Among them, the three input boost filter inductors L3, L4, and L5 are used for boosting and filtering, and reducing harmonic content. The three-phase uncontrolled rectifier bridge composed of six diodes is used to convert the input AC current into DC current. The uncontrollable here means that the diodes in the bridge cannot be actively controlled, but are only turned on according to the positive and negative half cycles of the input voltage. However, by connecting two reverse-series power MOSFETs (bidirectional switch groups) between each phase of the rectifier bridge, the current direction is controlled so that it can flow in both directions, thereby realizing the power factor correction (PFC) function, improving the power factor, and achieving more efficient and stable AC to DC conversion.

[0067] Embodiment 2
[0068] Based on the low harmonic inverter circuit described in the above embodiment 1, the embodiment of the present invention provides a low harmonic inverter circuit control method, see Figure 3 , the method comprises the following steps:
[0069] S1: Obtaining the target output voltage, target output frequency and carrier frequency of the low harmonic inverter circuit;
[0070] S2: Determine the modulation ratio of the low harmonic inverter circuit according to the target output voltage value;
[0071] S3: Determine a carrier period according to the carrier frequency;
[0072] S4: Determine the on and off time according to the target output frequency, the modulation ratio and the carrier period;
[0073] S5: Acquire a PWM control signal according to the on and off time, wherein the PWM control signal is used to control the on and off of the inverter module of the low harmonic inverter circuit.
[0074] Specifically, to use an AC low harmonic inverter circuit to perform frequency conversion control on an AC motor, it is necessary to control the IGBT devices (such as Figure 2 The on and off time of the six IGBTs (I1, I2, I3, I4, I5, I6) in the inverter module 5 shown in the figure makes the output line voltage fundamental wave of the inverter circuit a sine wave, and uses sine voltages of different frequencies and voltages to control the speed of the AC motor. In this embodiment, the PWM drive signal for driving the inverter module to turn on and off is determined by obtaining the target output voltage and carrier frequency of the inverter circuit to realize the turning on and off of each IGBT. The target output voltage, target output frequency and carrier frequency here can be determined according to actual conditions. In one embodiment, it can be determined by Figure 2 The control panel module shown in the figure inputs the corresponding value. After obtaining the target output voltage and carrier frequency, the modulation ratio of the inverter circuit is calculated using the output voltage, the carrier period is calculated using the carrier frequency setting, the on and off time of each IGBT is calculated using the PWM method, and the PWM control signal output to the inverter module is generated by controlling the PWM related control register in the first DSP unit, and each IGBT in the inverter module is turned on or off according to the PWM control signal.
[0075] In one embodiment, the modulation ratio of the low harmonic inverter circuit is determined according to the ratio of the target output voltage value and the DC side voltage; the carrier period is determined according to the inverse of the carrier frequency; the DC side voltage here is the DC voltage output by the rectifier module.
[0076] In one embodiment, determining the on and off time according to the output frequency, the modulation ratio and the carrier period includes:
[0077] generating a reference sine wave and a triangular carrier according to the output frequency, the modulation ratio and the carrier period;
[0078] The reference sine wave and the triangular carrier are compared to determine the turn-on and turn-off time of each IGBT in the inverter module.
[0079] Specifically, the frequency of the reference sine wave determines the frequency of the inverter output voltage, while its amplitude is controlled by the modulation ratio. The reference sine wave is obtained by the following steps: ref Calculate the angular frequency of the reference sine wave ω=2πf ref ; Using modulation ratio m and DC voltage V dc To determine the peak amplitude of the reference sine wave A = m × Vdc / 2; Generate waveform: In each control cycle T, calculate the value of the reference sine wave V(t)=Asin(ωt), where t is the current time.
[0080] The triangular carrier is a high-frequency waveform used for comparison with the reference waveform. The carrier frequency is usually much higher than the frequency of the reference sine wave to ensure that enough PWM switching points are generated to improve the quality of the output waveform. The triangular carrier is obtained by: According to the carrier frequency f carrier Get the carrier period T carrier =1 / f carrier Finally, within each carrier cycle, the value of the carrier is linearly increased until it reaches the maximum value, and then linearly decreased to the minimum value, forming a sawtooth or triangular waveform.
[0081] By comparing the reference sine wave with the triangular carrier, the on and off moments of the PWM signal can be determined. The specific steps include: in each control cycle, comparing the reference sine wave V(t) = Asin(ωt) and the instantaneous value of the carrier. When V(t) is greater than the carrier, a high level is output (IGBT of the inverter module is turned on); when V(t) is less than the carrier, a low level is output (IGBT is turned off). The PWM control signals are obtained based on the high and low level states generated by the comparison. These signals directly drive the IGBT devices in the inverter, thereby accurately controlling the frequency and amplitude of the inverter module output voltage and achieving precise drive control of the motor.
[0082] In one embodiment, when switching in a PWM cycle, in order to prevent the IGBTs of the upper and lower bridge arms from being turned on at the same time and causing a short circuit (i.e., a shoot-through phenomenon), a time interval, i.e., a dead time, is set between the closing of one IGBT and the opening of another IGBT to ensure that the other starts to open only after one IGBT is completely turned off. However, since the introduction of the dead time will affect the output power of the PWM signal, if the dead time is not set properly, it may lead to reduced efficiency or decreased motor performance, so the dead time needs to be adjusted or compensated. The method also includes:
[0083] Determining the dead time of the inverter module;
[0084] Determine the compensation increment corresponding to the dead time according to the total period and modulation ratio of the PWM control signal;
[0085] Acquire a new modulation ratio according to the compensation increment and the modulation ratio;
[0086] The duty cycle of the PWM control signal is set according to the new modulation ratio.
[0087] Specifically, the dead time can be determined based on the turn-on and turn-off characteristics of the IGBT used, for example, by setting the dead time through the switching time and turn-off time in the IGBT data sheet. Furthermore, by setting different dead times under different load conditions, it is ensured that the output waveform and output power of the inverter circuit are observed when no shoot-through occurs to determine the optimal dead time. Through repeated testing, training data such as IGBT-related parameters (such as turn-off time), dead time, load size, output waveform, output power, etc. are obtained, and these data are input into a preset mathematical model for training and learning to obtain the optimal dead time corresponding to different load conditions.
[0088] After the dead time is obtained, the PWM control signal is further compensated and adjusted by determining the compensation increment corresponding to the dead time to ensure the output power. In the embodiment of the present invention, the compensation increment corresponding to the dead time is determined according to the total period and modulation ratio of the PWM control signal. Specifically, the modulation ratio is determined by the target output voltage V ref Divide by the DC voltage V dc The compensation increment is the product of the ratio of the dead time to the total period of the PWM control signal and the modulation ratio. The compensation increment is the part of the modulation ratio lost due to the dead time, and it is added back to the modulation ratio to obtain the new modulation ratio m. final ,
[0089] Then, the duty cycle of the PWM waveform is changed according to the new modulation ratio. For example, the new duty cycle is obtained by adding the original PWM waveform duty cycle to the sum of the product of the new modulation ratio and the preset coefficient. The preset coefficient is a constant and can be determined according to the actual application, and is not limited here. In one embodiment, by Figure 2 The output current processing unit shown obtains the output current of the inverter module and determines whether the output power meets the requirements, and adjusts the output power to meet the application requirements by adjusting the compensation increment and / or the preset coefficient.
[0090] Through the above method, the dead time effect in the inverter system can be effectively managed and compensated, ensuring the efficiency and reliability of the system operation.
