Chapter 3Power Electronic Technology,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Text,New Words and Expressions,Exercises,End,Transition of part of speech,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Introduction DC-AC converters are conventionally called the inverters. Such converters are very popular in the battery-operated power systems such as the uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) for hospitals, and AC motor drives. Low power level inverters are usually single-phase type and medium and high power inverters are three-phase type. We will look into the performance of DC-AC converters of several useful topologies. The focus will be on the inverter operation for low-frequency output,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,voltages such as 5060 Hz or 400 Hz in aircraft systems. Analyses of DC-AC converter circuits at low and high frequencies are very similar except that at high frequencies the parasitic capacitances and inductances, charge storage, and heat localizing problems in switching devices must be taken into account. Controlled inversion The DC to AC inverter system is shown in Fig.3-5(a). Input is from a DC source and the output is desired to be a sinusoidal voltage or current with,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,zero DC component, single-phase or three-phase signal. The load is a R-L-C load, an AC voltage or an AC current sink. Control parameter may be, as shall be seen later, an angle, a pulse width, a voltage or a current signal. The converter consists of switches, reactive components such as L, C, transformers and resistances. Switches including the diodes are assumed to be ideal and unidirectional, that is, they have zero on-state losses, zero off-state losses, zero switching losses and unrestricted voltage or current carrying,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,capabilities. Switching devices in a practical design example must be selected with these desired characteristics in mind. Inductors, capacitors and transformers are assumed to be ideal.,Fig.3-5(a) A DC-AC inverter system; (b) operational quadrants on the Uo-Io plane,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Electrical loads can be of three types: impedance load, AC voltage sink load or AC current sink load. Examples of impedance load are electromagnetic ac relays, electromagnetic pick up and lift equipments. The load comprises of a large value inductor. Examples of ac voltage sink are the constant speed drives for induction and synchronous motors. Examples of AC current sink are constant torque drives for the induction and synchronous motors.,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Generally speaking, the input current is non-sinusoidal if the source is a DC voltage source and vice versa. The output voltage and the output current on the other hand, can be non-sinusoidal simultaneously. Hence, input and output low-pass filters are generally employed to reduce high frequency components of the non-sinusoidal signals on either side. A series inductor is a current smoother and a parallel capacitor is a voltage smoother.,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Output current generally differs in phase with the output voltage. Hence, in a switching period, the polarities of current and voltage vary over all four quadrants, see Fig.3-6. Power flows from the converter to the load in the first and third quadrants and in the reverse direction in the second and fourth quadrants. A unidirectional switch in the inverters, therefore, has an inverse connected diode in parallel to allow bidirectional current flow.,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Fig.3-6 Output current and output voltage waveform in an inverter,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Inverters derived from voltage source (VSI) are ideally suited for supplying power to a resistive and inductive load and the applications that require constant torque operation of AC motors. Current Source Inverters (CSI) are ideally suited for supplying power to largely capacitive loads and AC voltage buses. Inverters can be further classified on the basis of the mode of control of the output variable: voltage or current. Inverter control in practice concerns three aspects: fundamental frequency, amplitude, harmonic profile.,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Fundamental frequency is either equal to the switching frequency of the inverter (square-wave and PWM inverters) or its simple fraction (1/3, 1/5, and so on) such as in Multiple PWM or sine PWM inverters.Power electronic applications require the amplitude control of output voltage or output current, called Voltage-Mode control and Current-Mode control respectively. An example of Voltage-Mode control is the adjustable speed drives of induction and synchronous motors. An example of Current-Mode,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,control is a constant torque drive for induction motors. Output amplitude in both modes can be controlled by varying the DC source voltage or by varying the pulse-width (pulse-width modulation, PWM). The inverters based on the control of DC source voltage are also termed DC-Link Inverters. These inverters use an AC to controlled DC converter on the input side. The inverter is square-wave controlled. This arrangement is expensive but exhibits a faster response time than PWM inverters. The control circuitry is also simpler.,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Harmonic profiling is an extra feature added over the amplitude control. The objective of harmonic profiling is to bolster the amplitude of the fundamental component of the output voltage and the elimination or reduction of high order harmonics. One of the techniques involves the notching or adding step pulses to a base pulse. The other technique involves multiple pulses per cycle of the fundamental, each pulse-width modulated to achieve desired wave-shaping of the output waveform (Sine-PWM).,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Inverter topologies The DC-AC inverter can be thought of as a three-position switch as shown in Fig.3-7(a). The load is connected to the pole of the switch and the first two positions are connected to dc voltage or dc current sources of opposite polarities. The third position is connected to the zero terminal of the source. The pole of the switch stays in the first and second positions for equal amounts of time in a switching period. The output waveform for zero amount of time on the third position is a square wave. The output waveform for nonzero time is pulse wave.,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,Fig.3-7 (a) The DC-AC inverter implemented by a 3-position switch;(b) the 3-position switch synthesized from two 2-position switches; (c) full-bridge inverter topology,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,The three-position switch may be synthesized by two unidirectional electronic switches as shown in Fig.3-7(b). The third position of the switch is simulated by turning both switches off in VSI topologies and on in CSI topologies. This is the basic bridge inverter topology. The two diodes provide the path for current flow from the load to the source as this may be required in an inverter operation involving more than one quadrant. Inverter supplying load to an R-L load operates in all four quadrants because the output voltage and,Section 3 DC-AC Converters,current waveforms, for some segments in a switching period, have opposing polarities. A MOSFET has a built-in body diode that serves as the path for the current from the source to the drain. An IGBT, however, requires an external diode. The 3- half-bridge inverter is made of three half-bridge inverters connected in parallel each switched 120 apart. This topology is capable of handling high power with minimum component stresses. The half-bridge topology of Fig.3-7(b) requires two separate voltage sources US/2. Fig.3-7(c) shows a full-bridge topology that requires a single voltage source.,Return,New Words and Expressions,invertern. 逆变器uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) 不间断电源single-phasea. 单相的three-phasea. 三相的parametern. 参数unidirectionala. 单极性的，单向的electromagnetica. 电磁的relayv. 中继，转播；n. 继电器,New Words and Expressions,synchronous motor同步电动机torquen. 转矩non-sinusoidala. 非正弦的low-pass 低通smoother n. 滤波器，整平器polarity n. 极性bidirectional a. 双向的harmonics n. 谐波,New Words and Expressions,high order harmonics 高次谐波inductionn. 感应square-wave方波response time响应时间notchingn. ; a. 阶梯式，下凹的，切口，开槽step pulse 阶跃脉冲,Return,Transition of Part of Speech,三、转换为汉语形容词 1、副词转换成形容词(1) Robotics is so closely associated with cybernetics that it is sometimes mistakenly considered to be synonymous. 机器人技术与控制论的联系如此密切，以致两者有时被错误地认为是同一回事。(2) Miniature gas detector is chiefly featured by small size, light weight, complete functions and long continuous working time. 袖珍式瓦斯检测器的主要特点是体积小、重量轻、功能齐全、连续工作时间长。,Transition of Part of Speech,(3) Gases and liquids are perfectly elastic. 气体和液体都是完全的弹性体。,Transition of Part of Speech,2、名词转换成汉语形容词 (1) The nuclear power system designed in China is of great precision. 中国设计的核动力系统十分精确。(2) Electronic computers and microprocessors are of great importance to us. 电子计算机和微处理器对我们来说十分重要。 (3) Single crystals of high perfection are an absolute necessity for the fabrication of integrated circuits. 高度完整的单晶对于制造集成电路来说是绝对必要的。,Transition of Part of Speech,四、转换成汉语副词 1、形容词转换成汉语副词 (1) The engine has given a constantly good performance. 这台发动机一直运转良好。(2) The same principles of low internal resistance also apply to milliammeters. 低内阻的原理同样适用于毫安表。(3) A graph gives a visual representation of the relationship. 图表可以直观地显示要说明的关系。,Transition of Part of Speech,2、其他词转换成副词(1) Rapid evaporation at the heating-surface tends to make the steam wet. 加热面上的迅速蒸发，往往使蒸汽的湿度加大。(2) The added device will ensure accessibility for part loading and unloading. 增添这种装置将保证工件装卸方便。 (3) We shall develop the electric power industry in a way. 我们将大规模发展电力工业。,Return,Exercises,I.

Reducing the harmonic content of the output voltage or current is one of the important tasks of the designers. Harmonics appear as the undesirable noise. Harmonics reduce the power factor. They may excite mechanical resonance at detrimental frequencies or generate acoustical noise in ac motor drive systems. The ripple content (harmonics) is easily reduced by post-filtering after the converter. The post converter low-pass filter may be designed for cutoff fr
