Submodule Temperature Regulation and Balancing in Modular Multilevel Converters
In modular multilevel converters (MMCs), tem5 perature control of semiconductor devices in the submod6 ules (SMs) is a key factor for the safe and reliable opera7 tion. Under normal operation, significant temperature differ8 ences can exist between SMs due to, for example, aging of 9 semiconductor modules and module parameter mismatch. 10 This paper presents a method for achieving SM thermal ba...
متن کاملCapacitor Voltage Monitoring in Modular Multilevel Converter
A Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) is an attractive solution for power conversion without transformers. As MMC consists of cascade connections and floating dc capacitors, it requires continuous voltage monitoring. An adaptive observer design has been presented to estimate the capacitor voltages from the measurement of arm currents. This work introduces a capacitance value of the cell capacito...
متن کاملNovel Control Strategy for Modular Multilevel Converters Based on Differential Flatness Theory
This paper aims to present a novel control strategy for Modular Multilevel Converters (MMC) based on differential flatness theory (DFT), in which instantaneous active and reactive power values are considered as the flat outputs. To this purpose, a mathematical model of the MMC taking into account dynamics of the ac-side current and the dc-side voltage of the converter is derived in a d-q refere...

متن کاملSimplified model and submodule capacitor voltage balancing of single-phase AC/AC modular multilevel converter for railway traction purpose
A single-phase AC/AC modular multilevel converter (MMC) can interact directly with 25 kV railway grid without a bulky 50 Hz step-down transformer. This brings in great savings in size and cost. Submodule (SM) voltage balancing of this kind of MMCs remains a major technique issue. This study proposes a voltage-balancing solution for this scenario which consists of intraand inter-arm voltage bala...
