11 Calculation of DC-bus capacitors
Alcalá University Department of Electronics Calculation of DC-bus capacitors Harmonics components of the ripple of the DC-bus capacitors: Zero frequency Due to unbalances in the voltage of the two banks. (Depends on modulation technique.) If modulation signal has no offset Equalization resistances Conmutation frequency or high frequency ripple Two-levels converter Unbalance grid voltages or harmonics (2 ωbase) 3 ω mod or low frequency ripple due to iNP Three-levels converter The most restrictive!

12 Calculation of DC-bus capacitors: NPC VSC
Alcalá University Department of Electronics Calculation of DC-bus capacitors: NPC VSC iDC ripple are exactly the same in CP and CNNO unbalance iNP ripple is absorbed by CP and CN unbalance Analysing the VSC working as active rectifier CDC due to iNP Variation of the voltages in the two banks of capacitors of a NPC in function of iNP If iNP triangular ΔvP= ΔvN If iNP sinusoidal Worst case Researching group in Control and Power Electronics Systems EPE-PEMC 2006

13 Calculation of DC-bus capacitors: NPC VSC
Alcalá University Department of Electronics Calculation of DC-bus capacitors: NPC VSC CDC due to iDC Total ripple  ripple iNP + ripple iDC Negligible Researching group in Control and Power Electronics Systems EPE-PEMC 2006

14 Calculation of DC-bus capacitors: back-to-back NPC VSC
Alcalá University Department of Electronics Calculation of DC-bus capacitors: back-to-back NPC VSC iNPR and iNPI have different frequency  capacitors for each frequency iNPR = iNPI have different frequency  iNP = 0  The worst situation  iNP=2iNPI La corriente iNP que circula por los condensadores y que produce el desbalanceo tiene este valor, donde inpr es la corriente debida al rectificador e inpi la debida al inversor. Si estas dos corriente tienen diferentes frecuencias el cálculo de los condensadores se hace para cada una de ellas. Researching group in Control and Power Electronics Systems EPE-PEMC 2006
