본 논문에서는 유도전동기를 순시 토크제어하기 위한 방법으로 간접벡터제어를 사용하였고, 간접벡터제어를 통해 계산된 전압추종벡터를 NPC형 3-레벨 인버터의 SVPWM기법을 적용하여 구현하였다. SVPWM방식은 기존의 2레벨 인버터의 알고리즘을 응용하여 선형영역에서 과변조영역까지 선형적으로 전이 하도록 하였다.

This paper investigates characteristics of high power semiconductor device losses in 5MW-class Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) Medium Voltage (MV) wind turbines. High power semiconductor device of press-pack type IGCT of 6.5kV is considered in this paper. Analysis is performed based on neutral point clamped (NPC) 3-level back-to-back type voltage source converter (VSC) supplied from grid voltage of 4160V. This paper describes total loss distribution at worst case under inverter and rectifier operating mode for the power semiconductor switches. The loss analysis is confirmed through PLECS simulations. In addition, the loss factors due to di/dt snubber and ac input filter are presented. The investigation result shows that IGCT type semiconductor devices generate the total efficiency of 97.74% under the rated condition.

본 논문은 3상 NPC형 3-레벨 인버터를 영시퀀스 주입에 의한 SVPWM방식에 고조파의 특성이 가장 우수하다고 알려진PD(phase disposition)방식의 멀티 캐리어 방식을 적용하였다. 구현된 NPC형 3-레벨 인버터는 전 영역에서 동작할 수 있도록 구현하여, 각 영역에 따른 고조파 및 THD를 분석하였다. 일반적은로 NPC형 3-레벨 인버터는 2-레벨 인버터에 비해 동일 변조비에서 고조파의 특성이 우수 한 것으로 알려졌다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 변조비에 따른 고조파의 분포 이중 푸리에 시리즈를 통해 분석하였고, 이를 시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증하였다.

This paper proposes a seamless MPPT operation mode transfer method of photovoltaic system. The photovoltaic system consists of a DC-DC boost converter, a DC-Link, and a 3-level neutral point clamp (NPC) type inverter. The PV voltage fluctuates due to the output characteristics of the solar pane1 depending on the irradiation amount and the temperature. The photovoltaic system requires seamless MPPT mode transfer method that the discontinuity does not occur in order to supply the stable power to system without affecting the fluctuation of the PV voltage. MPPT operation is divided into two modes by the voltage reference. Under the condition that the PV voltage is below 650V, the DC-DC boost converter performs MPPT through duty control based on perturb & observe (P&O) method, and the inverter conducts DC-link voltage and grid current controls in synchronous reference frame. On the other hand, when the PV voltage exceeds above 650V, inverter performs MPPT in accordance with the variation of DC-link voltage control while the converter stops operating. Two MPPT operation modes is smoothly transferred through the proposed method that DC-link voltage or grid current commands are appropriately adjusted from the certain criteria. The feasibility of the MPPT operation mode transfer method is verified using a 10kW solar photovoltaic system, experimental results have good performances that the fluctuation of PV current is reduced to 100%.
