A novel 3$\phi$ ZVS PWM VSI topology employing a simple dc bus subcircuit that provides soft switching commutations is proposed in this paper. The main advantage of the proposed inverter commutation schem is that the dc bus subcircuit is activated only when required, that is, when dictated by the respective PWM. Detailed analysis is provided and simmulation results are presented to verify the principles of operation of the proposed inverter schem.

PWM-VSI based ac-drives have high nonlinearity due to dead-time in the inverter and the voltage drop across the switching devices. In this paper, we introduced a new nonlinear model of PWM-VSl including parastic capacitor and also showed validity of the model by circuit simulations and experiments. Furthermore, we proposed an on-line identification algorithm for the uncertain model parameters.

Multilevel inverters have gained attention in high-power applications due to their numerous advantages in comparison with conventional two-level inverters. In this paper a simplified Space-Vector Modulation (SVM) algorithm for a three-level Neutral-Point Clamped (NPC) inverter is implemented on a Freescale$^{(R)}$ DSP56F8037. The algorithm is based on a simplification of the space-vector diagram for a three-level inverter so that it can be used with a two-level inverter. Once the simplification has been achieved, calculation of the dwell times and the switching sequences are carried out in the same way as for the two-level SVM method. Details of the hardware design are included. Experimental results are analyzed to validate the performance of the simplified algorithm.

Recently Advanced Static Var Compensators(ASVC) or STATic Synchronous COMpesator(STATCOM) has been considered as a next generation reactive power controller. The STATCOM is a voltage source inverter(VSI) based on the static VAr compensator with only small capacitors on the dc side. The main function of the STATCOM is to keep the bus voltage magnitude at the desired value. This paper compared the PAM STATCOM with the PWM STATCOM. The characteristics and the control method of each model is analyzed. And the simulation of STATCOMs based on the above two methods is presented.

An error-compensated pulse width modulator (ECPWM) is proposed to improve the baseband harmonic performance and the switching loss of voltage source inverters (VSIs). Selecting between harmonic distortion and switching loss is a design tradeoff in the conventional space vector pulse width modulation. In this work, an accumulated difference in produced and desired phase voltages is considered to adjust the reference signal. This mechanism can compensate for the voltage error in the previous carrier period. With error compensation every half-carrier period, the proposed ECPWM allows one-half reduction in carrier frequency without scarifying baseband harmonic distortion. The proposed modulator is applied to a three-phase VSI with R-L load and a motor-speed-control system for experiments. The measured efficiency and operating temperature of switches confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

This paper propose a new active common-mode voltage damper circuit that is capable of suppressing a common-mode voltage produced in the PWM VSI. The new active common mode voltage damper is consisted of a half-bridge inverter and a common mode transformer with a blocking capacitor. Principle of the active common mode damper is as follow; by applying the compensation voltage which has the same amplitude and opposite polarity to the PWM inverter system. So, common mode voltage and high frequency leakage current can be reduced. Simulated and experimental results show that common-mode voltage damper makes contributions to reducing a high frequency leakage current and common-mode voltage.

In this paper, a fault diagnosis method based on fuzzy logic for the three-parallel power converter in a wind turbine system is presented. The method can not only detect both open and short faults but can also identify faulty switching devices without additional voltage sensors or an analysis modeling of the system. The location of a faulty switch can be indicated by six-patterns of a stator current vector and the fault switching device detection is achieved by analyzing the current vector. A fault tolerant algorithm is also presented to maintain proper performance under faulty conditions. The reliability of the proposed fault detection technique has been proven by simulations and experiments with a 10kW simulator.

마이크로소스는 1[kW]${\sim}$수[MW] 사이의 전력을 공급하고, 기존의 대규모 발전설비보다 높은 신뢰도와 에너지 효율을 가지는 고품질의 전력을 공급할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 마이크로소스의 스위칭레벨 모델을 개발하였으며, 다수의 마이크로소스가 전력시스템과 연계되어 마이크로그리드를 형성할 경우의 특성에 대하여 연구하였다. 마이크로소스는 인버터의 효율을 극대화 할 수 있도록 공간벡터 펄스폭변조(Space Vector PWM, SVPWM) 기법을 채용하였으며, 마이크로소스의 제어시스템 파라미터 특성 및 마이크로소스 상호작용에 관하여 연구하였다. 마이크로소스는 PSCAD/EMTDC를 이용하여 구현하였으며 이를 이용해 마이크로그리드를 구성하여 시뮬레이션하였다. 사례 연구를 통하여 제안된 모델의 효용성을 확인하였다.

The paper addresses modeling and analysis of a grid-connected photovoltaic generation system (PV system). PSCAD/EMTDC, an industry standard simulation tool for studying the transient behavior of electric power system and apparatus, is used to conduct all aspects of model implementation and to carry out extensive simulation study. This paper is aimed at sharing with the PSCAD/EMTDC user community our user-defined model for PV system applications, which is not yet available as a standard model within PSCAD/EMTDC. An equivalent circuit model of a solar cell has been used for modeling solar array. A series of parameters required for array modeling have been estimated from general specification data of a solar module. A PWM voltage source inverter (VSI) and its current control scheme have been implemented. A maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique is employed for drawing the maximum available energy from the PV array. Comprehensive simulation results are presented to examine PV array behaviors and PV system control performance in response to irradiation changes. In addition, dynamic responses of PV array and system to network fault conditions are simulated and analysed.

본 논문에서는 캐리어(Carrier)를 이용한 매트릭스 컨버터(Matrix Converter)의 전압 변조 방법을 제안한다. 출력상전압에 적절한 옵셋(Offset) 전압을 더하고, 캐리어 파형의 기울기를 적절히 제어함으로써 입력 전류를 역율 1의 정현파로 제어하면서 동시에 출력 전압의 합성이 가능하다. 이 방법은 기존의 매트릭스 컨버터 전압 변조 방법인 SVPWM과 동일한 스위칭 패턴을 나타내지만, 그 구현은 훨씬 간단한다. 또한 기존의 전압형 인버터(Voltage Source Inverter, VSI)에서 발전된 2상/3상 변조, 과변조(Over Modulation) 등의 개념을 유사하게 적용할 수 있어 그 활용도가 매우 논다. Matlab/Simulink를 이용한 시뮬레이션 결과와 실험을 통해 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다.
