“…Furthermore, the optimization of inverter efficiency is crucial in their design, especially for applications where energy conservation is of utmost importance. An increase in switching frequencies, while beneficial in reducing the physical size of passive components, concurrently leads to an amplification of switching losses [42]. Considering the change-of-power losses of the inverter depending on the switching frequency, the calculation of the LC filter parameters of the aircraft inverter to be conducted in our study is provided in Equations ( 4)-( 6), respectively.…”

This paper proposes a comprehensive power system designed for the use of a more electric aircraft power distribution system. Instead of traditional Nicad battery solutions as the energy source of the aircraft power system, lithium battery structures, which are a recent and promising solution in the field of aviation power systems, are modeled and analyzed. In this study, a WPWM-based, single-phase, multi-level pure sine wave static aircraft-inverter system is designed and integrated to improve the performance of conventional aircraft power systems. In the designed power system, a boost converter structure is proposed that boosts 28 VDC-to-270 VDC voltage coming from the lithium–ion battery pack and can reach a steady state in 0.032 s. The performance of the modeled WPWM-based aircraft-inverter system, compared to SPWM Bipolar and Unipolar switching techniques commonly used in single-phase inverter designs, reveals a THD reduction of approximately 27% with WPWM, resulting in a THD value below 2% for both load current and load voltage. As a result of the study, a power system that will enable the aircraft avionics, ventilation, and navigation systems to perform better than conventional power systems and comply with aircraft electric-power characteristic standards has been designed and detailed.

This paper addresses the supply of power to the stand-alone load at constant voltage and constant frequency (CVCF), from a variable source distributed generation system. The inherent problem of having a fixed output from a variable input is prominent in all of the distributed generation systems, run by uncertain renewable sources like wind. This paper proposes a topology to maintain output load voltages and frequency during changes in both input torque and load perturbation. The control is designed for both the generator side and load side converters, connected as a back-to-back converter with one dc link capacitor. The voltage across dc link capacitor is maintained at a desired level by power flow control through the generator side voltage source converter (VSC). The proposed three-stage controller technique for the generator side converter is analysed and tested in all operating conditions. The outer most dc link voltage error is passing through the controller is generating the speed reference of the speed controller. Then the inner loop current controller follows the speed controller. The load side VSC is controlled to produce a constant voltage at the output of the load side filter. The stand-alone system has successfully been tested in the simulation environment. It is found to be capable of maintaining input power level to the demand, even with 50% increment in load and 50% increment in input torque. These dynamic responses of the variables are found to be satisfactory throughout the operation.
