Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power electronic conversion, and in particular to a three-phase single-stage bidirectional AC / DC multi-level converter topology and a control method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the construction of new power systems, distributed power sources dominated by renewable energy are exhibiting significant DC characteristics. Photovoltaic power generation units and battery energy storage systems are essentially DC sources and require an inverter before they can be connected to the AC grid. While rotating units such as wind turbines and diesel generators directly generate AC power, their output frequency differs from that of the grid and still requires two-stage AC-DC-AC power conversion for grid connection. When connecting to such distributed power sources, existing AC grid architectures generally suffer from prominent issues such as numerous power conversion stages, low system efficiency, and high investment in power electronics equipment. Especially in scenarios where multiple energy sources operate in tandem, energy losses caused by multiple AC-DC conversions can reach over 35% of the total system loss.
[0003] To address these technical bottlenecks, the AC / DC hybrid microgrid architecture offers unique advantages. By operating the AC and DC buses in tandem, this architecture reduces the repeated AC / DC and DC / AC conversion steps. Theoretical calculations indicate that overall system efficiency can be improved by 8-12 percentage points. The key to achieving efficient energy exchange between the AC and DC subgrids lies in the development of a three-phase AC / DC bidirectional converter with high reliability and modular scalability. Existing research focuses on three core areas: the application of soft-switching technology, high-frequency magnetic coupling isolation schemes, and the construction of single-stage power topologies. Resonant soft-switching technology can reduce switching losses by 40%-60%. High-frequency isolation devices such as planar transformers can increase power density to 3-5 times that of traditional power-frequency transformers. Single-stage topologies significantly reduce equipment size and cost by eliminating intermediate energy storage. The current technical challenge lies in achieving zero-voltage switching characteristics, smooth bidirectional power flow, and fast dynamic response in the three-phase system under high-frequency operating conditions. This places high demands on optimized magnetic component design and multi-modal control strategies. Summary of the Invention

[0041] The above analysis demonstrates that the proposed three-phase, single-stage, bidirectional, AC / DC, multilevel converter topology achieves zero-voltage turn-on operation for all switches, significantly reducing switching losses and enabling high-frequency operation. This reduces size and increases power density, while ensuring high efficiency. Power transmission between each port is single-stage, resulting in high efficiency. Under the proposed control method, the proposed three-phase, single-stage, bidirectional, AC / DC, multilevel converter topology enables flexible control of power flow at each port.
[0042] In summary, the present invention provides a three-phase single-stage bidirectional AC / DC multilevel converter topology and a control method thereof. The voltage stress borne by all primary-side switching tubes of the three-phase single-stage bidirectional AC / DC multilevel converter topology is half of the bus voltage, which reduces the voltage stress requirement of the switching tubes, reduces the cost and loss of the switching tubes; all switching devices can achieve zero-voltage switching within a wide range, greatly improving the efficiency of the converter; while realizing a multi-level structure, the number of switching tubes in the power path of the converter in a single mode is greatly reduced, effectively reducing the complexity of the control method, and reducing the source of loss, providing the potential for further reducing losses.
