The most stressful operation point for the inverter of an electric vehicle drive is at low speed. In this operation point, one power semiconductor is mainly stressed because of a high loss concentration. The possibilities of distributing the losses among the power semiconductors through a new modulation is studied for the three-level NPC and the T-Type inverter. The effect of the proposed modulation...
The modular multilevel converter (MMC) has become a very attractive solution for interfacing high voltages hybrid networks. The MMC enables scalability to different power levels, full controllability provided by IGBTs and can achieve very high efficiencies by using a low switching frequency method as the nearest level modulation (NLM). However, in order to limit failures of the power modules, the...
Transformerless (TL) topologies are employed in 1φ PV inverter topologies due to their small size and low weight. Avoiding the grid side transformer requires the modulation technique and the basis topology to be accordingly changed in order to mitigate dc current components in the grid side and the leakage current to ground. This paper carries out a sensitivity analysis of selected TL topologies....
Transformerless PV inverter topologies allow the PV inverter size and weight to be reduced while reaching a higher efficiency. The drawbacks of these topologies are that DC current components at the grid side must be cancelled by means of the employed controller and the number of power devices required to avoid currents through the parasitic capacitor of the PV generator increases. These topologies...
