This book was released on 2022-11-05 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents novel contributions in the development of solid-state-transformer (SST) technology both for medium-voltage (MV) and low-voltage (LV) utility grid interfaces, which can potentially augment the grid modernization process in the evolving power system paradigm. For the MV interface, a single-stage AC-DC SST submodule topology has been proposed, and its modulation and soft-switching possibilities are analysed, experimentally validated and adequately benchmarked. A control scheme with power balance capability among submodules is developed for MV grid-connected single-stage AC-DC SST for smooth operation under inevitable parameter drift scenario, and experimental validation shows excellent performance under drastic load change conditions. A novel machine learning-aided multi-objective design optimization framework for grid-connected SST is developed and experimentally validated, which equips a power electronics design engineer with meagre computational resources to find out the most optimal SST design in a convenient time-frame. This book has also contributed towards the development of dual-active-bridge (DAB)-type and non-DAB-type LV grid-interfaced isolated AC-DC converters by providing solutions to specific topology and modulation-related shortcomings in these two types of topologies. A comprehensive comparison of the DAB and non-DAB-type LVAC-LVDC converters reveals the superiority of DAB-type conversion strategy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the development of renewable energies, such as wind energy and solar energy, the dc power system becomes a promising candidate to manage and transfer the re-newable energy source, which stimulates the study of the dc-dc converters in the past decades. Among various dc-dc converters, the dual-active-bridge (DAB) dc-dc con-verter is regarded as one of the most promising candidates for the dc power conver-sion due to merits like isolated, high-efficiency, bidirectional, and ultrafast dynamic characteristics. Except the DAB dc-dc converter, there are some other isolated dc-dc converters such as full bridge dc-dc converter, three-phase DAB dc-dc converter, etc. They normally have similar dynamic characteristics as the DAB dc-dc converter featuring intermediary inductive ac-link (I2ACL) configuration. However, they are rarely investigated in existing literature, especially for better dynamic control performance. To fill such a gap, the dynamic equivalence between the DAB dc-dc converter and other I2ACL isolated dc-dc converters is revealed with the thorough overview of the existing I2ACL topologies in this work. Further, a unified fast-dynamic direct-current control scheme is proposed for significantly improving the dynamic performance of these I2ACL isolated dc-dc converters. With this predetermined analysis, the dynamic control schemes for the DAB-based dc-dc converter systems can be easily extended to other I2ACL converters with the same configurations. The single DAB dc-dc converter has been extensively investigated, but its modular-ized converter systems such as input-parallel output-parallel (IPOP), input-independent output-parallel (IIOP), in-put-parallel output-series (IPOS), and input-series output-parallel (ISOP) configurations have been seldomly covered in the existing research. Particularly, it is emergent to improve the dynamics, e.g. the input-voltage disturbance, the load-condition change and the power sharing disturbance. In this work, the advanced dynamic controls for these modular DAB dc-dc converter systems are proposed, featuring the flexible power sharing control performances with fast-dynamic responses. Moreover, to realize the reliable operation of these DAB-based systems, the hot swap operations are presented. To ensure the desired power sharing performance, the circuit-parameter estimating methods are proposed for these DAB-based converter systems. This work expands scope of the application of the DAB-based converter system in the partial power processing (PPP). Different from the existing literatures focusing on embedding renewable energy source into the strong ac system, this work proposes a PPP converter system, which can realize the independent control of the renewable energy source and the stabilization of the total dc bus. Combining with DAB module, the DAB-based PPP converter system is proposed. Then, as one of the important functions, the stabilization of the total dc bus should be further improved for this DAB-based converter system. In detail, a high-robustness control strategy is proposed to realize the fast-dynamic control, and the operation when one renewable energy source is out of work is also presented. Notably, the renewable energy should feature the current output and the limited output-voltage regulation such as PV, fuel cell and wind turbine with ac-dc conversion. By using the PV as an example, the effectiveness of the novel system is verified with following results: 1). The maximum power point tracking of the PV panels can be realized by using the existing method. 2). By using the proposed high-robustness control scheme, the total dc-link voltage can maintain at its desired value when the irradiance of PV panels, the voltage of the battery and the load condition are changed, and even when the PV panel is heavily shaded.

Download or read book Voltage Control of a Matrix Converter as the Interface Medium for a Distributed Generation Unit written by Fang Gao and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis proposes and investigates application of a three-phase AC-AC Matrix Converter (MC), as an alternative to the conventional AC-DC-AC converter system, to interface a Micro-Turbine-Generator (MTG) unit as a Distributed Generation (DG) unit to a utility distribution grid. As compared with a conventional AC-DC-AC converter system, lack of storage elements in a MC results in a stronger coupling and interactions between the AC sides of the MC and thus necessitates more stringent control of the MC to prevent/mitigate such effects. This thesis develops a novel dynamic model of the MC to analytically investigate and quantify the interaction phenomenon and design controllers of the MC. This thesis introduces a novel voltage control strategy for the MC to enable operation of a MC-interfaced MTG (MTG-MC) unit in (i) a grid-connected mode, (ii) an autonomous (islanded) mode, and (iii) transition between the two modes. The control strategy also provides an inherent islanding detection method without non-detection zone, and disturbance ride-through capability. The proposed voltage controller is intended for operation of the MTG-MC unit under balanced grid/load conditions. The MC voltage controller is augmented with a negative-sequence current controller to enable the MTG-MC unit also to operate under unbalanced grid/load conditions as a DG unit. The studies reported in this thesis are based on eigen analyses of the overall system linearized dynamic model, in the MATLAB environment, and digital time-domain simulation studies of the system nonlinear model, in the PSCAD/EMTDC environment.

Download or read book Miniaturization of Ac Dc Power Converters for Grid Interface written by Juan Antonio Santiago-González and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis we present a two-stage ac/dc grid-connected converter for computer applications. Also known as off-line power supplies, these converters have to meet various demanding specifications such as a wide input voltage range (typically 0-376 V), large voltage step down (typical output voltages range from 12-48 V), harmonic current limits and galvanic isolation. The focus of this work is in the reduction in volume of ac/dc converters while keeping efficiency constant or improving it, which is challenging to achieve while meeting all the specifications. The thesis breaks down the converter in subsystems and explores architectural and topological trade-offs, modeling, component selection and control methods. The performance of each individual subsystem is experimentally verified. The first stage of the converter is a step-down power factor correction (PFC) converter. This stage interacts with the grid and draws the necessary ac power from the line and rectifies it. Following the PFC is a capacitor bank, which is used to both buffer the ac power from the line and to provide hold-up energy to the output. The capacitor selection process is detailed in the thesis. The second stage of the converter provides isolation and regulation to the output. Two different approaches to the second stage converter are presented: using commercially available, "plug and play" converters and developing a custom converter. The full system is evaluated with both solutions and is compared to other state of the art converters. The final prototype achieves an efficiency of 95.33% at full power (250 W) and 230 Vac input, and a power density of 35 W/in3.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ever-increasing need for higher efficiency, smaller size, and lower cost make the analysis, understanding, and design of energy conversion systems extremely important, interesting, and even imperative. One of the most neglected features in the study of such systems is the effect of the inherent nonlinearities on the stability of the system. Due to these nonlinearities, these devices may exhibit undesirable and complex dynamics, which are the focus of many researchers. Even though a lot of research has taken place in this area during the last 20 years, it is still an active research topic for mainstream power engineers. This research has demonstrated that these systems can become unstable with a direct result in increased losses, extra subharmonics, and even uncontrollability/unobservability. The detailed study of these systems can help in the design of smaller, lighter, and less expensive converters that are particularly important in emerging areas of research like electric vehicles, smart grids, renewable energy sources, and others. The aim of this Special Issue is to cover control and nonlinear aspects of instabilities in different energy conversion systems: theoretical, analysis modelling, and practical solutions for such emerging applications. In this Special Issue, we present novel research works in different areas of the control and nonlinear dynamics of energy conversion systems.
