A New Approach for Reactive Power Control of Single Phase Transformerless Inverter to Modify Power Quality in Stand Alone Micro-Grids with Current Leakage Elimination
Authors
Abstract:
Nowadays there has been an increasing interest in transformerless inverter for grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system due to low cost, high efficiency and light weight. One of the reasons describe the grid behavior is capability of reactive power control by inverter. According to the standard VDE-AR-N 4105, grid-tied PV inverter of power rating below 3.68KVA, should attain power factor (PF) from 0.95 leading to 0.95 lagging. Thus this paper present a new topology with ability to eliminate common mode leakage current and do power factor correction. The generation and extinction of this current is analyzed. It’s nice to say that non of open loop structure presented so far, can control the reactive power individualy without any controller. So here a new approach based on proportional – resonant controller with fast response is expressed. Simulations done with active load and RL load show the excellent performance of proposed algorithm. Then proposed inverter with 98 % efficiency is compared with H5, H6 and HERIC inverters.

Abstract: When several parallel inverters are in islands operating mode, the droop control scheme is usually used to control the inverters. The droop control method enables the inverters of a Micro-Grid to control the voltage and frequency of the network in a decentralized regulation behavior. The drop control method also enables the inverters to share the required active and reactive powers of...
full textA New Pulsating Power Elimination Method for Single-Phase PWM AC/DC Converters with Minimum Voltage and Current Stress
An inherent problem of single-phase rectifiers is the existence of a pulsating portion in the input power, which pulsates at twice the grid frequency. If this pulsating power is transferred to the DC-link, it causes a significant amount of second-order harmonic at the output voltage. Since in many applications, such a high level of DC oscillation is not acceptable, so the pulsating power must b...
