0 likes45 views
This document analyzes a cascaded h-bridge multilevel inverter (CHBI) using transformers with varying turn ratios to enhance output voltage levels. It proposes a new switching method for ensuring balanced voltage distribution among the H-bridge cells and includes experimental validation through a three-phase 21-level CHBI. Key considerations for transformer configuration and voltage range are discussed for practical application in power supply systems.

CONCLUSION:
Transformer-based CHBI topology was introduced in this paper. The comparison analysis
between topologies was shown in Table XI. The theoretical analysis regarding the selection of
the turns ratio of the subtransformer was presented. In addition, a switching method based on the
level-shifted switching method with the balanced voltage and power distributions was proposed
for the transformer-based CHBI topology. Several requirements related to the decision of
switching devices and the design of transformer were suggested.A21-level CHBIwas used to
determine the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed switching method.
When using the proposed switching method, two issues are to be noted: 1) to use the proposed
switching method, the configuration of transformer-based CHBI topology should follow that of
Table II. It guarantees that the minimum variation (dVx ) of the voltage level is always the same.
2) If the system operates in the wide voltage range (wideMi ), Table VII should be changed as
that explained in this paper to guarantee a balanced voltage distribution for Mi range required.
Table VI guarantees a balanced voltage distribution for 0.8<Mi < 1. Consequently, this
configuration can be applied for the main power supply system generating the ac voltage in grid.

The transformers used in this paper are connected to the output of the respective HBCs, and the secondary sides of all the transformers are connected in series for generating the final output voltage. Only one of the transformers, in particular, has a different turn ratio for increasing the output voltage level. In this paper, the possible turn ratio of the special transformer with a different turn ratio is discussed in detail, and a switching method based on the level-shifted switching method for the topology used in this paper is proposed. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, a three-phase 21-level CHBI is experimentally tested. KEYWORDS: 1. Cascaded H-bridge inverter (CHBI) 2. Cascaded multilevel 3.
