Transformer-based Single-source Multilevel Inverter with Reduction in Number of Transformers
Authors
Abstract:
Single-source binary hybrid multilevel inverters with cascaded transformers have a bulky transformer connected to their main H-bridge cells in each phase. This bulky transformer has been eliminated in this work without any effect on operation and modulation strategies. The proposed topology has significant advantages from view point of dimensions and number of transformers, design of transformers, modeling and application aspects. Modulation strategy of the proposed inverter is the conventional binary hybrid modulation. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate suitable performance of the proposed topology.

Multilevel inverters are a new generation of DC-AC converters at medium and high voltage and power levels. These converters have made great strides in the use of industrial applications compared to conventional two-level inverters due to lower harmonic distortion, filter size, EMI and dv/dt. Besides these merits, some disadvantages can be mentioned such as more power electronics devices and com...
