Abstract

The invention provides a 2N+2 switch group MMC AC-AC converter and a control method thereof. The converter includes N inputs / outputs, a first bridge arm, a second bridge arm and a first capacitor; the input of each input / output is an AC input, and the load of each input / output is an inductive load; the first bridge Both the arm and the second bridge arm are composed of N+1 switch groups and 2 inductors in series; each switch group is composed of n power switch units in series; the sum of the AC input and the load is N; the two loads Terminal as output; N>2, n is a positive integer. The converter adopts carrier phase-shift PWM control, and each input AC power is converted into 2n+1 level AC input, which is converted into 2n+1 level AC input by AC-AC to supply power to the inductive load, and the MMC power switch unit The voltage stress of each switching tube is only 1 / n of the DC power supply voltage, which is suitable for high-voltage and high-power applications.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of modular combination multilevel converters (MMC), in particular to a 2N+2 switch group MMC AC-AC converter and a control method thereof. Background technique

[0002] At present, power converters are developing in the direction of miniaturization, high reliability and low loss. Under this trend, there are two directions for improving the converter: reducing passive components or improving the topology of the converter to reduce active components. New progress in the direction of source devices. Compared with the traditional 4N switch AC-AC converter, the single-phase 2N+2 switch AC-AC converter reduces 2N-2 switches and corresponding drive circuits, and has certain advantages in applications considering cost and volume. However, the N single-phase inputs or outputs of the 2N+2 switch AC-AC converter are all three-level, and the input and output AC waveforms are relatively poor. In addition, the voltage stress of e...
