Schaltungsanordnung und Verfahren zum Vorladen eines kapazitiven Bauelements Circuit arrangement and method for precharging a capacitive component
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schaltungsanordnung mit einer zwei Anschlüsse aufweisenden Spannungsquelle, die eine elektrische Energiespeichereinrichtung, insbesondere ein Batteriepack, aufweist, einem ersten und einem zweiten Hauptstrompfad, von denen je einer an einen der Anschlüsse der Spannungsquelle angeschlossen ist und von denen zumindest der erste Hauptstrompfad mittels einer darin angeordneten Schalteinrichtung unterbrechbar ist, einem kapazitiven Bauelement, das über die Hauptstrom pfade elektrisch an die Spannungsquelle angeschlossen ist und einem parallel zu der Schalteinrichtung im ersten Hauptstrompfad geschalteten Vorladestrompfad. Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin ein Antriebssystem für ein Fahrzeug mit einer derartigen Schaltungsanordnung und ein Verfahren zum Vorladen eines kapazitiven Bauelements. The invention relates to a circuit arrangement having a two-voltage source having an electrical energy storage device, in particular a battery pack, a first and a second main current path, one of which is connected to one of the terminals of the voltage source and of which at least the first main current path means a switching device arranged therein can be interrupted, a capacitive component, which is connected via the main current paths electrically connected to the voltage source and a parallel to the switching device in the first main current path connected Vorladestrompfad.

Stand der Technik State of the art
Es zeichnet sich ab, dass in Zukunft sowohl bei stationären Anwendungen, wie zum Beispiel bei Windenenergieanlagen (WEA), als auch in Fahrzeugen, zum Beispiel in Elektro- und Hybridfahrzeugen, vermehrt neue elektrische Energiespeichereinrichtungen, insbesondere Batterien beziehungsweise Batteriepacks, als Spannungsquellen zum Einsatz kommen werden, an die sehr hohe Anforderungen bezüglich Zuverlässigkeit gestellt werden. Hintergrund für diese hohen Anforderungen ist, dass ein Ausfall eines Energiespeichers der Einrichtung, also zum Beispiel einer Batterie oder einer Batteriezelle des Batteriepacks, zu einem Ausfall des Gesamtsystems führen kann. So führt zum Beispiel bei einem Elekt- rofahrzeug ein Ausfall der Traktionsbatterie zu einem sogenannten It is becoming apparent that in the future both in stationary applications, such as in wind turbines (WEA), and in vehicles, for example in electric and hybrid vehicles, increasingly new electrical energy storage devices, especially batteries or battery packs are used as voltage sources which are subject to very high reliability requirements. The background for these high requirements is that failure of an energy storage of the device, for example a battery or a battery cell of the battery pack, can lead to failure of the entire system. For example, in the case of an electric vehicle, a failure of the traction battery leads to a so-called
„Liegenbleiber". Der Ausfall kann sogar zu sicherheitsrelevanten Problemen führen. So werden bei Windenergieanlagen Batterien als elektrische Energiespeicher eingesetzt, um bei starkem Wind die Windenergieanlage durch eine Rotor-
blattverstellung vor unzulässigen Betriebszuständen zu schützen. Kommt es zu einem Ausfall, so kann die Windenergieanlage unter Umständen in einen solchen unzulässigen Betriebszustand geraten. Oftmals ist die Spannungsquelle mit ihrer Energiespeichereinrichtung im Zwischenkreis (Gleichspannungszwischenkreis) eines Wechselrichtersystems oder eines Umrichtersystems verschaltet. Dieser Zwischenkreis ist zum konstanten Halten der Gleichspannung und zum Unterdrücken von Spannungsspitzen mit einem kapazitiven Bauelement, dem Zwischenkreiskondensator, versehen. The failure can even lead to safety-relevant problems: In wind turbines, for example, batteries are used as electrical energy stores in order to protect the wind energy plant in the event of strong wind. blade adjustment to protect against improper operating conditions. If there is a failure, the wind turbine can possibly get into such an inadmissible operating state. Often the voltage source is connected to its energy storage device in the intermediate circuit (DC voltage intermediate circuit) of an inverter system or an inverter system. This DC link is provided for the constant holding of the DC voltage and for suppressing voltage peaks with a capacitive component, the DC link capacitor.
Prinzipbedingt muss das kapazitive Bauelement dazu vorgeladen sein. Die Batterie oder das Batteriepack ist im Zwischenkreis parallel zu dem kapazitiven Bauelement geschaltet. Due to the principle, the capacitive component must be preloaded. The battery or the battery pack is connected in the intermediate circuit parallel to the capacitive component.
Würde der elektrische Energiespeicher ohne Vorladen direkt auf das kapazitive Bauelement geschaltet, so würde kurzfristig ein extrem hoher Strom fließen, bis das kapazitive Bauelement geladen ist, da ein Energiespeicher wie zum Beispiel eine Batterie einen geringen Innenwiderstand aufweist und das als Zwischenkreiskondensator dienende kapazitive Bauelement eine hohe elektrische Kapazität besitzt. Dies würde zu einer extremen Alterung dieser Bauteile und einem frü- hen Ausfall führen. Daher ist es erforderlich, das kapazitive Bauelement durch moderate Bestromung vorzuladen. If the electrical energy storage without pre-charging switched directly to the capacitive device, so short an extremely high current would flow until the capacitive element is charged, since an energy storage such as a battery has a low internal resistance and serving as a DC link capacitor capacitive component has electrical capacity. This would lead to extreme aging of these components and early failure. Therefore, it is necessary to pre-charge the capacitive device by moderate energization.
Um die Batterie beziehungsweise das Batteriepack bei einem entsprechenden Fahrzeug vom Fahrzeugbordnetz trennen zu können, sind typischerweise zwei als Leistungsschalter ausgebildete Schalteinrichtungen, meist Schütze, vorgesehen, die in je einem der Hauptstrompfade angeordnet sind. Beim Einschalten der beiden Schütze würde jedoch ein erheblicher Strom in das den Zwischenkreis- Kondensator bildende kapazitive Bauelement fließen. Daher ist ein parallel zu dem Schütz im ersten Hauptstrompfad geschalteter Vorladestrompfad mit einem sogenannten Vorladeschütz und mit einem Schutzwiderstand vorgesehen. In order to separate the battery or the battery pack in a corresponding vehicle from the vehicle electrical system, typically designed as a circuit breaker switching devices, usually contactors, are provided, which are arranged in each one of the main current paths. When the two contactors are switched on, however, a considerable current would flow into the capacitive component forming the intermediate circuit capacitor. Therefore, a precharging current path connected in parallel to the contactor in the first main current path is provided with a so-called precharge contactor and a protective resistor.
Zum Vorladen werden zunächst das Vorladeschütz und das am anderen Pol der Spannungsquelle mit der elektrischen Energiespeichereinrichtung, also im zweiten Hauptstrompfad, angebrachte Hauptschütz eingeschaltet. Hierdurch wird das als Zwischenkreiskondensator wirkende kapazitive Bauelement zunächst mit einem begrenzten Strom aufgeladen. Sobald die Spannung über dem kapazitiven Bauelement hinreichend groß ist, wird das Hauptschütz eingeschaltet.
Nachteilig an dem beschriebenen Verfahren sind die relativ hohen Kosten, der relativ große beanspruchte Bauraum sowie das Gewicht des Vorladeschützes und des den Vorladewiderstand bereitstellenden Bauelements. For pre-charging, the pre-charging contactor and the main contactor mounted on the other pole of the voltage source with the electrical energy storage device, ie in the second main current path, are first switched on. As a result, the capacitive component acting as a DC link capacitor is first charged with a limited current. As soon as the voltage across the capacitive element is sufficiently high, the main contactor is switched on. Disadvantages of the method described are the relatively high costs, the relatively large installation space required and the weight of the pre-charging contactor and the component providing the pre-charging resistor.
Die erfindungsgemäße Schaltungsanordnung mit den in Anspruch 1 genannten Merkmalen, das erfindungsgemäße Antriebssystem mit den in Anspruch 8 genannten Merkmalen und das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren mit den in Anspruch 9 genannten Merkmalen bieten den Vorteil, dass das Aufladen des kapazitiven Bauelements einfach, kostengünstig und platzsparend durchgeführt werden kann. The circuit arrangement according to the invention with the features mentioned in claim 1, the drive system according to the invention with the features mentioned in claim 8 and the method according to the invention with the features mentioned in claim 9 offer the advantage that the charging of the capacitive device can be performed easily, inexpensively and compactly ,
Die erfindungsgemäße Schaltungsanordnung weist einen im Vorladestrompfad verschaltete Abwärtswandlerschaltung auf, über die das kapazitive Bauelement zu dessen Vorladen mit den Anschlüssen der Spannungsquelle elektrisch verbindbar ist. Unter einer Abwärtswandlerschaltung ist hier eine elektrische Schaltung zu verstehen, mit der ein Abwärtswandler (auch als Abwärtsregler bezeichnet) oder Tiefsetzsteller (englisch„step-down Converter" oder„buck The circuit arrangement according to the invention has a down-converter circuit which is connected in the pre-charge current path and via which the capacitive component can be electrically connected to the terminals of the voltage source for its precharging. Under a down-converter circuit is here an electrical circuit to understand, with a down converter (also referred to as a buck regulator) or buck converter (English "step-down converter" or "buck
Converter") realisiert wird. Dabei kann das zu ladende kapazitive Bauelement als Teil dieser Abwärtswandlerschaltung aufgefasst werden. Das kapazitive Bauelement ist insbesondere ein Kondensator. Während des Vorladeprozesses ist die im ersten Hauptstrompfad angeordnete Schalteinrichtung geöffnet. Diese wird nach Beendigung des Vorladeprozesses geschlossen, sodass das kapazitive Bauelement anschließend über den ersten Hauptstrompfad mit dem Anschluss der Spannungsquelle verbunden ist. During the precharging process, the switching device arranged in the first main current path is opened capacitive device is then connected via the first main current path to the terminal of the voltage source.
Die Schaltungsanordnung weist somit einen Zwischenkreis, genauer gesagt einen Gleichspannungszwischenkreis auf, bei dem die Hauptstrompfade die entsprechenden elektrischen Potentiale des Zwischenkreises definieren und in dem die Spannungsquelle mit der elektrischen Energiespeichereinrichtung verschaltet ist. Das kapazitive Bauelement wirkt dabei als Zwischenkreiskondensator. Die Spannungsquelle kann beispielsweise durch ein Spannungsnetz (das Bordspannungsnetz eines Fahrzeugs, etc.) mit der elektrischen Energiespeichereinrichtung realisiert sein. The circuit arrangement thus has a DC link, more precisely a DC voltage intermediate circuit, in which the main current paths define the corresponding electrical potentials of the DC link and in which the voltage source is connected to the electrical energy storage device. The capacitive component acts as a DC link capacitor. The voltage source can be realized for example by a voltage network (the on-board voltage network of a vehicle, etc.) with the electrical energy storage device.
Mit Vorteil ist in einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vorgesehen, dass die Abwärtswandlerschaltung ein induktives Bauelement, ein Schaltelement
und ein lediglich in einer Richtung stromdurchlässiges Bauelement aufweist, wobei das induktive Bauelement auf Seiten des kapazitiven Bauelements und das Schaltelement auf Seiten der Energiespeichereinrichtung im Vorladestrompfad in Serienschaltung verschaltet angeordnet sind. Das lediglich in einer Richtung stromdurchlässige Bauelement ist eine Diode oder ein Halbleiterbauelement, das entsprechende Diodeneigenschaften (beispielsweise ein aktiv eingeschalteter MOSFET) aufweist. Der Verlauf des Vorladeprozesses wird durch wechselseitiges Zu- und Abschalten des Vorladestrompfades mittels des Schaltelements gesteuert und/oder geregelt.

Die Figur 1 zeigt in einer schematischen Darstellung eine als Umrichterschaltungsanordnung ausgebildete Schaltungsanordnung 10. Diese Schaltungsanordnung weist einen Gleichspannungszwischenkreis 12 mit einem als Zwi- schenkreiskondensator wirkenden kapazitiven Bauelement 14 (mit Kapazität C) und einer im Zwischenkreis 12 verschalteten und als Spannungsquelle 16 wir- kenden elektrischen Energiespeichereinrichtung 18 auf. Bei der hier gezeigten schematischen Darstellung der Schaltungsanordnung 10 ist die Spannungsquelle 16 auf die Energiespeichereinrichtung 18 reduziert dargestellt. Die Spannungsquelle 16 kann jedoch beispielsweise auch von einem Spannungsnetz mit diversen Komponenten gebildet sein. Der Zwischenkreis 12 weist einen ersten Haupt- strompfad 20 und einen zweiten Hauptstrompfad 22 auf. Jeder dieser Hauptstrompfade 20, 22 ist an einen elektrischen Anschluss 24, 26 der Spannungsquelle 16 beziehungsweise der als Batteriepack ausgebildeten elektrischen Energiespeichereinrichtung 18 angeschlossen. Weiterhin ist in jedem der beiden Hauptstrompfade 20, 22 je eine als Schütz ausgebildete Schalteinrichtung 28, 30 angeordnet, mittels der der jeweilige Hauptstrompfad 20, 22 unterbrochen oder durchgeschaltet werden kann. An die beiden Hauptstrompfade 20, 22 ist parallel zu dem kapazitiven Bauelement 14 eine als Wechselrichter (Inverter) 32 ausgebildete Umrichtereinrichtung 34 mit ihrem Gleichspannungsausgang (DC) angeschlossen. Am Wechselspannungsausgang (AC) der als Wechselrichter 32 aus- gebildeten Umrichtereinrichtung 34 ist eine motorisch und/oder generatorisch nutzbare elektrische Maschine 36 angeschlossen. Der entsprechende Wechselstromkreis 38 ist ein Drehstromkreis mit drei Strompfaden zwischen der Buck converter circuit (center) and the voltage waveform on a switching element of the buck converter (below) over the precharge time during pre-charging of the capacitive device. 1 shows a schematic representation of a circuit arrangement 10 designed as a converter circuit arrangement. This circuit arrangement has a DC intermediate circuit 12 with a capacitive component 14 acting as intermediate circuit capacitor (with capacitance C) and an electrical circuit connected in the intermediate circuit 12 and acting as voltage source 16 Energy storage device 18 on. In the schematic illustration of the circuit arrangement 10 shown here, the voltage source 16 is shown reduced to the energy storage device 18. However, the voltage source 16 can also be formed, for example, by a voltage network with various components. The intermediate circuit 12 has a first main current path 20 and a second main current path 22. Each of these main current paths 20, 22 is connected to an electrical connection 24, 26 of the voltage source 16 or of the electric energy storage device 18 designed as a battery pack. Furthermore, in each of the two main current paths 20, 22 each designed as a contactor switching device 28, 30 is arranged, by means of which the respective main current path 20, 22 can be interrupted or switched. To the two main current paths 20, 22 parallel to the capacitive component 14 as an inverter (inverter) 32 formed converter 34 is connected with its DC output (DC). At the AC voltage output (AC) of the converter device 34 designed as an inverter 32, a motor and / or regenerative electric machine 36 is connected. The corresponding AC circuit 38 is a three-phase circuit with three current paths between the
Umrichtereinrichtung 34 und der elektrischen Maschine 36. Die Schaltungsanordnung 10 weist weiterhin einen parallel zu der Schalteinrichtung 28 im ersten Hauptstrompfad 20 geschalteten Vorladestrompfad 40 auf, in dem eine Abwärtswandlerschaltung (Tiefsetzstellerschaltung) 42 verschaltet ist, über die das kapazitive Bauelement 14 zu dessen Vorladen ebenfalls an die Spannungsquelle 16 beziehungsweise deren Energiespeichereinrichtung 18 elektrisch anschließbar ist. Die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Abwärtswandlerschaltung 42 weist dabei ein induktives Bauelement 44 (mit der Induktivität L), ein als Transistor T ausgebildetes Schaltelement 46 und ein als Diode D ausgebildetes lediglich
in einer Richtung stromdurchlässiges Bauelement 48 auf. Das induktive Bauelement 44 ist dabei auf Seiten des kapazitiven Bauelements 14 und das Schaltelement 46 ist auf Seiten der Spannungsquelle 16 im Vorladestrompfad 40 angeordnet. Somit sind diese beiden Elemente 44, 46 im Vorladestrompfad 40 in Serie geschaltet. Das lediglich in einer Richtung stromdurchlässige BauelementInverter device 34 and the electric machine 36. The circuit arrangement 10 furthermore has a precharging current path 40 connected in parallel with the switching device 28 in the first main current path 20, in which a down converter circuit (buck converter circuit) 42 is connected, via which the capacitive component 14 also charges for its precharging the voltage source 16 or its energy storage device 18 is electrically connected. The down-converter circuit 42 shown in FIG. 1 in this case has an inductive component 44 (with the inductance L), a switching element 46 in the form of a transistor T and a diode D only in one direction current-permeable device 48. The inductive component 44 is on the side of the capacitive component 14 and the switching element 46 is arranged on the side of the voltage source 16 in the pre-charging current path 40. Thus, these two elements 44, 46 are connected in Vorladestrompfad 40 in series. The only in one direction current-permeable component
48 ist in einem Knotenpunkt 50 des Vorladestrompfades 40 zwischen dem induktive Bauelement 44 und dem Schaltelement 46 sowie im zweiten Hauptstrompfad 22 zwischen dem kapazitiven Bauelement 14 und der Schalteinrichtung 30 verschaltet. 48 is connected in a node 50 of the Vorladestrompfades 40 between the inductive component 44 and the switching element 46 and in the second main current path 22 between the capacitive device 14 and the switching device 30.
Die in der Figur 1 gezeigte Schaltungsanordnung 10 ist die Umrichterschaltungsanordnung eines Antriebssystems für ein Kraftfahrzeug, genauer gesagt für ein Kraftfahrzeug mit Elektro- oder Hybridantrieb. Die in Figur 1 gezeigte elektrische Maschine 36 ist eine rein motorisch oder eine motorisch und generatorisch nutzbare elektrischen Antriebsmaschine dieses Kraftfahrzeugs.The circuit arrangement 10 shown in FIG. 1 is the converter circuit arrangement of a drive system for a motor vehicle, more specifically for a motor vehicle with electric or hybrid drive. The electric machine 36 shown in FIG. 1 is an electric drive machine of this motor vehicle, which can be used purely by motor or motor and generator.
Die Energiespeichereinrichtung 18 ist dabei eine Traktionsbatterie (ein The energy storage device 18 is a traction battery (a
Traktionsakkumulator) des Fahrzeugs und die Spannungsquelle 16 ist das entsprechende (Hochspannungs-)Bordnetz des Fahrzeugs. Das Vorladen des kapazitiven Bauelements 14 erfolgt bei offener Schalteinrichtung 28 des ersten Hauptstrompfades 20 durch wechselseitiges Zu- und Abschalten des Vorladestrompfades 40 mittels des Schaltelements 46. Die Fig. 2 zeigt die Situation bei geschlossenem Schaltelement 46 (T ein: zugeschaltetem Vorladestrompfad 40). Es ergibt sich ein Stromfluss entlang des folgenden Stromkreises 52: Energiespeichereinrichtung 18 - Anschluss 26 - zweiterTraktionsakkumulator) of the vehicle and the voltage source 16 is the corresponding (high voltage) electrical system of the vehicle. The precharging of the capacitive component 14 takes place when the switching device 28 of the first main current path 20 is open by alternately connecting and disconnecting the precharging current path 40 by means of the switching element 46. FIG. 2 shows the situation with the switching element 46 closed (T on: a precharging current path 40 connected). This results in a current flow along the following circuit 52: energy storage device 18 - connection 26 - second
Hauptstrompfad 22 - kapazitives Bauelement 14 - Vorladestrompfad 40 mit induktivem Bauelement 44 und Schaltelement 46 - Abschluss 24 - Energiespeichereinrichtung 18. Dabei fällt über dem kapazitiven Bauelement 14 die Spannung U_C und über dem Schaltelement 46 die Spannung U_T ab und über das induktive Bauelement 44 fließt der Strom l_L. Ein Stromfluss über das lediglich in einer Richtung stromdurchlässige Bauelement 48 parallel zu der Serienschaltung aus dem kapazitiven Bauelement 14 und dem induktiven Bauelement 44 erfolgt nicht, da das Bauelement 48 in dieser Stromrichtung sperrt. Die Fig. 3 zeigt die Situation bei offenem Schaltelement 46 (T aus: abgeschaltetem Vorladestrompfad 40). Es ergibt sich ein Stromfluss entlang des folgenden Stromkreises 54: kapazitives Bauelement 14 - induktives Bauelement 44 - ledig-
lieh in einer Richtung stromdurchlässige Bauelement 48 - und zurück zum kapazitiven Bauelement 14. Ein Stromfluss über das Schaltelement 46 durch den Vor- ladestrompfad 40 erfolgt nicht, da das Schaltelement 46 offen ist (T aus). Main current path 22 - capacitive component 14 - Vorladestrompfad 40 with inductive component 44 and switching element 46 - Termination 24 - energy storage device 18. This drops over the capacitive component 14, the voltage U_C and on the switching element 46, the voltage U_T and the inductive component 44 flows Electricity l_L. A current flow through the device 48, which is only current-permeable in one direction, parallel to the series connection of the capacitive component 14 and the inductive component 44, does not take place since the component 48 blocks in this current direction. FIG. 3 shows the situation when the switching element 46 is open (T off: precharging current path 40 switched off). The result is a current flow along the following circuit 54: capacitive component 14 - inductive component 44 - only borrowed in one direction current-permeable device 48 - and back to the capacitive device 14. A current flow through the switching element 46 through the Vorladestrompfad 40 does not occur because the switching element 46 is open (T off).
Fig. 4 zeigt die auftretende Strom- und Spannungsverläufe beim Aufladevorgang des kapazitiven Bauelements 14. Dabei zeigt Fig. 4 oben den Spannungsverlauf U_C am kapazitiven Bauelement 14, in der Mitte den Stromverlauf l_L an dem induktiven Bauelement 44 und unten den Spannungsverlauf U_T an dem Schaltelement 46 des Abwärtswandlers 40 über der Zeit t beim Vorladen des kapazitiven Bauelements 14. 4 shows the current and voltage curves occurring during the charging process of the capacitive component 14. FIG. 4 shows the voltage curve U_C at the capacitive component 14, in the middle the current characteristic I_L at the inductive component 44 and at the bottom the voltage characteristic U_T at the switching element 46 of the buck converter 40 over time t during pre-charging of the capacitive device 14.
Wird das Schaltelement 46 geschlossen (T ein), so fließt ein steigender Strom durch das kapazitive Bauelement 14, das induktive Bauelement 44 und das Schaltelement 46 (siehe Figuren 2 und 4). Öffnet sich das Schaltelement, dann fließt ein abklingender Strom, aufgrund der in dem induktiven Bauelement 44 gespeicherten Energie, durch das induktive Bauelement 44, das lediglich in einer Richtung stromdurchlässige Bauelement 48 und das kapazitive Bauelement (siehe Figuren 3 und 4). Beide Ströme, sowohl der steigende als auch der abklingende, laden das kapazitive Bauelement 14, sodass die über diesem kapazitiven Bauelement abfallende Spannung steigt. Die Energie wird von der Spannungsquelle 16 entnommen, in diesem Fall von der als Hochvoltbatterie ausgebildeten elektrischen Energiespeichereinrichtung 18. If the switching element 46 is closed (T on), an increasing current flows through the capacitive component 14, the inductive component 44 and the switching element 46 (see FIGS. 2 and 4). If the switching element opens, a decaying current, due to the energy stored in the inductive component 44, flows through the inductive component 44, the component 48 permeable to current only in one direction and the capacitive component (see FIGS. 3 and 4). Both currents, both rising and decaying, charge the capacitive device 14, so that the voltage drop across this capacitive device increases. The energy is taken from the voltage source 16, in this case from the designed as a high-voltage battery electric energy storage device 18th
Es gibt verschiedene Verfahren zur Regelung des Stromes. Ein Beispiel eines Stromregelverfahrens ist eine 2-Punkt Stromregelung. Hierbei wird der Strom durch das induktive Bauelement 44 gemessen und das Schaltelement 46 wird eingeschaltet bis ein maximaler Wert erreicht wird. Dann schaltet das Schaltelement 46 aus bis ein minimaler Wert erreicht ist. Das Schaltelement 46 wird wieder eingeschaltet und der Strom steigt wieder bis sein maximaler Wert erreicht ist. Dann schaltet das Schaltelement 46 wieder aus, der Stromwert sinkt bis der minimale Wert erreicht ist. Dieser Zyklus wiederholt sich solange, bis die gewünschte Spannung am kapazitiven Bauelement 14, also dem Zwischenkreis- kondensator, erreicht ist (siehe Fig. 4).
There are several methods for controlling the current. An example of a current control method is a 2-point current control. Here, the current is measured by the inductive component 44 and the switching element 46 is turned on until a maximum value is reached. Then, the switching element 46 turns off until a minimum value is reached. The switching element 46 is turned on again and the current increases again until its maximum value is reached. Then, the switching element 46 turns off again, the current value decreases until the minimum value is reached. This cycle is repeated until the desired voltage at the capacitive component 14, ie the DC link capacitor, is reached (see FIG. 4).
