Roos, Stefanus Dawid 14 August 2012 (has links)
M.Ing. / 50 Hz technology has led the plasma torch converters up to now. This technology was used. The high power levels of plasma torches made it difficult to implement high frequency technology. At this stage it is possible to use high-frequency technology in plasma torch applications. This thesis implements a high frequency converter suitable for plasma applications. The converter used for this application is the Partial Series Resonant Converter. A study launched to get the properties of plasmas showed that the control method used at this stage namely current control is not the ideal control method. Changing the control method of the converter made it possible to see what influence it has on the plasma. A thorough large signal analisis of the Partial Series Resonant Converter was done. From this analisis a transfer function of the converter was developed and the control parameters were calculated. This control parameters made it possible to change the control and to investigate the different control methods. The design of the plasma torch converter was based on the design of a distributed transformer, input and output filter and a non-linear controller. The results of the Partial Series Resonant Converter showed that power control leads to a more stable plasma. This thesis made a positive contribution to the knowledge of plasma torches and the knowledge of plasma torch converters. The thesis forms a summarry of plasmas and plasma-related topics, and futher study fields are defined by this thesis.

Analýza elektrodynamických sil v elektrických přístrojích / Analysis of electrodynamic forces in electrcal apparatus

Dobrovolný, Jan January 2020 (has links)
The master thesis deals with the phenomena called electro-dynamic force in the electrical apparatus. Nowadays, there are high requirements for electrical devices. The devices and especially their contacts are subject to high demands on reliability, reliability and mechanical durability. The electro-dynamic forces caused by the passage of electric current mechanically deform the current path. The design of the electrical apparatus must take these forces into account. Equations for electro-dynamic forces calculation are presented. In master thesis, individual parts of the current path are derived and described. Various configurations and designs of the current path are solved. The thesis also deals with the issue of forces in electrical contacts. Individual theoretical equations are then applied to a particular disconnector QAK, made by company IVEP, a.s. Parts of the disconnector were redrawn into 3D program SolidWorks. The model was analysed in program ANSYS Maxwell. The thesis compares the achieved results of analytical equations and numerical simulations.

Three-phase multilevel solar inverter for motor drive system

Bhasagare, Mayuresh P. 04 1900 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / This thesis deals with three phase inverters and the different control strategies that can be associated with an inverter being used together. The first part of this thesis discusses the present research in the fields of PV panels, motor drive systems and three phase inverters along with their control. This control includes various strategies like MPPT, Volts-Hertz and modulation index compensation. Incorporating these techniques together is the goal of this thesis. A new topology for operating an open end motor drive system has also been discusses, where a boost converter and a flyback converter have been used in cascade to run a three phase motor. The main advantage of this is increasing the number of levels and improving the quality of the output voltage, not to mention a few other benefits of having the proposed circuit. A new algorithm has also been designed for starting and stopping the motor, which controls the current drawn from the power source during starting.

Control of Non-minimum Phase Power Converters

Gavini, Sree Likhita 05 1900 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The inner structural characteristics of non-minimum phase DC-DC converters pose a severe limitation in direct regulation of voltage when addressed from a control perspective. This constraint is reflected by the presence of right half plane zeros or the unstable zero dynamics of the output voltage of these converters. The existing controllers make use of one-to-one correspondence between the voltage and current equilibriums of the non-minimum phase converters and exploit the property that when the average output of these converters is the inductor current, the system dynamics are stable and hence they indirectly regulate the voltage. As a result, the system performance is susceptible to circuit parameter and load variation and require additional controllers, which in turn increase the system complexity. In this thesis, a novel approach to this problem is proposed for second order non-minimum phase converters such as Boost and Buck-Boost Converter. Different solutions have been suggested to the problem based on whether the converter is modeled as a linear system or as a nonlinear system. For the converter modeled as a linear system, the non-minimum phase part of the system is decoupled and its transfer function is converted to minimum phase using a parallel compensator. Then the control action is achieved by using a simple proportional gain controller. This method accelerates the transient response of the converter, reduces the initial undershoot in the response, and considerably reduces the oscillations in the transient response. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. When the converter is modeled as a bilinear system, it preserves the stabilizing nonlinearities of the system. Hence, a more effective control approach is adopted by using Passivity properties. In this approach, the non-minimum phase converter system is viewed from an energy-based perspective and the property of passivity is used to achieve stable zero dynamics of the output voltage. A system is passive if its rate of energy storage is less than the supply rate i.e. the system dissipates more energy than stores. As a result, the energy storage function of the system is less than the supply rate function. Non-minimum phase systems are not passive, and passivation of non-minimum phase power converters is an attractive solution to the posed problem. Stability of non-minimum phase systems can also be investigated by defining the passivity indices. This research approaches the problem by characterizing the degree of passivity i.e. the amount of damping in the system, from passivity indices. Thus, the problem is viewed from a system level rather than from a circuit level description. This method uses feed-forward passivation to compensate for the shortage of passivity in the non-minimum phase converter and makes use of a parallel interconnection to the open-loop system to attain exponentially stable zero dynamics of the output voltage. Detailed analytical analysis regarding the control structure and passivation process is performed on a buck-boost converter. Simulation and experimental results carried out on the test bed validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Topology and Control Investigation for Low-voltage High-current Isolated DC-DC Converters

Mao, Hong 01 January 2004 (has links) (PDF)
High conversion efficiency and fast transient response at high switching frequency are the two main challenges for low-voltage high-current DC-DC converters, which are the motivations of the dissertation work. To reduce the switching power loss, soft switching is a desirable technique to keep power loss under control at high switching frequencies. A Duty-Cycle-Shift (DCS) concept is proposed for half-bridge DC-DC converters to reduce switching loss. The concept of this new control scheme is shifting one of the two symmetric PWM driving signals close to the other, such that ZVS can be achieved for the lagging switch due to the shortened resonant interval. By applying a basic DCS concept to a conventional half-bridge DC-DC converter, Zero-Voltage-Switching is achieved for one of the two primary switches. To achieve ZVS for the other switch, a ZVS half-bridge topology is proposed. Basically, by adding an active branch to the conventional half-bridge topology, the leakage inductance energy is trapped during the freewheeling time, and the energy is released to achieve ZVS for the other switch. In addition, a modified ZVS half-bridge topology is proposed to ground the auxiliary switch, and thus, a simple drive circuitry can be applied to the auxiliary switch. Leakage inductance leads to ringing issue in a half-bridge DC-DC converter. An active-clamp snubber topology is presented in the half-bridge DC-DC converters to recycle the leakage inductance energy and attenuate the ringing. Since dissipative snubbers are removed, a converter can operate more efficiently. Body-diode reverse-recovery-related loss in SRs increases with the switching frequency. To reduce this reverse-recovery loss, two passive snubber circuits are proposed for SR rectifiers in a current dubler rectifier. The proposed snubbers attenuate reverse recovery ringing and higher efficiencies are achieved. A unified DC model is derived based on the state-space average equation, which is suited for both symmetric and asymmetric half-bridge DC-DC converters. Furthermore, the DC analysis is conducted based on the unified DC model for symmetric and asymmetric half-bridge DC-DC converters with current-doubler rectifier. The AC model of isolated DC-DC converters is also established, and output impedance is analyzed for the purpose of transient response investigation. A two-stage approach is a trade-off between conversion efficiency and fast transient response. Full-Duty-Cycle (FDC) two-stage architecture is proposed to achieve desirable open-loop output impedance and fast transient response. Class-D resonant converters are investigated and recognized as potential topologies to reduce switching loss and SR conduction loss. Considering the limited regulation capability of class-D resonant converters, low-Q SRC and LLC resonant converters are proposed as candidate topologies in two-stage approaches.

A computer-aided graphic design tool for minimum weight inductors in switching converters

Rajarathnam, Ramkumar 20 November 2012 (has links)
A computer-aided design procedure has been developed to determine the minimum weight design solutions, for singly wound EE- and EI-cored inductors that perform the functions of energy storage and transfer in switching DC–DC power converters. Three converter topologies, namely the Buck, the Boost, and the Buck/Boost have been considered in implementing the closed form Lagrange Multiplier-based solution to the design problem. A notable feature is the interactive use of design graphs to facilitate a trade-off study between the weight of the inductor, the total losses in the inductor and the peak current stress in the switching transistor and diode. Thus useful insight is obtained by bringing aspects of converter design into view. Practical core and magnetic material data from manufacturer's catalogs can be specified and the design optimized for the minimal weight. / Master of Science

The large-signal transient response of duty ratio controlled dc-to-dc converters is investigated using the phase-plane technique. The transition pattern of large-signal trajectories is provided in terms of the circuit parameter and operating conditions. Several transient trajectories of practical interest including start-up, step input voltage change and step-load change are analyzed. The effect of large-signal characteristics of the feedback controller on the transient trajectory is presented. / Master of Science
