Research on a Novel Series-Connected Voltage Fluctuation Generator

Abstract

A novel voltage fluctuation and flicker generating main circuit topology is proposed in this paper, combined with passive and active to realize voltage fluctuation and flicker. The fundamental frequency power is supplied by system source and the other frequency fluctuation power is supplied by active components, so the capacitor of generator is easy to realize larger because of lower active loss. Full-bridge diode rectifier is adopted to maintain the stable DC-bus voltage, the later inverter is controlled by instantaneous value voltage and current double closed-loop to make sure good static and dynamic performance. The inverter output two frequency voltage waveforms, and added to fundamental frequency sinusoidal voltage waveform by transformer so that the typical sinusoidal modulation voltage fluctuation and flicker waveform is obtained. The simulation model is set up on the platform of Matlab/Simulink. Finally, the simulation and experimental results show that the proposed main circuit and control strategy is feasible and efficient.
