In this paper, a new three-phase voltage-source inverter topology for high voltage and high Power applications is proposed to improve the quality of output voltage waveform. A chain converter which is used as an auxiliary circuit generates a ripple voltage and injects it to the conventional 12-step inverter. Thus, the injection of the ripple voltage results in 36-step operation with a link and 60-step operation with two links. The proposed inverter is compared to the conventional multilevel inverter in the viewpoint of ratings of phase- shifting transformers, switching devices and capacitors employed. The proposed scheme is simple to control capacitor voltages compared to the conventional schems and is cost effective for high voltage and high power application over several tens of MVA. The proposed approach is validated through simulation, and the experimental results are provided from a 2KVA laboratory prototype.

This paper presents a high-efficiency power conditioning system (PCS) for grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) modules. The proposed PCS consists of a step-up DC-DC converter and a single-phase DC-AC inverter for the grid-connected PV modules. A soft-switching step-up DC-DC converter is proposed to generate a high DC-link voltage from the low PV module voltage with a high-efficiency. A DC-link voltage controller is presented for constant DC-link voltage regulation. A half-bridge inverter is used for the single-phase DC-AC inverter for grid connection. A grid current controller is suggested to supply PV electrical power to the power grid with a unity power factor. Experimental results are obtained from a 180 W grid-connected PV module system using the proposed PCS. The proposed PCS achieves a high power efficiency of 93.0 % with an unity power factor for a 60 Hz / 120 Vrms AC power grid.

This paper examines the approach, enabled by using SiC power devices, to unify the inverter design for central air conditioning (CAC) system for both single- and 3-phase input, and reduce the PFC inductor size to be PCB-mountable. By using SiC-instead of Si-diode in PFC stage, it is possible to increase the switching frequency from 16kHz to 60kHz to reduce the required PFC inductance from 0.93mH to 0.25mH, thus enable PCB-mounting of inductor. With the next step of using 1200V SiC MOSFET instead of Si-IGBT, the DC link voltage can be boosted from 311Vdc to 550Vdc in PFC stage, allowing the inverter and compressor used in 3-phase input CAC be used for single-phase input as well. Furthermore, using SiC MOSFET in inverter stage can further reduce total loss system total loss to 200.8 W. Simulation and experimental results are presented in the paper.

본 논문에서는 새로운 이중접속 방식의 60-스텦 인버터를 제안하고 이를 이용한 대용량 STATCOM에 관하여 동작원리 및 제어방식을 기술하기로 한다. 제안한 이중접속 방식의 60-스텦 인버터는 기존의 12-스텦 인버터에 간단한 보조회로를 추가하여 출력전압의 파형을 60-스텦으로 개선하였다. 제안한 방식의 인버터는 커패시터의 전압분할이 필요하지 않아 간접제어 방식의 적용이 용이하며 10Mvar~30Mvar급 이하의 STATCOM에 적용하면 경제적이다. 2KVA급 시작품의 실험 결과로부터 제안한 방식의 타당성을 입증하였다.

In this paper, a novel new pulse power generator based on IGBT stacks is proposed for pulse power application. Because it can generate up to 60kV pulse output voltage without any step- up transformer or pulse forming network, it has advantages of fast rising time, easiness of pulse width variation and rectangular pulse shape. Proposed scheme consists of series connected 9 power stages to generate maximum 60kV output pulse and one series resonant power inverter to charge DC capacitor voltage. Each power stages are configured as 8 series connected power cells and each power cell generates up to 850VDC pulse. Finally pulse output voltage is applied using total 72 series connected IGBTs. To reduce component for gate power supply, a simple and robust gate drive circuit is proposed. For gating signal synchronization, full bridge invertor and pulse transformer generates on-off signals of IGBT gating with gate power simultaneously and it has very good characteristics of short circuit protection.

본 연구는 인버터로 구동되는 유도전동기에서 발생되는 토오크 맥동을 표현하는, 고조파 토오크 함수 HTF(harmonic torque function)를 제안하고, 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 HTF의 타당성을 입증하였다. 제안된 HTF는 고조파 전류의 크기 뿐만 아니라 위상까지 고려하므로서 부하변동에 무관한 고조파 토오크 함수가 되었으며, 이를 six-step. SPWM 및 TPWM의 펄스 폭 제어 인버터에 적용하여 비교하였다. 그 결과 PAWM 인버터에서의 우수한 제어방법이 선택되었다. 한 주기당 펄스수가 9이하에서는 six-step이, 출력전압 크기와 토오크 맥동의 측면에서, SPWM 및 TPWM보다 우수함을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, non-linear state equations for a 3-phase, 220V, 0.4 KW, squirrel cage induction motor have been derived using the d-q transformation and then these equations have been linearized around an operating point by a small perturbation method. Root loci on the s-plane with repect to the changes of slip S and supply frequency f have been studied. Based on the above results, the derived linear state equations have been augmented to the 6th order, including the output velocity feedback and a discrete PI speed controller. Using the new state equations, stability regions on the Kp-Kl plane have been investigated for slip S and sampling time T. In designing a discrete PI controller, the coefficients Kp and Kl around the normal operating point (220V,1,692rpm,60Hz)have been chosen under the assumptions that each response to a perturbation input of reference speed and load torque be underdamped and dominated by a pair of complex poles. Step responses in the experimental system using an Intel SDK-86 and an optimized PWM inverter show satisfactory results that the maximum overshoots and damped frequency are well coincided with ones from the computer simulation.
