Abstract

A reliable multilevel inverter topology with asymmetrical source configuration to sustain switch open circuit faults is proposed in this paper. Under normal operation, with 3:1 ratio of source configuration, the proposed inverter develops 9levels voltage output. The most common faults in semiconductor switches are open circuit faults and also fault in gate driver is treated as an open circuit fault in switch due to a cease in pulses to the corresponding switch. So, this paper analyzes for open circuit faults in switches. The voltage levels and magnitude are fallen for fault in certain switches and connecting a tap-changing transformer at the output maintains the peak voltage magnitude. But, load scheduling is necessary to ensure continual operation of the inverter. The circuit is operated using Nearest Level Control (NLC) technique. The proposed circuit is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK and is validated using a developed prototype.

非对称多电平逆变器拓扑的可靠运行
本文提出了一种可靠的多电平逆变器拓扑结构,该拓扑具有非对称源配置,可承受开关开路故障。在正常工作情况下,以3:1的电源配置比例,逆变器产生9级电压输出。半导体开关中最常见的故障是开路故障,由于相应开关的脉冲停止,栅极驱动器故障也被视为开关的开路故障。因此,本文对开关的开路故障进行了分析。在某些开关故障时,电压水平和幅度下降,在输出端连接分接变压器保持峰值电压幅度。但是,负载调度是保证逆变器连续运行的必要条件。该电路采用最近电平控制(NLC)技术。在MATLAB/SIMULINK中对所提出的电路进行了仿真,并用开发的样机进行了验证。
