Abstract:
A DC-to-DC converter includes a first switching circuit, a second switching circuit, a transformer positioned between an AC side of the first switching circuit and an AC side of the second switching circuit, an inductance element positioned between the transformer and at least one of the AC side of the first switching circuit and the AC side of the second switching circuit, and control circuitry that operates the first switching circuit and the second switching circuit. The control circuitry sets a predetermined operation ratio of the first switching circuit and the second switching circuit to each other, and adjusts, based on the predetermined operation ratio, a first operation period of the first switching circuit and a second operation period of the second switching circuit.
Abstract:
A power converter according to one embodiment includes a controller that switches between a boosting operation in a boost circuit and a pulse-width modulation operation in a single-phase inverter. The controller modifies an output from a voltage detection filter based on a delay compensating value for compensating a detection delay introduced by the voltage detection filter, when switching is performed the boosting operation in the boost circuit to the PWM operation in the single-phase inverter.
Abstract:
A power converter according to embodiments includes a boost circuit, a single-phase inverter, a current controller, and a power conversion controller. The current controller generates a voltage reference based on a difference between current output from the single-phase inverter and a current reference. The power conversion controller controls the single-phase inverter to generate a first portion of the AC voltage, and controls the boost circuit to generate a second portion of the AC voltage. The first portion corresponds to the voltage reference of which an absolute value is smaller than the voltage of the DC power supply. The second portion corresponds to the voltage reference of which an absolute value is greater than the voltage of the DC power supply.
Abstract:
A current-source power converting apparatus includes: a converter unit configured to convert an AC or DC voltage input from a power supply into a predetermined DC voltage; an inverter unit configured to convert a DC voltage supplied from the converter unit via a DC reactor into an AC voltage and output the AC voltage; and a controller configured to control the inverter unit at a modulation factor in correspondence with a step up/step down ratio based on a ratio of an output voltage from the inverter unit to an input voltage from the power supply.
