Abstract

Parallel inverter is one of the most interesting topology to achieve high power level, overcame current limitation on the switching devices and also to enhance the output current waveforms. However, the circulating current results from the common connection of both AC and DC sides directly can increase the current stresses and conduction losses of the switching devices and reduces inverters efficiency. This paper provides an investment on the three-level Space vector modulation and proposes a new strategy to eliminating the circulating current for paralleled three-level t-type inverters. Results obtained confirmed the performance and the effectiveness of the proposed circulating current control strategy.
