Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrical engineering, and in particular to a full-bridge inverter output ripple cancellation network. Background Technology

[0002] Full-bridge inverters have a wide range of applications. Their core principle is to generate an AC voltage waveform at the output by controlling the on / off state of switching devices. The high-frequency switching of these devices introduces high-order harmonics into the output waveform. These harmonics can degrade equipment performance, causing overheating, resonance, and in severe cases, even damage the equipment. Furthermore, applications such as power supplies for precision electronic equipment and radar systems place even higher demands on the low-distortion harmonic output of full-bridge inverters. Therefore, eliminating high-order harmonics and ensuring low-distortion harmonic output is an important research topic for full-bridge inverters.

[0003] To suppress higher harmonics, a common method is to use LC filters with low cutoff frequencies (such as...). Figure 1 (As shown) Alternatively, the switching frequency can be increased. Filters with low cutoff frequencies can effectively reduce the amplitude of output ripple, thereby reducing the content of higher harmonics. However, this increases the size of the converter, reduces power density, and since the frequency of output higher-order ripple is mainly concentrated at the switching frequency, traditional filters struggle to filter out this sub-ripple. Increasing the switching frequency increases switching losses, exacerbates device heating, increases heat dissipation pressure, and enhances high-frequency noise radiation from the device. It also challenges the high-frequency characteristics of inductors and capacitors. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention discloses a full-bridge inverter output ripple cancellation network. Compared to traditional filters employing low cutoff frequencies, this network offers significant advantages in power density and ripple cancellation effectiveness. Compared to methods that increase the switching frequency to reduce output ripple amplitude, it offers significant advantages in terms of device losses and EMI characteristics.

Port p 1 includes the first upper port p 11 and the first port p 12 ,port p 2 includes the second upper port p 21 Second lower port p 22 The coupling winding L 1 and L 2 represents two fully coupled windings with a coupling coefficient of 1. L 3 and ripple capacitor C 1.

From Figure 5 It can be seen that when the output capacitor C A larger capacitance value (1mF) results in better high-frequency attenuation characteristics, but it also introduces an additional resonant peak near the switching frequency. This effect varies with the output capacitance. C As the capacitance value gradually decreases (1mF→0.1mF→0.01mF), the frequency at the resonant peak gradually increases and moves further away from the notch filter frequency. Considering the system's size, stability, and high-frequency attenuation characteristics, the output capacitor can be... C 2. Ripple capacitors with a capacitance value less than 10 times the rated value C A tolerance value of 1.

[0026] To achieve precise control of the self-inductance and mutual inductance of coupled inductors in a ripple cancellation network, this invention proposes an optimized design method for cross-winding of windings based on a dual magnetic ring. The winding method is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, two identical magnetic rings A and B are stacked, and the windings... L 1. L 2 and L 3. Three strands are wound together on two stacked magnetic rings to form a winding. Turns, then winding L 1 and L 2. Two additional strands are wound in parallel on magnetic ring A. Turns, windings L 3. Additional winding on magnetic ring B Since there is a gap between the two stacked magnetic rings, the magnetic circuits of the two magnetic rings can be considered to be independent of each other, that is, the magnetic flux is mainly distributed in their respective magnetic rings.

[0027] For windings L For example, the number of turns of magnetic ring A is ( ). The number of turns on magnetic ring B is For the winding L For example, the number of turns of magnetic ring A is ( ). The number of turns on magnetic ring B is For the winding L For 3, the number of turns on magnetic ring A is The number of turns on magnetic ring B is .

[0028] The magnetic reluctance of magnetic ring A and magnetic ring B is (Magnetic reluctance of a single magnetic ring), the total magnetic reluctance after stacking is Assuming the current flows through the winding L 1. L 2 and L The currents of 3 are respectively I 1. I2 and I 3. Then the magnetomotive forces on magnetic ring A and magnetic ring B can be obtained respectively as follows: (10) According to equation (10), the magnetic flux on magnetic ring A and magnetic ring B can be obtained as follows: (11) L 1's self-perception is when I 2= I When 3=0, L 1 magnetic flux and I The ratio of 1, L The flux linkage of 1 is: (12) but L 1's self-perception for: (13) Due to inductance coefficient ,therefore L The intuition of 1 can be expressed as: (14) Similarly, we can obtain L 2 and L 3 self-perception , for: (15) Due to the winding L 1 and L 2. Always wound in pairs around the same magnetic ring. L 1 and L The self-inductance of 2 is equal to its mutual inductance, that is: (16) winding L 1 relative to the winding L Mutual inductance of 3 When I 2= I When 3=0, I 1 in L Magnetic linkage in 3 and I The ratio of 1, I 1 in L The magnetic flux linkage in 3 is: (17) Then the winding L 1 relative to the winding L Mutual inductance of 3 for: (18) Due to the winding L 1 and winding L 2. Always two strands wound in parallel, winding L 2 Relative to winding L Mutual inductance of 3 .

[0029] Based on equations (14), (15), and (18), the winding can be obtained. L 1 and L 2 Relative to winding L The expression for the mutual inductance coefficient of 3 is as follows: (19) Winding L 1 and winding L The self-inductance of 2 is winding L The self-inductance of 3 is According to equations (14), (15) and (18), equation (19) can be transformed into: (20) Number of turns and It can be represented as: (twenty one) According to equations (20) and (21), it can be seen that, given the self-inductance... and Below, the number of turns can be changed. To achieve mutual inductance coefficient Adjustment, and simultaneously adjust the number of turns. and To ensure self-sensitivity and constant.

[0030] In this embodiment, given , , The mutual inductance coefficient can be obtained. , and Follow The changing curve is as follows Figure 7 As shown. From Figure 7 It can be seen from this that the mutual inductance coefficient along with The number of turns increases with the increase of [something]. and along with The number of turns decreases as the number of turns increases. Furthermore, the number of turns calculated according to equation (21) and The number of turns in a winding cannot be non-integer; therefore, the calculated number of turns must be considered. The value is rounded down.

[0031] when When the number of turns changes, it is based on the rounded-down number of turns. and The calculated winding self-inductance and mutual inductance coefficients are as follows: Figure 8 As shown, from Figure 8 It can be seen that the number of turns after rounding and The effect on the winding self-inductance and mutual inductance coefficients is negligible.

They can be applied to various fields suitable for the present invention. Other modifications can be easily made by those skilled in the art. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and their equivalents, the present invention is not limited to the specific details and shown herein.
