  1. 1. On control of cascaded H-bridge converters for STATCOM applications

    Author : Ehsan Behrouzian; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cascaded H-bridge converters; FACTS.; Modular Multilevel Converters MMC ; STATCOM;

    Abstract : Cascaded H-bridge (CHB) converters are today considered the industrial standard for STATCOM applications, mainly due to their small footprint, high achievable voltage levels, modularity and reduced losses. However, there are still areas of research that need to be investigated in order to improve the performance and the operational range of this converter topology for grid-applications. READ MORE

  2. 2. Operation and control of cascaded H-bridge converter for STATCOM application

    Author : Ehsan Behrouzian; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modular Multilevel Converters MMC ; STATCOM; FACTS.; cascaded H-bridge converters;

    Abstract : In the last decade, particular attention has been paid to the use of Modular Multilevel Converters(MMC) for grid applications. In particular, for STATCOM applications the phase leg ofthe converter is constituted by a number of single-phase full-bridge converters connected incascade (here named Cascaded H-Bridge, CHB, converter).

    Abstract : Modular battery systems based on multilevel inverter (MLI) topologies can possibly overcome some shortcomings of two-level inverters when used for vehicle propulsion. The results presented in this thesis aim to point out the advantages and disadvantages, as well as the technical challenges, of modular vehicle battery systems based on MLIs in comparison to a conventional, two-level IGBT inverter drivetrain.

  4. 4. Cascaded Converters with Gate-Commutated Thyristors : Experimental Verification and Auxiliary Power Supply

    Author : Tomas Modeer; Hans-Peter Nee; Staffan Norrga; Dragan Jovcic; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis describes an effort to investigate the use of gate-commutated thyristors(GCTs) in cascaded converters. Cascaded converters, such as modularmultilevel converters (M2Cs) and cascaded H-bridge converters (CHBs), haveproved to be especially suitable in high-voltage, high-power applications. READ MORE

  5. 5. Grid Connection of Permanent Magnet Generator Based Renewable Energy Systems

    Author : Senad Apelfröjd; Sandra Eriksson; Frans Dijkhuizen; Uppsala universitet; []
