Modulator for 4-level Flying Capacitor Converter with Balancing Control in the Closed Loop
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a modulator with an active voltage balancing control for the three-phase fourlevel FLC converter based electric motor drive for applications supplied directly from a 6 kV ac-grid. It describes a modulation algorithm of the FLC converter by using the phase shifted PWM modulation with balancing voltage of the flying capacitor by using P controllers in the closed loop. The proposed control was verified by experiments carried out on the down-scale drive prototype of the rated power of 35 kVA.

متن کاملHarmonic Reduction Technique Using Flying Capacitor Based Z Source Inverter for a DVR
The Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is a commercially available, popular device to eliminate voltage sags and swells in the distribution lines. Its basic function is to inject the voltage difference (difference between the pre-sag and sag voltage) to the power line and maintains the pre-sag voltage condition in the load side. The efficiency of the DVR depends on the performance of the efficiency...

This dissertation presents voltage stabilization techniques for flying capacitors used in soft-switching multilevel active power filters. The proposed active filter has proved to be a solution for power system harmonics produced by static high power converters. However, voltage unbalance of the clamping capacitors in the active filter in practical applications was observed due to its unequal pa...
