Integrated Three-Level Dual-Phase Inverter

In view of reducing the number of inverter legs that provide dual-phase, three-level output voltages (as may be needed in an uninterruptible power supply), and that also provide a wide range of output frequencies (as needed in an advanced motor drive system with wide speed ranges), a three-level, du...

description In view of reducing the number of inverter legs that provide dual-phase, three-level output voltages (as may be needed in an uninterruptible power supply), and that also provide a wide range of output frequencies (as needed in an advanced motor drive system with wide speed ranges), a three-level, dual-phase inverter topology is presented in this paper. Its three-level attribute was based on the F-type inverter topological concept, and its dual-output feature was based on the common representation of the inverter-leg concept. The proposed inverter could deliver single- and three-phase voltages to corresponding one- and three-phase loads, in common or different frequency modes of operation. A boundary between these modes of operation was established for the proposed inverter. An additional possibility of either operation in the one-phase or the three-phase system was offered by the inverter configuration. A modified carrier-based sinusoidal pulse-width modulation scheme is presented for the control of the inverter topology. The performances of the dual-phase inverter are given in the simulation results and demonstrated with a hardware prototype.
