The invention relates to the field of power electronic converter control, and discloses a high-power active variable
inductor for a speed-adjustable driver and a control method thereof.The high-power active variable
inductor comprises a positive
inductor and a negative inductor, the positive inductor is a traditional physical inductor, and the negative inductor is obtained through equivalence of a single-phase
inverter; by connecting the positive inductor and the negative inductor in parallel, the overall equivalent
inductance value is increased, and meanwhile, a wider-range adjusting space is provided, so that a better filtering effect is achieved, the equivalent
inductance value can be adjusted in a wide range, the
power density is high, implementation is easy, three-
phase imbalance can be dealt with, the
electric energy quality of a speed-adjustable driver is improved, and the service life of a direct-current side filtering
capacitor is prolonged; the problems that a direct-current side passive filter of an existing speed-adjustable driver is heavy, the
inductance size of an active
capacitor is difficult to reduce, and the adjusting range of an existing active inductor is narrow are effectively solved.
