Abstract-The switching frequency of medium-voltage high power converters is limited to about 1 kHz due to semiconductor junction temperature constraint. The frequency band between the fundamental and carrier frequency is limited to a little more than one decade and the LCL filter design is usually a challenge to meet grid codes for grid connected applications. Traditional designs focus on the optimization of the filter parameters and different damping circuits. However, this design is very influenced by the modulation technique and produced low order harmonics. Widely used pulse width modulations (PWM), such as phase disposition PWM (PDPWM), produce low order harmonics that constraint the design of the filter. Selective harmonic elimination PWM (SHEPWM) can eliminate theses low order harmonics, enabling a more efficient design of the LCL filter. In this paper, the LCL grid filter of a Multi-Megawatt Medium-Voltage neutral point clamped (NPC) converter for a wind turbine is redesigned using SHEPWM modulation. Experimental results demonstrate that the efficiency of the converter, filter and overall efficiency are increased compared to that obtained with PDPWM.Index Terms-LCL filter, medium-voltage converter, selective harmonic elimination, SHE.
