-In this paper, a new grid voltage estimation algorithm without voltage sensors is proposed for the three-phase vienna rectifier. Generally, input voltage sensor circuits increase size and cost of the PWM rectifier In order to reduce the cost and size and in order to increase reliability from the electrical noise, grid voltage estimation scheme without input voltage sensor is highly required. In this paper, the grid voltage estimation algorithm is proposed by a simple MRAS(Model Reference Adaptive System) observer without input voltage sensors. The validity of the proposed method is proven by simulation and experiment on the three-phase vienna rectifier system.
In large vessels, proper water level must be maintained with a balance for right and left equilibrium by absorbing or draining sea water in ballast water tank. However, this ship's ballast-water can be drained marine organisms to local sea area by world trade and this can be a source of ecological disturb. In order to solve these problems, marine organisms must be removed in accordance with the international covenant for the emission of microorganisms. By this reason, the seawater electrolysis rectifier of low-voltage high-current rectifiers with excellent ability for microbial treatment is required. In this paper, PSFB converter will be discussed for the seawater electrolysis rectifier. Furthermore, a new output control method with the power limit operation under the limited maximum voltage condition is proposed for this rectifier. The simulation for the proposed current control method for PSFB Converter is shown using MATLAB/SIMULINK. Finally the usefulness of the proposed control method is presented by the experimental results.
This paper proposes a new method to reduce 120Hz output voltage ripple of LLC converter using resonant voltage controller. This method can reduce the 120Hz output voltage ripple with very high gain at this frequency by the resonant controller with previous PI voltage controller. The reason why the voltage ripple can be reduced is explained by the Bode diagram comparing with the previous PI controller. The simulation with Matlab/Simulink is carried out for this resonant controller and the simulation results show that resonant controller can reduce the 120Hz output voltage ripple. Experiments with DSP controller also carried out and the experimental results also show that the usefulness of the proposed voltage controller.
