Abstract
- Inverter's performance and operating mode may be negatively affected by inverter input (dc‐link) current and voltage ripple. It is a common experience that even theoretically balanced loads with perfectly balanced supply voltages, such as multiphase ac motors supplied by pulse‐width modulation (PWM) inverters, in practice show a certain degree of current unbalance, in the range of a few percent, which introduces a low‐frequency instantaneous power oscillation. This reflects in current and voltage low‐frequency ripple on the dc‐link inverter side (i.e. at the double‐fundamental frequency). A possible method to analyse this matter is through the symmetric sequence components. In particular, based on the first negative current sequence component and by considering the equivalent dc‐link impedance calculated at the dominant double‐fundamental frequency, the amplitude of the corresponding dc‐link voltage ripple component is calculated in this work for a general multiphase load. Finally, the design of the dc‐link capacitor in multiphase inverters is proposed considering requirements referred to the double‐fundamental dc voltage ripple. The feasibility of the proposed developments has been verified for three‐, five‐ and seven‐phase inverters by both numerical simulations and comprehensive experimental tests, always showing a good matching.
