Continuous conduction mode power factor correction AC-DC converters are widely employed as the front stage in power supplies with medium or high output power. The second-order reactive input power in single-phase systems causes second-order ripple in the DC-link voltage. The speed of voltage regulation is thus limited by the second-order frequency in seeking to achieve low distorted input current. This study presents a fast second-order voltage estimation method, wherein an integrator is used for the estimation of second-order voltage ripple to obtain rapid voltage feedback without ripple and thereby cope with the limitations imposed by the second-order frequency. This approach greatly expands the bandwidth of the voltage control loop beyond the second-order frequency while reducing the total harmonic distortion associated with the input current. This also makes it possible to reduce the DC capacitance to reduce costs. The authors opted for full digital control using a TI F28335 DSP IC, in conjunction with feedback plus feedforward control to facilitate the design of the current loop. A feedback current corrector is used to reduce distortion associated with the input current over a wide load range. The effectiveness of the proposed control method was confirmed with some simulation and experimental results.
A low-cost programmable high-frequency alternating current (AC) electronic load for battery module diagnosis which possesses energy recycling and portability is proposed. The proposed AC electronic load consists of a micro-controller, a signal capturing circuit, and a resonant circuit, and can be integrated with a human–machine interface (HMI). To diagnose the dynamic characteristics of a lithium battery module, the proposed AC electronic load is served as a test load for providing a wide-range slew-rate loading function. In this study, the extracted energy from the tested battery module during the diagnostic process can be recycled to save energy. In addition, all of the battery module parameters and test conditions can be preset in the HMI, and the battery characteristics and the recycling rate of the electrical energy also can be estimated. Analysis of operation modes and simulations and some experimental results are used to verify the theoretical predictions.
This study aims to implement a single-stage differential boost inverter (SSDBI) applied in a single-stage battery energy storage system (BESS) topology that can supply power from a lower-voltage battery module to an alternating current (AC) load. Compared with the common two-stage topology, which has a two-stage converter and higher-voltage battery module array, the single-stage topology can reduce the number of cells and components and improve the power density. In addition, a modified sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (SPWM) control was proposed to reduce the control complexity of the SSDBI while improving the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the inverter. The modified SPWM control can reduce the duty ratio of the SSDBI and the stress on the components in order to improve the AC voltage output waveform and reduce the THD.
