For a Voltage Source Converter based High Voltage Direct Current Transmission(VSC-HVDC)system the most important part is the VSC part because it determines main performance of the whole system. This paper proposed a new topology of PWM AC/DC converter which is cascaded VIENNA rectifier. In addition, in this paper a current controller based on the working modes of three-phase VIENNA rectifier will...
Multi-MW wind power converters are widely applied in wind power field. Converters are paralleled to expand converter's capacity. Due to the wind power fluctuation, IGBT's power handling ability together with its drive power is fluctuating largely and rapidly, which will cause a large temperature variation, affecting the reliability and lifetime of power semiconductors. In this paper, the thermal smooth...
The number of high voltage direct current transmission (HVDC) installations is growing rapidly nowadays, and network operators are working to define grid codes that regulate behaviors of HVDC system to operate under different conditions. This paper presents implementation of a small-scale HVDC lab prototype, which aims at studying the characteristics of the VSC-HVDC system and meeting the requirements...
This paper proposes an AC-AC converter, which consists of T-type three-level rectifier and inverter, for an on-line UPS. The switching loss of the proposed AC-AC converter is drastically reduced because the proposed converter is driven at a very low switching frequency which is six times of input side frequency. The T-type rectifier separates the maximum phase-voltage, medium phase-voltage and minimum...
Wireless power transmission via magnetic resonance has been attracted and interested as long range wireless power transmission method. As a consequence, high-frequency inverter operating under high power conversion efficiency is required. In this paper, power conversion efficiency and power transmission efficiency of full bridge inverter using GaN devices are evaluated and discussed from the experimental...
In AC/DC hybrid grid, the individual AC and DC grids exist. The power converters are the key interfaces between these two kinds of individual grids. Under unbalance AC grid, the grid voltage is distorted and the harmonics is involved. Therefore, the active power and reactive power also give rise to the uncontrolled oscillations, which will damage the interface converters. In order to ensure the safety...
Predictive control is attracting more and more attention in the area of power converters and motor drives. Among various predictive control methods, finite control set model predictive control (FCSMPC) and direct current control (DCC) are two well-known approaches. FCSMPC is a powerful control method, because it takes the precise mathematical model into consideration and is easy to consider various...
In this paper, interleaved LLC half-bridge resonant converters are designed and implemented. In order to increase output power, two LLC resonant converters are parallel-connected. The gate driver signals of two LLC converters are interleaved by 90° to reduce output-current ripple. Besides, switch losses on power devices can be reduced by zero voltage switching (ZVS) and zero current switching (ZCS)...
