Zusammenfassung
The conventional line commutated ac-to-dc
converters/ inverters have square-shaped line current which
contains higher-order harmonics. Moreover, it requires a
costly and bulky dc inductor or choke. The line current with
the high harmonic contents generates EMI and therefore it
causes more heating of the core of distribution or power
transformers. Alternatively, PWM based inverters using
MOSFET/IGBT switches can be used for the above purpose.
However, apart from higher switching losses, the power
handling capability and reliability of these devices are quite
low in comparison to thyristors/ SCR. A thyristor based forced
commutated inverters are not suitable for PWM applications
due to the problems of commutation circuits. A pure sinusoidal
voltage output or waveform with low harmonic contents is
most desirable in the conversion from dc to ac. In the present
work, a novel two pulse line commutated inverter is been
proposed with control signal generated from PIC 16F 877A. It
improves the wave shape hence it reduces the total harmonic
distortion (THD) of the grid interactive-inverter. The
simulation of the circuit is done using SIMULINK. Moreover,
the performance of the proposed circuitry is far better than
the conventional line-commutated inverter. It reduces THD,
number of thyristors and dispenses with the bulky dc inductor/
choke. A prototype model is developed for discontinuous line
current mode. The results are also compared with the
simulation results in SIMULINK/ MATLAB.
