Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of inverter technology, and more specifically to a two-stage three-phase inverter with a wide output voltage range applicable to photovoltaic systems. Background Technology

[0002] The photovoltaic industry and new energy power generation sector are developing rapidly, and the market demand for high-efficiency and reliable inverters is increasing daily. Distribution networks also have stringent requirements for the power quality of connected distributed power sources. An inverter is a device that converts direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) based on various power electronic components, primarily switching devices. Common single-phase inverters include single-phase half-bridge inverters, single-phase full-bridge inverters, and multi-level inverters. For photovoltaic (PV) system inverters, the output voltage of PV panels often fluctuates significantly due to factors such as uneven sunlight, temperature fluctuations, and dust obstruction. Therefore, to achieve stable operation under various conditions, the inverter should have a wide input voltage range to adapt to the operation of PV panels under different conditions, while ensuring a stable and clean output voltage to avoid damage to the load due to voltage quality issues. Traditional bridge inverters have advantages such as simple structure, simple switching control strategy, and stable operation under a single DC input. However, when faced with highly fluctuating DC inputs (such as those from photovoltaic and wind power, which are easily affected by environmental factors), it is difficult to guarantee the stability and smoothness of the output voltage waveform. To ensure the stability of the output voltage, the photovoltaic panels usually need to operate under ideal conditions, which makes it difficult to improve energy utilization and power conversion efficiency. To optimize the output voltage waveform, the filter capacitors and inductors in the circuit must be increased, which will greatly increase the size, cost, and losses of the inverter.

[0028] Next, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 The inverter's front-end uses a phase-shifted full-bridge ZVS DC-DC converter module to transform the output voltage of the photovoltaic panels. (Reference) Figure 6 and Figure 7During the time interval t0-t1, switches S1 and S4 are turned on. At time t1, S1 is turned off, and capacitors C1 and C2 are directly connected in parallel across the power supply. Since the voltage across capacitor C2 is positive at the top and negative at the bottom, diode D2 is clamped and cannot conduct. The current flowing through the resonant inductor Lm charges capacitor C1 and discharges capacitor C2, creating the prerequisite for the turn-on of switch S2. At time t2, capacitor C2 is discharged until its voltage reaches 0, at which point diode D2 is ready to conduct, and the current flowing through the resonant inductor Lm... The transformer's primary winding, switch S4, and diode D2 connected in parallel with switch S2 are connected. During the time interval t2-t3, since diode D2 is already conducting, turning on S2 at this time allows for zero-voltage conduction, reducing switching losses. At time t3, switch S4 is turned off. During the time interval t3-t4, capacitors C3 and C4 are connected in parallel across the power supply. Because the voltage across capacitor C3 is positive at the top and negative at the bottom, diode D3 is clamped and cannot conduct. The current flowing through the resonant inductor Lm affects the voltage across the transformer. Capacitor C3 discharges, charging capacitor C4, creating the prerequisite for the turn-on of switch S3; at time t4, capacitor C3 is discharged to a voltage of 0, at which point diode D3 is ready to conduct, and the current of resonant inductor Lm flows through diode D3 (connected in parallel with switch S3), the primary winding of the transformer, and switch S2; during the time interval t4-t5, since diode D3 (connected in parallel with switch S3) is already conducting, turning on S3 at this time can achieve zero-voltage conduction, reducing switching losses; t3-t During time interval t5, the direction of the current flowing through the primary winding of the transformer changes. Since the inductor current cannot change abruptly, the secondary winding is effectively in a short-circuit state, and the converter output DC voltage is 0 during this time interval. After commutation during the above time intervals, during time intervals t5-t6, the direction of the current flowing through the secondary winding of the transformer changes, but after rectification, the converter still outputs DC voltage. At time t6, switch S2 is turned off, and under the action of capacitors C1 and C2, conditions are created for the zero-voltage turn-on of switch S1. The above describes the six operating modes of the phase-shifted full-bridge ZVS DC-DC converter module within one cycle. (Reference) Figure 7 By controlling the switching transistor S 1,2 and switching transistor S 4,3 By opening the phase difference, the output voltage can be controlled to suppress voltage fluctuations in the photovoltaic panel output voltage caused by uneven illumination, temperature fluctuations, and dust obstruction, thereby achieving maximum power point tracking of the photovoltaic panel and providing a more stable input voltage for the downstream inverter module.

[0029] After the aforementioned DC-DC conversion process, the front-stage DC-DC converter module outputs a stable DC voltage, which serves as the input voltage for the subsequent inverter module. The Buck-Boost full-bridge inverter module structure used in this invention differs from traditional bridge inverters in that it adds two switching transistors, Taa and Tab, along with their corresponding freewheeling diodes to facilitate control of the output voltage. Figure 3 The conduction state of each switch and the current flow in the circuit are given when the output voltage of the Buck-Boost full-bridge inverter module is in the negative half-cycle. Figure 3 In the first stage of the inverter module's output voltage negative half-cycle, when switching transistors Ta2 and Tab are turned on, the freewheeling diode Daa is reverse biased, and the power supply charges inductor L1. The current in inductor L1 increases linearly, and the load is powered by capacitor C1. The current flow path at this time is shown in the figure. Since no current flows through switching transistor Tab when it is turned on, the conduction of Tab can be regarded as zero-voltage conduction, reducing switching losses. In the second stage of the inverter module's output voltage negative half-cycle, switching transistor Ta2 is turned off. Since the current in the inductor cannot change abruptly, the freewheeling diode Daa is forward biased, providing a conduction path for the current in the inductor. At this time, the current in inductor L1 decreases linearly, and the inductor current flows through the capacitor and the load, supplying power to them. During the third stage of the negative half-cycle of the inverter module's output voltage, switch Taa is turned on, and inductor L1 continues to supply power to the capacitor and load. Since the load current flows through the diode connected in parallel with switch Taa before it turns on, the conduction of Taa can be considered zero-voltage conduction, reducing switching losses. By changing the on / off state of switch Ta2 and controlling the charging and discharging time of inductor L1 within one operating cycle—that is, controlling the duty cycle—the output voltage can be controlled. When the Buck-Boost three-phase inverter module's output voltage is in the positive half-cycle, switch Ta2 remains off, and switches Ta1 and Ta4 are closed, charging inductor L1. In this switching state, the inverter module's output voltage is positive. By changing the positive and negative half-cycles of the output voltage, the inversion function is achieved. When the inverter module's output voltage is positive, the current flow in the circuit is as follows: Figure 4 As shown. For the B-phase inverter module, the conduction angle of its switching transistor lags behind that of the A-phase module by 120 degrees, and for the C-phase inverter module, the conduction angle lags behind that of the A-phase module by 240 degrees. Thus, the Buck-Boost three-phase inverter module converts the output DC power into three symmetrical AC power phases, each phase differing by 120 degrees. By adjusting the duty cycle, in conjunction with the preceding DC-DC module, step-up and step-down voltage functions can be achieved to adapt to different voltage requirements at the load end.

Various modifications and alterations can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be defined by the claims.
