    Abstract: If an input voltage of a DC/DC converter is lower than a first voltage value that is set in advance, a converter controller maintains an output voltage of the DC/DC converter within a first voltage range that is set in advance by changing an operation frequency of switching of the DC/DC converter in compliance with the input voltage as a first voltage maintaining control. If the input voltage is higher than a second voltage value that is higher than the first voltage value, the converter controller maintains the output voltage within a second voltage range that is higher than the first voltage range by changing the operation frequency in compliance with the input voltage as a second voltage maintaining control.

    Abstract: A power conversion device includes: power conversion cells; and a controller to control the cells. Each cell includes: a transformer; a primary conversion unit on a primary side of the transformer; a secondary conversion unit on a secondary side; a primary bypass device for short-circuiting between input terminals of the cell; and a secondary bypass device for short-circuiting between output terminals of the cell. The input terminals and/or the output terminals of the cells are connected in series. When the primary conversion unit(s) of a part of the cells is stopped, the controller turns on the primary bypass device and sets secondary DC link voltages to prescribed values; and when the secondary conversion unit(s) of a part of the cells is stopped, the controller turns on the secondary bypass device and controls the primary conversions units to set primary DC link voltages to prescribed values.

    Abstract: In a power conversion device in a configuration in which a plurality of power converter cells has serially connected outputs and includes a converter and an inverter as components, when a load is light, the cells also operate with a light load, and efficiency is reduced. A power conversion device has a plurality of power converter cells. The outputs of the cells are connected in series. The device has a controller that controls the cells. The cells each have a converter that converts an externally inputted power supply voltage and generates a DC link voltage and an inverter that converts the DC link voltage into an alternating current voltage and outputs the current. The controller stops a converter in some of the cells depending on power supply electric power or load electric power. The inverter continues to operate using a link capacitor as a power supply.

    Abstract: Reduction in size and weight of transformer for grid tie applications is demanded and can be achieved by applying SST to the transformer. However, SST application to PCS for sunlight requires the following: handle a wide variation range of the voltage of solar power generation; reduce switching losses of power devices, DC/DC converter and inverter, in the power circuit to implement high frequency for SST application; increase voltage to the grid voltage; and reduce the dimensions of the high current path prior to step-up. Thus, LLC resonant converter configuration is applied with an inverter placed in the output, and series connected configuration is applied to the inverter. The LLC resonant converter is subject to constant frequency regulation with large output, step-up control with low output, and step-down control with the upper limit voltage according to MPPT voltage from sunlight, in order to achieve drive loss reduction and voltage range handling.
