges comprises at least one raised arc inlet portion and one sunken arc inlet portion arranged when assembled form an opening for the first fluid flow between the one first plate 41A and the one second plate 41B and an opening 403,403B for the second fluid flow between the one second plate 41B and the second first plate 41A'. The invention also regards a heat exchanger where such a plate stack is used and a method for exchanging heat between two fluid flows. Such a heat exchanger may for instance be used in an outdoor cabinet, and gives a possibility of crating a hermetic cooling and preventing dust from entering the cabinet.
