  1. 11. Modeling and Design of Modular MultilevelConverters for Grid Applications

    Author : Kalle Ilves; Nee Hans-Peter; Alireza Nami; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modular multilevel converter; feed-forward control; modulation; switching frequency; energy storage;

    Abstract : Grid-connected high-power converters are found in high-voltage direct current transmission (HVDC), static compensators (STATCOMs), and supplies for electric railways. Such power converters should have a high reliability, high efficiency, good harmonic performance, low cost, and a small footprint. READ MORE

  2. 12. Thermal and State-of-Charge Balancing of Batteries using Multilevel Converters

    Author : Faisal Altaf; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal balancing; Convex optimization; DC-link ripple; Battery ripple; Battery control; Hybrid electric vehicles.; Multilevel converter; Cell balancing;

    Abstract : Driven by the needs to reduce the dependence of fossil fuels and the emissions of conventional vehicles there has in recent years been an increasing interest in battery-powered electrified vehicles (xEVs). In xEVs, the battery pack, built from many small cells, is one of the most expensive components in the powertrain. READ MORE

  3. 13. Modulation of Modular Multilevel Converters for HVDC Transmission

    Author : Arman Hassanpoor; Hans-Peter Nee; Staffan Norrga; Rainer Marquardt; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HVDC; switching schemes; modulation; high power converters; power grids; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The outstanding features of modular multilevel converters (MMC) have recently gained much attention in the high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) transmission field. Power quality, converter cost and system performance are three crucial aspects of HVDC MMCs which are directly linked to the converter modulation and switching schemes. READ MORE

  4. 14. Main Circuits, Submodules, and Auxiliary Power Concepts for Converters in HVDC Grids

    Author : Stefanie Heinig; Hans-Peter Nee; Staffan Norrga; Kalle Ilves; Rainer Marquardt; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ac–dc power conversion; energy storage; fault tolerance; HVDC converters; HVDC grid; isolated power supply; modular multilevel converter MMC ; power system faults; silicon carbide; submodules; voltage source converter VSC ; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In order to enable the massive introduction of renewable energies the need for high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grids is anticipated. Large, globally interconnected HVDC networks will likely be the most cost-efficient means to balance electricity demand and available generation. READ MORE

  5. 15. 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).
