Abstract
- Three-phase transformerless multilevel converters are widely used in the high-voltage photovoltaic power generation systems because of their low total harmonic distortion, high power density, and high conversion efficiency. One three-level flying capacitor converter and dual T-type three-level circuits can be combined to derive the compact and cost-effective nested five-level converter. However, due to the lack of an isolation transformer, the common-mode current is generated to degrade the converter performance. First, the common-mode equivalent circuit model of the nested five-level converter is initially derived to further explore its common-mode current generation mechanism. Then, the zero common-mode space vector modulation (ZCM-SVM) is proposed to reduce the common-mode current, which chooses the specific zero common-mode voltage space vectors to synthesize the reference vector. Then, an advanced coordinate transformation is introduced to realize the flexible sector selection and reduce the complexity of the vector action time calculation. The proposed modulation achieves the common-mode current suppression with high dc bus voltage utilization. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed ZCM-SVM strategy is verified by simulation and experimental results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
