Modelling a Multilevel LCC Resonant AC-DC Converter for Wide Variations in the Input and the Load
2019
Several applications need a high power, high output voltage ac/dc converter. The structure includes a dc/dc resonant stage, which is fed from a three-phase line. Due to standards, rectified dc input voltage varies largely from 400 to 750 V affecting the adversely overall design and current levels. In fact, losses in the inverter become unbearable if both switching frequency and transferred power are desired beyond a certain level. In those cases, it is necessary to connect several switches in parallel. As an alternative, the new switches can configure a new modular structure instead, adding more flexibility in the control to compensate input voltage variations. As a result, the required circulating current is reduced to a half, with benefits in total power losses. Moreover, the nature of the topology allows a reconfiguration of the resonant net (LCC) for low power, reducing even further the minimum circulating current under those conditions (fluoroscopy, for instance). In this paper, the new multilevel resonant topology is mathematically modeled and proposed for radiography and fluoroscopy. An example illustrates the design procedure for a given application at 100 kW, 50–150 kV.
