The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
In this application, relational terms such as first and second, and the like may be used solely to distinguish one entity or action from another entity or action without necessarily requiring or implying any actual such relationship or order between such entities or actions. Also, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising an … …" does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the element.
In order to avoid an external tube and a clamp tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit from generating an overvoltage when the output state of the inverter circuit is converted, an embodiment of the present application provides a switching modulation method of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit, a specific flow of which is shown in fig. 2, and the method specifically includes the following steps:
s110, when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit has the output state conversion requirement, whether the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs zero level is judged.
If the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs a zero level, step S120 is performed.
Specifically, the output state of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit includes: 1) a first output state that operates as an output state during the positive half cycle, namely: outputting high level and zero level alternately in corresponding proportion; 2) a second output state that operates in the output state during the negative half-cycle, namely: outputting low level and zero level alternately in corresponding proportion; 3) the third output state, also called shutdown state, is the output state when it is shutdown, that is: no more levels are output.
Wherein, the state transition requirements are output, namely: the output state of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is ready to be converted; in another embodiment of the present application, an implementation manner of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit having an output state transition requirement may be: the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit switches the running half cycle of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit, for example, the output state of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is ready to be converted from a first output state to a second output state; the following steps can be also included: the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit converts an output state thereof into a shutdown state, for example, the output state of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is ready to be converted from a first output state into the shutdown state; the method can also comprise the following steps: the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit converts the output state of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit into a fault state.
Optionally, the fault state may be a shutdown state, or may also be an outer tube shutdown state, which is not specifically limited herein, and is within the protection scope of the present application according to specific situations. Compared with the original output state of the inverter circuit, the turn-off state of the outer tube is that only all the outer tubes are turned off.
In practical applications, including but not limited to the above embodiments, the two embodiments are not limited to the above embodiments, and may be within the scope of the present application as the case may be.
In another embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 9a or fig. 9b, when the received switching command K transitions to a high level, it means that the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit has an output state transition requirement, and the switching command K includes a required output state, which will be described below and will not be described herein again.
The above is only one embodiment, and in practical applications, including but not limited to the above embodiments, the embodiments are not specifically limited herein, and may be within the protection scope of the present application depending on the specific situation.
And S120, controlling the corresponding outer tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit to be turned off.
The corresponding outer tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit specifically refers to the outer tube which is conducted at the moment.
In practical application, when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs zero level, two current loops are provided inside the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit, which are respectively:
1) the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs a current loop in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit when the current loop is at a zero level in a first output state, at this time, the on-off state of each switching tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is as shown in fig. 3a or fig. 4a, and the first switching tube T1, the third switching tube T3 and the sixth switching tube T6 are turned on; when the current flows out, the current loop is as shown in fig. 3a, specifically: the middle point on the direct current side of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit → the sixth switching tube T6 → the parasitic diode of the third switching tube T3 → the output end on the alternating current side of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit; when the current flows in, the current loop is as shown in fig. 4a, specifically: the output end of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit on the ac side → the third switching tube T3 → the parasitic diode of the sixth switching tube T6 → the midpoint of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit on the dc side.
2) The ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs a current loop at the zero level in a second output state, and at the moment, the second switch tube T2, the fourth switch tube T4 and the fifth switch tube T5 are conducted; the current loop is symmetrical to the current loop and can be derived from the current loop, and details are not repeated here.
Therefore, when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs a zero level in the first output state, the corresponding outer tube is the first switch tube T1, and the control signal received by each switch tube is shown as the time T2 in fig. 9a or fig. 9 b; when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs a zero level in the second output state, the corresponding outer tube in step S120 is the fourth switching tube T4.
Taking fig. 3a or fig. 4a as an example, it can be seen that no path is formed between the first switch transistor T1 and the current path in the figure, that is: no current flows through the first switch tube T1, so that the first switch tube T1 can be turned off at zero current at this time, and after the first switch tube T1 is turned off, the on-off state of each switch tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is shown in fig. 3b or fig. 4 b; it is inferred that when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs a zero level in the first output state, no path is formed between the fourth switching tube T4 and the corresponding current path, that is: no current flows through the fourth switching transistor T4, so that the fourth switching transistor T4 may be turned off at this time with zero current.
Therefore, when the inverter circuit has the output state conversion requirement, after the inverter circuit outputs zero level, the corresponding outer tube in the inverter circuit is controlled to be turned off, and the zero current turning-off of the outer tube can be realized.
And S130, after a double follow current loop is constructed in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit, controlling a corresponding clamping tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit to be turned off by taking the aim of controlling the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit to be converted into a required output state.
Wherein, the freewheel circuit, namely: the current loop in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is used for outputting zero level; therefore, a dual-freewheeling circuit is constructed, i.e., the two current circuits are conducted simultaneously.
Taking fig. 3b or fig. 4b as an example, a dual-freewheel loop is constructed, that is: the second switch tube T2 and the fifth switch tube T5 are controlled to be turned on, and at this time, the control signals received by the switch tubes are as shown at the time T3 in fig. 9a or fig. 9 b; when current flows out, the current loop is shown in fig. 3c, and when current flows in, the current loop is shown in fig. 4 c.
It should be noted that, when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs the zero level in the second output state, the specific process of constructing the dual continuous flow loop can be deduced from the above description, and is not described herein again.
In addition, the demand output state, namely: and the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit carries out output state after output state conversion.
In another embodiment of the present application, when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit switches its own operation half-cycle, the required output state of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is an output state when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is in another operation half-cycle except the current operation half-cycle; wherein, the current operation half cycle includes: a positive half cycle or a negative half cycle.
Taking fig. 3c or fig. 4c as an example, if the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs a zero level in the first output state, the required output state is the second output state; therefore, the aim of controlling the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit to be converted into a required output state is fulfilled, and the corresponding clamp tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is controlled to be turned off, namely: the sixth switch tube T6 is controlled to be turned off, and the control signals received by the switch tubes are as shown at time T4 in fig. 9 a; after the completion, the on-off state of each switching tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is shown in fig. 5a or fig. 6 a.
It should be noted that, when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs the zero level in the second output state, the specific process of controlling the switching off of the corresponding clamp tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is deduced from the above description with the goal of controlling the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit to be converted into the required output state, and details thereof are not repeated herein.
In another embodiment of the present application, when the ANPC-type three-level inverter circuit converts its output state to the power-off state, the required output state of the ANPC-type three-level inverter circuit is the power-off state.
Taking fig. 3c or fig. 4c as an example, the ANPC three-level inverter circuit outputs a zero level in the first output state, and the required output state is an off state, so that the objective of controlling the ANPC three-level inverter circuit to switch to the required output state is to control the corresponding clamp in the ANPC three-level inverter circuit to be turned off, that is: the fifth switch tube T5 and the sixth switch tube T6 are both controlled to be turned off, and the control signals received by the switch tubes at this time are as shown at the time T4 in fig. 9 b; after the completion, the on-off state of each switching tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is shown in fig. 7a or fig. 8 a.
It should be noted that, when the ANPC-type three-level inverter circuit outputs the zero level in the second output state, the specific process of controlling the turn-off of the corresponding clamp tube in the ANPC-type three-level inverter circuit is the same as that described above with the goal of controlling the ANPC-type three-level inverter circuit to be converted into the required output state, and details are not repeated here.
As can be seen from the above, after the dual freewheeling circuit is constructed in the ANPC-type three-level inverter circuit, the sixth switching tube T6 is turned off, or the fifth switching tube T5 and the sixth switching tube T6 are turned off, the output level of the ANPC-type three-level inverter circuit is not changed, and is still at a zero level, that is: after a double follow current loop is constructed in the inverter circuit, any clamping tube in the inverter circuit is turned off, and the output level of the inverter circuit cannot be changed.
Therefore, after the double follow current loop is constructed in the inverter circuit, the corresponding clamping tube is controlled to be turned off, and the zero-voltage turn-off of the clamping tube can be realized.
And S140, controlling the switching-off or switching-on of the corresponding inner tube and the corresponding outer tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit by taking the control of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit to be converted into a required output state as a target.
In step S130, the on-off of the corresponding clamp tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit has been adjusted to be the same as the on-off of the corresponding clamp tube in the demand output state, so in step S140, the on-off of the corresponding outer tube and the corresponding inner tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is adjusted to be the same as the demand output state, that is, the output state of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit can be converted into the demand output state; the detailed process will be described in detail below, and will not be described herein.
To sum up, the switching modulation method of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit respectively realizes zero current turn-off of the outer tube of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit and zero voltage turn-off of the clamp tube of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit, so that stress borne by the outer tube of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit and the clamp tube of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit in the output state conversion process can be reduced, overvoltage can be avoided in the output state conversion process of the outer tube of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit and the clamp tube of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit, the outer tube and the clamp tube of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit can select a switching tube with lower withstand voltage, and the cost of the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit can be reduced.
In another embodiment of the present application, when the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit switches its own half-cycle, a specific implementation manner of step S140 is as follows: and simultaneously controlling the corresponding inner tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit to be switched off and the corresponding outer tube to be switched on.
Taking fig. 5a and fig. 6a as an example, at this time, the required output state of the ANPC three-level inverter circuit is the second output state, and assuming that after the conversion, the ANPC three-level inverter circuit outputs the zero level in the second output state, the corresponding inner tube and the corresponding outer tube in the ANPC three-level inverter circuit are controlled to be conducted at the same time, that is: simultaneously, the third switch tube T3 is controlled to be turned off and the fourth switch tube T4 is controlled to be turned on, and at this time, the control signal received by each switch tube is as shown at the time T5 in fig. 9 a; after the completion, the on-off state of each switching tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is shown in fig. 5b or fig. 6 b.
Assuming that after the conversion, the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit outputs a low level in the second output state, and simultaneously controls the conduction of the corresponding inner tube and the corresponding outer tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit, that is: simultaneously controlling the second switching tube T2 and the third switching tube T3 to be switched off and the fourth switching tube T4 to be switched on; after the completion, the on-off state of each switching tube in the ANPC type three-level inverter circuit is shown in fig. 5c or fig. 6 c.
