Battery Connected DC-DC Converter Duty Cycle from "Green Hydrogen Microgrid"

Hello, I am using the "Green Hydrogen Microgrid" model, but I'm trying to change the battery DC-DC Converter to run off of a duty cycle pulse. The pulse was created to be 1's and 0's when the solar power is below a ceritian range. However, when I change the battery/storage connected DC-DC converter, I run into multiple problems. If I use the buck boost converter, then I recieve various errors such as "input voltage must be greater than or equal to zero". Is there a way I can get this model to run with the battery connected DC-DC converter utilizing a duty cycle pulse. Thank you for the help.

It appears that the DC-link voltage is going to negative values which will trigger an error. Can you provide a sample model?

I have attached a copy of my model with an image of the solar and pulse generation over time. The pulse generated would control the duty cycle of the DC-DC converter. I've carried the signal over to the battery storage module but left it unconnected to prevent errors when starting the simulation.

The model is missing CompressorMapSpeedLines.mat. Are you trying to use the PWM signal to control the DC-DC converter or the duty cycle? If you want to use the pulse that will slow down the simulation. If you preffer to use the duty cycle as a value between 0 and 1 (but not a pulse) that can be done without any impact to simulation speed.

Yes, sorry I thought I resolved the compressor problem after attaching the slx file. I'm not sure how to save the imported Base Workspace variables from " ee_electrolyzer_grid_nh3.m" which contains the compressor data. I would be fine with either just to get the DC-DC Converter controled by this signal.
