Design of the new multilevel current source converter to grid connected applications
Authors
Abstract:
A novel current source multilevel inverter is introduced in this paper which is an appropriate alternative to be employed for low/medium power applications. the proposed converter is formed basic modules which paralleling these modules increse output current levels and improve quality of injected current to load or grid. in order to validate advantages of proposed converter versus the several multilevel current source inverters, a full comparison is provided. the simulation results shows the good performance of the proposed converter in off grid and grid-connected applications. Also experimental results for single-phase load confirm the practicablity of the proposed converter.
