Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a harmonic suppression method, in particular to a three-level half-wave symmetrical SHEPWM with midpoint potential low-frequency pulsation suppression capability. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous growth of medium voltage and high power power application scenarios, low switching frequency modulation technology is widely used due to its low switching loss. Among them, specific subharmonic elimination pulse width modulation technology (SHEPWM) is one of the many low switching frequency modulation technologies. It is highly favored because it can reduce the switching frequency, improve system efficiency and ensure good output performance of the converter.

[0003] For the low-frequency pulsation problem of the midpoint potential of the three-level converter under the specific harmonic elimination pulse width modulation technology (SHEPWM) under the traditional quarter-cycle symmetry, the current technical strategy is mainly to use different values ​​of the 3rd and 9th harmonic amplitudes to reduce the low-frequency pulsation. After the switching angle is calculated, this technical strategy can automatically suppress the low-frequency pulsation of the midpoint potential without any closed-loop control. However, the method is only effective in suppressing the low-frequency pulsation of the midpoint potential when the power factor is high. When the power factor is low, the suppression of low-frequency pulsation (i.e., low-frequency harmonics) is poor. For example, when the power factor is 0.5, the suppression rate of the low-frequency pulsation of the midpoint potential is only 80%; on the one hand, this will seriously affect the output current harmonic distribution of the inverter, and on the other hand, it will also limit the use scenario of SHEPWM.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, a new technical means is proposed to solve them. Summary of the invention
