This paper presents a new asymmetrical single-phase multilevel inverter topology capable of producing nine-level output voltage with reduce device counts. In order to obtain the desired output voltage, dc sources are connected in all the combination of addition and subtraction through different switches. Proposed topology results in reduction of dc source, switch counts, losses, cost and size of the...
Space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) is widely used because of their easier digital realization and better DC bus utilization and lower THD. Various types of SVPWM strategies exist. The hybrid SVPWM strategy considers various SVPWM sequences and places the best performance sequence for a given reference vector and it proves to be superior in comparison with the conventional strategies. This...
This paper proposes a novel configuration of six phase IM to drive from a three phase stacked multilevel inverter. Apart from greater fault tolerance compared to three phase, a six phase machine enables the use of low voltage devices for the inverter. Also the inverter used here is a three phase nine level stacked inverter which itself uses low voltage devices. Thus MOSFETs can be used for the inverter...
In this paper a generalized formulation for Selective Harmonic Mitigation Pulse Amplitude Modulation (SHM-PAM) has been presented to control Cascaded H-bridge (CHB) inverter with non-equal DC sources. Consistent with the proposed SHM-PAM technique, switching angles are attained constant while the calculated magnitudes of DC sources vary linearly for all modulation indexes (ma). In fact, in the SHM-PAM,...
Solar energy is a promising alternative energy source for a sustainable pollution-free future. Due to the requirements of high efficiency, reliability, power density and low cost, transformerless PV inverters can be utilized in a grid-connected solar energy system. However, this suffers from no galvanic isolation and leakage currents through the stray capacitances between the PV array and the ground...
Considering the ongoing paradigm shift of large scale solar plants from central inverters to multistring inverters, new associated logistic requirements have highlighted the need to lower the weight of power converters without compromising efficiency and reliability. To meet this need, Silicon carbide based semiconductors are considered an enabling technology as they allow weight reduction in power...
This paper discusses the design and topology of the indirect matrix converter. The double space vector modulation technique (DSVPWM) is applied on the system and a unity power factor was accomplished along with desired sinusoidal input and output waveforms. The whole system is simulated using Matlab/Simulink, and the results prove to comply with the existing power quality standards.
In this paper, a new multilevel inverter topology which can be operated in both symmetrical and asymmetrical configurations has been proposed. In order to produce all steps of voltage at output, four different algorithms are proposed to find the value of DC sources. The proposed topology reduce switch count, gate driver circuits, total voltage blocking capability and isolated DC voltage sources which...
The impedance source inverter family has become one of the most interesting alternatives for wind and photo-voltaic energies applications which require high conversion ratio. The main drawback of these inverters is related to the modulation signal which must be used to control the output current and voltage conversion ratio simultaneously. To deal with this problem several modulation techniques and...
In this paper, a three-phase five level inverter with new balancing algorithm is proposed using Selective Harmonics Elimination PWM. The inverter is fed photovoltaic generator as dc source. 36 redundant vectors are making use for the 12 unbalance cases of four capacitor voltages instead of 24 cases presented in the previous works. The obtained results show that the frequency of the PWM is unchanged.
