This paper introduces a scaled hardware model for the 10kVA, 1kV, 11-level MMC (Modular Multilevel Converter), which was manufactured in the lab based on computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC. Various experiments were conducted to verify the major operation algorithms of MMC. The hardware scaled-model developed in the lab can be utilized for analyzing the operation analysis and performance evaluation of MMC according to the modulation pattern and redundancy operation scheme.

본 논문에서는 Modular Multilevel Converter(MMC)의 전 영역 운전을 위한 제어 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이론적으로, MMC 시스템에서 셀 캐패시터 전압 맥동은 출력 주파수에 반비례하고 출력 전류에 비례한다. 따라서 교류 전동기의 기동 토크 인가 또는 저속 운전 시에 각 셀 캐패시터의 전압 맥동이 과도하게 커져 시스템 동작이 불가능하다는 단점이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 이를 극복하기 위한 방법을 제안하고 실험을 통해 그 유효성을 살펴보도록 한다.

This paper proposes parameter design principle of the sub-module capacitance, Arm inductance and a control method to reduced the circulating currents in modular multilevel converter(MMC) under unbalanced voltage conditions. Under balanced voltage conditions, only negative-sequence circulating currents exist. Consequently, the conventional method has considered only negative-sequence circulating currents in MMC. However, under unbalanced voltage conditions, there are positive-sequence, zero-sequence and negative-sequence circulating currents in MMC. Thus, under unbalanced voltage conditions, a control method should consider these all components. This study proposes the control method to reduced the circulating currents under the unbalanced voltage.

The industrial products to use single phase inverter are raised the necessity of power quality improvement, such as AC Motor Driver, Lighting, Renewable energy power converter. Also, it is increasing that applied the single phase multilevel inverter for high quality power at renewable energy power converter. Especially, the photovoltaic multilevel inverters have at least more than two DC_Link and more than one DC/DC Converter. This paper proposes a triple output DC/DC Converter with one switch for photovoltaic multilevel inverter. The proposed converter has advantages of low cost and volume because it has one switch. The operation principle of the converter is analyzed and verified. A prototype is implemented to verify of the proposed converter.

This paper proposes a new snubber circuit for multilevel inverter and converter. The snubber circuit makes use of Undeland snubber as basic snubber unit and can be regarded as a generalized Undeland snubber. The proposed snubber keeps such good features as fewer number of components, improved efficiency due to low loss snubber, capability of clamping overvoltage across main switching devices, and no unbalance problem of blocking voltage. Furthermore, the proposed concept of constructing a snubber circuit for multilevel inverter and converter can apply to any kind of basic snubber unit such as Holtz nondissipative snubber, McMurray efficient snubber, Lauritzen lossless snubber, etc which have been utilized for two-level inverter.

This paper proposes a new control scheme of lithium ion battery units based on single phase multi-level converter. In the DC/AC converter applications using battery storage system, it is necessary to control the balancing voltage of individual battery units for high efficiency utilization. Using the proposed control scheme, the DC/AC single phase converter system is applied. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme, computer simulation is accomplished. In the computer simulation, lithium-ion battery units and single phase multi-level converter system are modeled and carried out using Psim simulation program. It will be helpful for design and applications of energy storage system with lithium-ion battery.

Active hybrid solid state transformer(AHSST) is newly emerging as a device to maintan the power quality of power distribution. AHSST has a simple structure in which a power electronics device is connected in series to a conventional distribution transformer. The connected power electronics device maintains the constant voltage regardless of the primary grid voltage fluctuation through the secondary voltage control to improve the power quality. It also has a simple structure compare to conventional solid state transformer system and can achieve the same performance with fractionally-rated converter. This paper proposes an multi-level converter based on AHSST system that has a simpler control method and wider voltage control range than the conventional AHSST. The proposed system is verified by simulations.

This paper proposes a snubber circuit for flying capacitor multilevel inverter and converter. The proposed snubber circuit makes use of Undeland snubber as basic snubber unit. It has such an advantage of Undeland snubber used in the two-level inverter. Compared with conventional RCD/RLD snubber for multileve1 inverter and converter, the proposed snubber keeps such good features as fewer number of components, reduction of voltage stress of main switching devices due to low overvoltage, and improved efficiency of system due to low loss snubber. In this paper, the proposed snubber is applied to three-level flying capacitor inverter and this feature is demonstrated by computer simulation and experimental result.
