Content of the presentation • Main types of frequency converters • AC-DC converters • DC-DC converters • DC-AC converters • AC-AC converters • Direct frequency converters • Cycloconverters • Indirect frequency converters • Converters with voltage type of the DC link • Converters with current type of the DC link
Power converters • A power semiconductor converter is an electrical device for converting electrical energy.
Cycloconverters • Characteristics: • Creation of output AC voltage without the need of DC link • Output frequency is always lower than the input frequency • Large number of thyristors (36 for 3 phase cycloconverter) • but relatively low switching power losses • Relatively complex control due to large number of switches • Non-sinusoidal consumption of mains current, therefore large • consumption of reactive power and wide spectra of harmonics Wiring diagram of one phase of total three-phase cycloconverter
Cycloconverters Principal block wiring topologies of three-phase cycloconverters Without common node With common node
Cycloconverters • Utilization of cycloconverters: • Low speed three-phase synchronous motors with field windings • High power low speed drives with relatively low demands on dynamics Principal of creation of output voltage and current
Cycloconverters – load waveforms Output frequency: 25Hz Load parameters: R = 7Ω, L = 10mH Control parameters: alpha = 0°
Cycloconverters – load waveforms Output frequency: 25Hz Load parameters: R = 7Ω, L = 10mH Control parameters: alpha = 30°
Cycloconverters – load waveforms Output frequency: 25Hz Load parameters: R = 7Ω, L = 50mH Control parameters: alpha = 0°
