摘要: A power converter includes a converter circuit, an inverter circuit, a clamp circuit, a scrubber circuit, and an element including a resistive component. The converter circuit generates from an AC voltage source a DC voltage with AC components superimposed. The inverter circuit has an input connected with an output of the converter circuit. The inverter circuit is configured to convert the DC voltage into an AC voltage by switching, and output the AC voltage to an inductive load. The clamp circuit includes a first capacitor and a first diode connected in series. The clamp circuit is connected between a positive output and a negative output of the converter circuit. The snubber circuit includes a second capacitor and a second diode connected in series. The snubber circuit is connected between the positive output and the negative output of the converter circuit.

摘要: The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a converter, in particular power converter of a wind power installation. The converter has a plurality of, preferably parallel, converter modules. The method includes the following steps: driving a first converter module, such that the converter module generates a first electrical AC current in a first switch position, driving a second converter module, such that the converter module generates a second electrical AC current in a second switch position, superposing the first electrical AC current and the second electrical AC current to form a total current, detecting the total current of the converter, determining a virtual current depending on the first and second switch positions, and changing the first switch position of the first converter module and/or the second switch position of the second converter module depending on the total current and the virtual current.

摘要: Systems, methods, and computer-readable mediums include detecting and eliminating a three-phase without neutral short-circuit in a load supplied by a power converter. After detecting the short circuit, the current at an output conductor for one of the three-phases is stopped and then resumed after a sufficient amount of current causes a downstream protection device of the faulty load to trip.

摘要: A three-phase power supply system includes three phase branches forming a delta connection. Each of the phase branches includes at least one power conversion cell of at least two stages. The at least one power conversion cell of each of the phase branches is connected in parallel to the at least one power conversion cell of the respective other two phase branches. When one of the phase branches stops operating, the other two phase branches keep operating, and three phase current of the three-phase power supply system can be balanced by regulating active powers and reactive powers of the other two phase branches. Through the invention, when one of the phase branches stops operating, the other two phase branches may keep operating, and three phase current of the three-phase power supply system are balanced.
