Abstract

Resonant power supplies have the advantage over traditional pulse width modulation (PWM) converters due to their soft switching capabilities. In addition, the output current ripple can be reduced by using three phase interleaving structure. However, this structure also suffers from some disadvantages, such as resonant current imbalance. Most previous solutions have been focused on hardware as adding extra power switches, increasing the cost and volume of the converter. There are not many software solutions due to the difficulty in modeling unbalance three-phase. This paper will propose a smoothly resonant current balancing solution for the three-phase interleaved LLC structure which is based on controlling directly resonant current phase angles (CPAB). This proposed method shows better current balance and response than the old trigonometric current balancing (TCB) method. The proposed technique is also verified by a 48 V 3.6 kW prototype converter and its experimental results.

Abstract

This paper proposes a D-STATCOM structure based on a modular multilevel converter (MMC) with the use of FCS-MPC control method for the purpose of compensating reactive power and stabilizing voltage in the distribution grid. The D-STATCOM is effectively used in cases involving non-sinusoidal and unstable voltages, which often occur in the distribution grid due to the effects of unbalanced nonlinear loads and power injection from renewable energy systems. The proposed structure also has the capability of reactive power compensating flexibility in fault conditions to stabilize the grid voltage. In this paper, a new control strategy, which is based on the combination of an outer PI controller and an inner FCS-MPC controller, was introduced. The outer PI controller is used to reduce static deviations in control values and to provide a reference value for the FCS-MPC controller. The inner FCS-MPC controller calculates the optimal switching state for the purpose of reducing the switching frequency of the MMC. The implementation process begins with the construction of a mathematical model and a control model. Simulations were carried out by MATLAB/Simulink to demonstrate the responsiveness of the control algorithm and the performance of D-STATCOM under the conditions of non-sinusoidal and unstable voltages.
