Three-phase ac-dc power supply design and experiments using a sic based power moduleRaval, Chintan A. January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering / Behrooz Mirafzal / The rise of Wide Band Gap (WBG) devices has brought excitement in the field of Power converters. The WBG based converter can operate at the very high frequency and temperature making them ideal to use in harsh environments. The commercialization of WBG devices such as SiC and GaN MOSFETs has made it interesting for power engineering professionals all over the world. The use of WBG devices capable of operating at high switching frequencies reduces the overall system size dramatically with added benefit of improved power quality at high temperature. The main goal of this thesis is to design and test an AC-DC converter based on a SiC power module. The designed rectifier can be considered an active rectifier equipped with a controller to constantly provide feedback for modification of switching signals to get the desired output voltage. The designed active rectifier converts the varying frequency input power supply into rectified DC voltage while keeping the power factor of the system to unity. This thesis covers elementary information on power supply design, switching schemes and design of the controller. System arrangement will provide more light on the use of Six Channel MOSFET Gate Driver from CREE with the overall experimental setup. The experimental analysis will summarize the behavior of the system where information on achieved rectification, effect on the line currents at the generator and concluding power factor representation is described.

Design and implementation of the main controller of a solid-state transformerSchietekat, Louis Magnus 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MScEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2011. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The Solid-State Transformer (SST) is presented as an alternative to the traditional Line-Frequency
Transformer (LFT) used for voltage-level transformation in distribution grids. The LFT technology
is highly matured which results in low costs and high efficiency. The SST however, introduces
several advantages compared to the LFT, some of which are input unity power-factor,
near perfect output-voltage regulation, frequency variation as well as harmonic filtering.
The SST consists of three power-electronic converter stages: The input stage, the isolation
stage and the output stage. The input and isolation stages are implemented with a multilevelconverter
topology incorporating a converter-stack for each phase. Each stack consists of N
converter building blocks, called cells. In this thesis the design and implementation of the main
controller is presented. The main controller, together with N cell controllers, is responsible for
the control of the cells within the respective stack. Three main controllers are thus implemented
within the SST.
Each cell consists of an Active Rectifier (AR) and a DC-DC Converter (DC-DC). The SST
control design thus starts with the AR control which is subsequently expanded to Cascaded
Active-Rectifier (CAR) control. Design is completed with the addition of the DC-DC control.
Time domain simulations of the AR- and CAR-control are presented and discussed. Test measurements,
verifying functionality of each control design-phase, are presented and discussed. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die Drywingselektroniese Transformator (DET) word voorgestel as ’n alternatief vir die Lyn

The DET bied wel voordele soos intree eenheids arbeid faktor, na aan perfecte uittree-spannings
regulasie, frequensie variasie sovel as harmoniese filrteering.
Die DET bestaan uit drie drywingselektroniese omsetter stadiums: Die intree-stadium, die
isolasie-stadium en die uittree-stadium. The intree- en isolasie-stadiums word geïmplimenteer
met ’n multivlak-omsetter topologie wat bestaan uit ’n omsetter-stapel vir elke fase. Elke stapel

beheer. Tyd-gebied simulasies van die AG- en KAG-beheer word voorgelê en bespreek.

Power Electronic Stages for a TFPMSM in Wave Power ApplicationsFalk Olson, Gustaf January 2016 (has links)
Direct drive wave energy conversion systems have been identified as a potentially major contributor to the world’s energy demands, forecasting shares of up to 25 % of the energy mix. Anders Hagnestål conducts research at the Royal Institute of Technology where a novel linear transverse flux permanent magnet generator is developed. This concept machine is particularly well-suited for the pertaining operating conditions in marine environments, producing large forces at low speeds with outstandingly low resistive losses. However, it exhibits severe magnetic saturation and draws unsymmetrical phase currents at nominal operation. In addition, it possesses a low power factor. All in all, this places stern requirements on the power electronic system and control algorithms. The aim of this thesis has been to design a functioning power conditioning system that connects the machine to the electric grid. For this purpose, a three-phase two-level voltage source converter is proposed to be back-to-back connected with two-level single-phase voltage source converters (active rectifiers) interfacing each and every machine phase. It is shown that the intermediate DC link can be maintained at a constant voltage with restricted ripple while feeding power at unity power factor to the grid by appropriately sizing the DC capacitor and adopting a feedback linearization control scheme. The phase currents can be controlled effectively by means of a cascaded gain-scheduled PID controller. By including a low-pass filter the iron losses in the machine may be suppressed even at lower switching frequencies. A constrained cost optimization indicates that the converter consequently can reach 99.1 % efficiency. Finally, with this thesis as a background, it is suggested that the thermal stresses on the selected semiconductor modules and the iron losses of the machine are evaluated to further improve the design. If higher efficiency of the active rectifiers is strived for, more complex converter topologies could be considered. / Direktdrivna vågenergiomvandlingssystem har utpekats som en potentiellt starkt bidragande resurs för att tillgodose världens efterfrågan på energi med andelar på uppemot 25 % av energimixen förutspådda. Anders Hagnestål bedriver forskning och utveckling av en ny typ av linjär permanentmagnetiserad transversalflödesmaskin vid Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan. Konceptmaskinen är särskilt väl lämpad för de rådande marina förhållandena genom att kunna producera stora krafter vid låga hastigheter med utomordentligt låga resistiva förluster. Maskinen går emellertid i kraftig magnetisk mättnad och drar asymmetriska strömmar vid nominell drift. Dessutom är effektfaktorn låg i jämförelse med standardmaskiner. Alltsomallt inför detta hårda krav på det effektelektroniska systemet och kontrollalgoritmerna. Målet med detta examensarbete har varit att designa ett funktionellt effektkonditioneringssystem som sammanfogar maskinen med det angränsande elektriska nätet. För att åstadkomma detta föreslås att en tvånivås-trefasomriktare kopplas rygg-mot-rygg till tvånivås-enfasomvandlare (aktiva likriktare) som i sin tur är kopplade till varje maskinfas. Med den här konfigurationen visas det att spänningen på den mellanliggande DC-länken kan hållas konstant med begränsat rippel, alltmedan effekt tillförs nätet vid effektfaktor ett genom att dimensionera DC-kondensatorn på rätt sätt och använda en kontrollag baserad på exakt linjärisering. Maskinens fasströmmar kan kontrolleras effektivt med hjälp av en kaskadkopplad PID-regulator med schemalagda förstärkningsfaktorer. Genom att inkludera ett lågpassfilter förväntas det att järnförlusterna i maskinen kan begränsas även vid lägre switchfrekvenser. Genom att lösa ett kostnadsoptimeringsproblem visas det att den resulterande aktiva likriktaren kan uppnå en verkningsgrad på 99.1 %. Slutligen, med det här examensarbetet som grund, föreslås det att den termiska stressen på de valda halvledarkomponentsmodulerna och järnförlusterna i maskinen utvärderas för att ytterligare förbättra designen. Om högre verkningsgrad eftersträvas hos de aktiva likriktarna kan mer komplicerade omvandlartopologier övervägas.

Terminal Behavioral Modeling of Electric Machines for Real-time Emulation and System-level AnalysisNazari, Arash 20 September 2022 (has links)
Stability and sustainability of operation of interconnected power converter systems has been an important focus of study in the field of power electronics and power systems. With ever-increasing application of electrical machines by means of electrification of vehicles, airplanes and shipboards, detailed study of the relating dynamics is very important to ensure the proper implementation and stable behavior of the overall system. In this work, the application of the black box approach study of the power converters has been expanded to the electrical machines. Using this modeling method, it is possible of have accurate behavior of electrical and mechanical terminals of the machine without the detailed information about the internal structure of the machine, material characteristics or topology of the machine. Instead, accurate model of electrical and mechanical terminals of the machine are achieved by measuring specific frequency responses of the machine to distinguish dynamic relation of the various electrical and mechanical quantities of the machine. The directly measured frequency responses, are coupled with the dynamics of the source and load in the electrical and mechanical terminals of the machine thus in order to decoupled the described couplings a mathematical process is used that results in decoupling of the controller and drive on the electrical side and the dynamics of the mechanical load and mechanical shaft at the mechanical terminal of the machine. Resulting model is the linear time invariant representation of the electrical machine at a specific operating point. Additionally, this work represents the application of this modeling method for accurate measurement of internal parameters of the machine such as inductances and mechanical inertia and characterization of the mechanical shaft coupler. Resulting unterminated model of the machine is a very important matter of information for system integrators and electrical and mechanical designs related to the application of the machine, to ensure the stable and sustainable operation of the machine. This work for the first time, represents the experimental implementation of this terminal behavioral modeling method for studying electrical machines as well as describes some of the practical limitations of this methodology. By incorporating and integrating a combination of commercially available devices such as frequency response analyzer, Hardware-In-The-Loop (HIL), Power-Hardware-In-The-Loop (PHIL), a test setup has been developed that is capable of control, operate and study arbitrary frame small-signal related measurements required for terminal behavioral study of the electrical machines. Resulting model of the machine that has been extracted from this modeling method is then used to compare in time domain with the real machine in the case of transient change in the mechanical load on the shaft to discover the validity of this modeling procedure. / Master of Science / According to the data from the International Energy Agency, around half of the electricity used globally is consumed by electric motors. Moreover, the growth in the electrical vehicle industry will increase their application even further, hence the development of high-fidelity models of electric machines for real-time emulation, system-level analyses, and stability studies still stands out as an important and needed research focus. New modeling concepts that go beyond the standard industry practice can be used at the design and integration stage to ensure the stable behavior of the overall system. Furthermore, convenient testing and identification pressures can help ensure the long-term operation of the system. Aligned with this trend, this thesis is studying permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) using small-signal terminal-behavioral three-port networks. Having such a behavioral model of the machine available provides many opportunities for system integrators, and even enables an in-situ system observation and stability assessment at both the machine's electrical and mechanical interfaces. This capability can undoubtedly be of high importance in practice, as it is offering new insights into dynamic interactions of the electro-mechanical systems, the governor or turbine control design in ships, aircrafts, electrical vehicles, and even large synchronous machines in power plants. A so-called characterization testbed has been built that combines Hardware-In-The-Loop (HIL) and Power-Hardware-In-The-Loop (PHIL) environments, with sensor-interface boards that are used to properly scale measured signals for machine control. The Frequency-Response-Analyzer is used to sweep the proper electrical or mechanical terminal of the machine by perturbing the proper control signal within the machine controller running in PHIL and reading d-q currents, voltages, torque, and speed variables whose dynamic ratios are then obtained without the need for interrupting the normal operation of the electrical machine. The capability of acquiring such a detailed model of the machine while the machine is in operation is an important benefit of this modeling method, in comparison to the conventional identification methods widely applied in the industry. The resulting model is a linearized time invariant representation of the electrical machine at a specific operating point of interest, and can be used by system integrators to ensure the stability of the system using well known stability assessment methodologies. Furthermore, this modeling strategy has been experimentally verified for the first time on electrical machines, and the resulting model has been compared with the transient behavior of the machine in the presence of a step change in the mechanical load of the machine.

Étude et mise en œuvre de couplage thermoélectrique en vue de l'intensification d'échange de chaleur par morphing électroactif / Study and implementation of thermoelectric coupling in order to the heat exchange intensification by electroactive morphingAmokrane, Mounir 03 July 2013 (has links)
Le développement et l’utilisation de nouveaux matériaux, tel que le carbure de silicium (SiC) et le nitrure de gallium (GaN), a permis un accroissement sensible des densités d’énergie traitées par les nouveaux composants de l’électronique de puissance, assortie d’une augmentation de leur compacité. Parallèlement à ces progrès technologiques, la généralisation de l’électricité en tant que vecteur d’énergie primaire au sein de systèmes de plus en plus répartis, incluant des moyens de traitement de l’information au plus près de la fonction réalisée, ouvre la voie à une nouvelle génération de systèmes mécatroniques hautement intégrés. Or, l’émergence de ces nouvelles fonctions soulève une question critique liée au mode de refroidissement de ces éléments. Cette question est intimement couplée aux aspects énergétiques et à leur impact environnemental, imposant une amélioration significative des rendements énergétiques mesurés à l’échelle de la fonction complète. C’est dans ce contexte que l’étude présentée traite tout d’abord de systèmes de récupération de la chaleur résiduelle dissipée au sein de systèmes électroniques de puissance en vue d’alimenter de manière autonome des capteurs, où autres systèmes fonctionnels, via l’énergie « ambiante » ainsi récupérée. Parmi les consommateurs plus particulièrement ciblés, des fonctions innovantes d’intensification par voie électromécanique des échanges de chaleurs au sein d’échangeurs thermique sont étudiées et mises en œuvre. A terme, l’idée serait ainsi d’alimenter les systèmes d’actionnement assurant l’optimisation des échanges de chaleur au sein du système de refroidissement d’une carte électronique au moyen même de la chaleur qu’elle dissipe, récupérée sous forme d’énergie électrique. A cette fin, les différents procédés de conversion de la chaleur en électricité sont examinés, modélisés et mis en œuvre dans la suite de ce travail. Deux types de conversion d’énergie complémentaires sont tour à tour considérés : La conversion par effet thermoélectrique, utilisant l’effet Seebeck qui a lieu en présence d’un gradient de température et l’effet pyroélectrique qui apparait en présence de variation temporelle de la température. Ces deux phénomènes sont analysés et décrits à l’aide de modélisations physiques et comportementales, incluant une approche expérimentale ayant nécessité la mise en place de bancs d’essai spécifiques. L’électricité récupérée par conversion pyroélectrique est par la suite mise en forme grâce à des systèmes de redressement à faible tension de seuil spécialement développés. La faisabilité de systèmes d’alimentation autonomes de capteurs déportés, où de systèmes d’émission (ponctuelle) de mesure, est alors concrètement démontrée en se basant sur les résultats obtenus. Ouvrant la voie à un concept de refroidissement actif des puces électroniques, tirant directement parti de la chaleur dissipée pour son alimentation grâce aux deux procédés préalablement étudiés, la problématique de l’intensification des transferts de chaleur au sein de boucles de refroidissement mécaniquement activées est abordée dans la dernière partie du mémoire. Cette activation est réalisée à l’aide d’un système d’actionnement multicellulaire réparti à base d’actionneurs piézoélectriques. Développée en étroite collaboration avec des équipes de thermodynamiciens, l’idée est de réaliser un pompage de fluide ainsi qu’une modification des échanges de chaleur au sein d’un système de transfert de chaleur en activant les parois de l’échangeur de chaleur par déformation. Le système d’actionnement préconisé est tout d’abord étudié et simulé par un calcul par éléments finis. Un prototype est construit et caractérisé sous conditions réelles dans un deuxième temps. [...] / The development and use of new materials, such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) has a significant increase in energy densities handled by the new components of power electronics, accompanied by an increase in compactness. Parallel to these technological advances, the widespread use of electricity as a primary energy carrier within systems increasingly distributed, including means for processing information closer to the function carried out, paving the way a new generation of highly integrated mechatronic systems. However, the emergence of these new features raises a critical question related to cooling mode thereof. This question is closely coupled to the energy aspects and their environmental impact, imposing a significant improvement in measured across the full energy function returns. It is in this context that the present study deals firstly recovery systems waste heat dissipated in power electronic systems for autonomous power sensors, where other functional systems via energy "room" and recovered. Particularly among targeted consumers, innovative features intensification electromechanically exchanges heat in heat exchangers are studied and implemented. Eventually, the idea would be to supply the operating systems for the optimization of heat exchange in the cooling system of an electronic card in the same way that heat dissipates, recovered in the form of electrical energy. To this end, various methods of conversion of heat into electricity are considered, modeled and implemented in the course of this work. Two complementary types of energy conversion are considered in turn : The thermoelectric conversion effect by using the Seebeck effect which takes place in the presence of a temperature gradient and the pyroelectric effect that appears in the presence of temporal variation of the temperature. These two phenomena are analyzed and described using physical and behavioral models, including an experimental approach requiring the establishment of specific test benches. The electricity recovered by pyroelectric conversion is then formatted with recovery systems, low voltage specially developed threshold. The feasibility of remote sensors autonomous supply, where emission (point) measuring systems, is then demonstrated concretely based on the results systems. Paving the way to a concept of active cooling computer chips, drawing directly from the heat dissipated for food through two methods previously studied the problem of intensification of heat transfer in cooling loops mechanically activated is discussed in the latter part of the memory. This activation is carried out using a distributed drive system multicellular based piezoelectric actuators. Developed in close collaboration with teams of thermodynamics, the idea is to provide a fluid pump and a change of heat transfer in a heat transfer system by activating the walls of the heat exchanger deformation. The operating system is called first studied and simulated by a finite element calculation. A prototype is built and characterized under actual conditions in a second time. The multicellular actuating system composed of a plurality of actuators and a supply system configurable multipath is then integrated into an exchange of heat testbed specifically developed. This experience is a fundamental first step in the development of electroactive systems, potentially autonomous, allowing the intensification of heat exchange in cooling loops for high-performance power electronics.

Analysis Of A Wave Power System With Passive And Active RectificationWahid, Ferdus January 2020 (has links)
Wave energy converter (WEC) harnesses energy from the ocean to produce electrical power. The electrical power produced by the WEC is fluctuating and is not maximized as well, due to the varying ocean conditions. As a consequence, without any intermediate power conversion stage, the output power from the WEC can not be fed into the grid. To feed WEC output power into the grid, a two-stage power conversion topology is used, where the WEC output power is first converted into DCpower through rectification, and then a DC-AC converter (inverter) is used to supply AC power into the grid. The main motive of this research is to extract maximum electrical power from the WEC by active rectification and smoothing the power fluctuation of the wave energy converter through a hybrid energy storage system consisting of battery and flywheel. This research also illustrates active and reactive power injection to the grid according to load demand through a voltage source inverter.
