Definitions
- the present invention relates to a power converter that compensates for voltage fluctuations or power outages of an AC power supply and supplies a stable voltage to a load.
- FIG. 6 shows an alternating current using a semiconductor switching element (hereinafter referred to as a bidirectional switching element) that compensates for the voltage drop of the alternating current power supply and supplies a constant voltage to the load and can control the on / off of the bidirectional current.
- a bidirectional switching element a semiconductor switching element that compensates for the voltage drop of the alternating current power supply and supplies a constant voltage to the load and can control the on / off of the bidirectional current.
- a step-up chopper circuit Patent Document 1, FIG. 17 is shown.
- the AC boost chopper circuit is connected in parallel to a first series circuit in which a first reactor 4 and a first bidirectional switching element 6 are connected in series, and the first bidirectional switching element 6.
- Two bidirectional switching elements 5 and a capacitor 3 are connected in series.
- the load voltage Vout (the voltage across the capacitor 3) is maintained by alternately turning on and off the two bidirectional switching elements 5 and 6 even when the voltage Vin of the AC power supply 1 decreases. Can do.
- the load voltage Vout is determined by the on / off ratio of the two bidirectional switching elements 5 and 6.
- FIG. 7 is a configuration example of a bidirectional switching element used in an AC boost chopper.
- FIG. 7A shows two reverse-blocking IGBTs connected in reverse parallel with a reverse polarity voltage having a breakdown voltage equivalent to the forward polarity.
- FIG. 7B shows a circuit in which a reverse breakdown voltage is provided by connecting a diode in series to a normal IGBT having no reverse breakdown voltage and further connected in reverse parallel.
- a diode is connected in parallel to the IGBT, and a reverse conducting element is further connected in reverse series.
- FIG. 7D shows the same connection as FIG. 7C, but uses a MOSFET as the switching element.
- MOSFET differs from IGBT in that it has a resistance characteristic in which current and forward voltage drop are proportional. Therefore, theoretically, the forward voltage drop can be brought close to zero by increasing the parallel number. Further, since the MOSFET conducts in the reverse direction when a voltage is applied to the gate, the forward voltage drop can be made smaller than that of the parallel diode depending on conditions. In particular, MOSFETs using SiC (silicon carbide) are being put into practical use in recent years, and a significant forward voltage drop is expected.
- SiC silicon carbide
- the AC boost chopper circuit has the following two problems.
- the first problem is that there is a limit to the amount of voltage compensation for the voltage drop of the AC power supply.
- the input current Iin flows as much as the step-up ratio of the load current Iout. For example, if the power supply voltage Vin drops to [1/5] of the rated value, the input current Iin instantaneously becomes five times the rated value. For this reason, the current tolerance of the semiconductor switching element used for the bidirectional switching element is required to be five times. The reactor must not be saturated even when the current flows. For this reason, as the voltage range to be compensated becomes wider, the semiconductor switching element and the reactor become larger and the cost also increases. For this reason, 50% to 100% of the power supply voltage is practically used as the compensation range, and 50% or less is out of compensation.
- the second problem is that a surge voltage is generated when the bidirectional switching element is cut off, and in the worst case, the elements constituting the load and the AC boost chopper circuit are destroyed.
- the generation factors of the surge voltage are due to the current interruption of the switching element during normal operation, and due to the all-off operation of the switching element during device protection, and the latter is particularly problematic.
- the former is well known, and generates a high dI / dt (dI is the amount of current change and dt is time) when the switching element is turned off. ) Surge voltage is generated.
- the bidirectional switching elements 5 and 6 in the event of an accident such as a load short circuit during the boosting operation, the bidirectional switching elements 5 and 6 must be stopped to ensure safety. However, when the bidirectional switching elements 5 and 6 are simultaneously turned off during the conversion operation, there is no path for consuming the energy stored in the reactor 4, so that a surge voltage is generated in the bidirectional switching element 5 or 6.
- the wiring inductance can be improved to some extent, for example, by shortening the wiring between the switching elements.
- the inductance of the latter reactor 4 is determined by the circuit conditions, and the wiring inductance (several tens of nH to several hundreds of nH) is determined. Very large and surge voltage is high.

Further, since the power for voltage compensation passes through the two inverters, another problem arises that the loss of the power converter becomes larger than that of the AC boost chopper.
