    About this ebook

    Multilevel Inverters: Conventional and Emerging Topologies and Their Control is written with two primary objectives: (a) explanation of fundamentals of multilevel inverters (MLIs) with reference to the general philosophy of power electronics; and (b) enabling the reader to systematically analyze a given topology with the possibility of contributing towards the ongoing evolution of topologies. The authors also present an updated status of current research in the field of MLIs with an emphasis on the evolution of newer topologies. In addition, the work includes a universal control scheme, with which any given topology can be modulated. Extensive qualitative and quantitative evaluations of emerging topologies give researchers and industry professionals suitable solutions for specific applications with a systematic presentation of software-based modeling and simulation, and an exploration of key issues.

    Topics covered also include power distribution among sources, voltage balancing, optimization switching frequency and asymmetric source configuration. This valuable reference further provides tools to model and simulate conventional and emerging topologies using MATLAB®/Simulink® and discusses execution of experimental set-up using popular interfacing tools.

    The book includes a Foreword by Dr. Frede Blaabjerg, Fellow IEEE, Professor and VILLUM Investigator, Aalborg University, Denmark.

    • Includes a universal control scheme to help the reader learn the control of existing topologies and those which can be proposed in the future
    • Presents three new topologies. Systematic development of these topologies and subsequent simulation and experimental studies exemplify an approach to the development of newer topologies and verification of their working and experimental verification.
    • Contains a systematic and step-by-step approach to modelling and simulating various topologies designed to effectively employ low-power applications

    Krishna Kumar Gupta

    Krishna Kumar Gupta is an avid teacher, researcher, consultant and an author. Dr. Gupta is currently serving as an Associate Professor, lecturing on Power Electronics, Control Systems and Circuit Theory. In the year 2015, Dr. Gupta was conferred upon with Young Scientist Award by the Government of Madhya Pradesh, India for his research on inverters. In 2016, he has been awarded by the Confederation of Indian Industries (CII) for his contribution in teaching. Before taking up research on inverters, Dr. Gupta had varying tenures in Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and National Institute of Technology (NIT) Raipur, India. Post PhD, he was offered a research position at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore but he was more keen to work on development of technologies for PV based power generation for rural India. Dr. Gupta is a Member, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and has authored several technical papers. He obtained his B.Tech., M.Tech. and Ph.D. degrees from Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology (MANIT), Bhopal, India. He also serves as an active reviewer for many journals of international repute.

    Basics of Inverters

    Abstract

    In this chapter, fundamental concepts related to power electronics and inverters are discussed. Popular terminology is defined so that understanding multilevel inverters becomes much easier.

    1.1 Introduction

    While the demand for electrical energy continues to grow throughout the world, it is estimated that 100% of electrical energy will flow through power electronics, especially in developed countries [1]. It is anticipated that the role of power electronics in this era will be as crucial as that of computers and communication technologies. Power electronics has changed the face of electrical engineering. Applications of power electronics include regulated power supplies, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), electrochemical processes, heating and lighting control, welding, reactive power compensation, flexible AC transmission systems, active filters, energy storage, motor drives, and so on. Of all power electronics converters, DC to AC converters (i.e. inverters) are most widely employed in the modern set-up of electric power generation, transmission, distribution, utilization, and
