“…This paper extends the previous one [8], and in particular includes the discussion of a FC multistage multilevel structure, start-up, steady-state and shortcircuiting responses, the modification of a PD PWM technique aimed at load leveling among back-to-back converters feeding DC capacitors of the NPC VSI.…”

“…Consideration of the equipment combined operation is very important in terms of cost reduction. The optimization of an electric unit structure requires appropriate information concerning performance characteristics of the unit devices [3], [9], [8], [10] in start-up, steady-state and short-circuiting modes of operation. No less important item of consideration concerns the proper load distribution among the unit devices.…”

“…A contemporary solution can use traditional two-level topology [2], three-level and multilevel topologies [15], cascaded converters [10], [19] matrix, multilevelmultistage topologies [8], and other types of FC [12], [16]. The choice of the FC type is influenced by the power and voltage levels of the DFIM rotor circuit, features of different transient processes in the system and other factors.…”

“…In DFIMdriven PSP systems other start-up procedures are possible: via FC, feeding the rotor circuit, under shortcircuiting the stator windings, and through the same FC connected to the stator winding under short-circuiting the rotor windings [13], etc. Starting processes in the DFIM with CSI-based SD on the stator side and PWM VSI on the rotor side are presented in [8] and [10]. In order to enlarge the database for designing the PSP systems, the paper discusses a direct start-up of the DFIM with current-restrictive resistors which are disconnected from the rotor at a final stage of the start when synchronizing the VSI voltages with the rotor ones becomes possible.…”

the paper presents the modeling and simulation study of a variable speed pump-storage power plant composed of a reversible turbine, a doubly fed induction machine (DFIM), and a multistage-multilevel frequency converter. The DFIM rotor circuit is fed by a 5-level NPC VSI. The inverter DC-link capacitor voltages are kept in balance by means of four multistage PWM rectifiers. The paper considers start-up responses and performance characteristics of the drive system along with its behavior under the stator short-circuit fault conditions. An emphasis is placed upon modifying the PD PWM modulation waveforms in order to level RMS values of currents flowing in PWM rectifiers and related secondary windings of a step-down transformer.

The efficient utilization of energy sources seems to be one of the most challenging problems for designers and scientists alike. This challenge particularly applies to power electronics, where the increasing value of energy density leads to demands for optimization processes and better exploitation (and distribution) of available power sources. As a result, the implementation of frequency-controlled systems is more often in the spotlight. The systems with doubly fed induction machines and a frequency converter in the rotor circuit are typical representatives of these demands. In a wide spectrum of power electronic systems, frequency converters are often used that have a constant current, a diode rectifier, and a thyristor inverter. This article provides a novel approach to modeling methodology, and presents a unique comparison of four different frequency converter schemes that are connected to a doubly fed induction machine. This article presents the modeling methodology itself, as well as the results based on an asynchronous generator motor fed by different frequency converters, a spectral analysis of the output voltage of the used frequency converters, and a comparison of the different technologies. Based on the above, this paper recommends the use of a multistage-multilevel frequency converter scheme.
