Abstract

The three-level voltage source inverter (VSI) is good topology for high voltage and high power applications where no semiconductor devices are available. However, it has an inherent problem of switching loss and midpoint charge balance. Therefore, this paper presents two ways. The one is to adopt ZCT soft-switching method to the conventional three-level VSI. The another is to be proposed the method of the midpoint charge balance in three-level VSI. To prove the proposed topology, the paper presents a comprehensive evaluation with theoretical analysis, simulation and experimental results.
