Single-Phase Grid-Connected Motor Drive System With DC-Link Shunt Compensator and Small DC-Link Capacitor

摘要

The single-phase diode rectifier system with small dc-link capacitor shows wide diode conduction time and it improves the grid current harmonics. By shaping the output power, the system meets the grid current harmonics regulation without any power factor corrector or grid filter inductor. However, the system has torque ripple and suffers efficiency degradation due to the insufficient dc-link voltage. To solve this problem, this paper proposes the dc-link shunt compensator (DSC) for small dc-link capacitor systems. DSC is located on dc-node in parallel and operates as voltage source, improving the system performances. This circuit helps the grid current-shaping control during grid-connection time, and reduces the flux-weakening current by supplying the energy to the motor during grid-disconnection time. This paper presents a power control method and the design guideline of DSC. The feasibility of DSC is verified by simulation and experimental results.
