Multilevel Inverter Topology with Symmetrical and Asymmetrical Sources for Distributed Energy Resources
TLDR
A 1-φ multi-level inverter configuration with the decreased number of switching components is recommended for distributed energy resource applications that has low power loss and reliable operation in case of switch failure.Abstract:
In this research paper, a 1-φ multi-level inverter configuration with the decreased number of switching components is recommended for distributed energy resource applications. The planned inverter able to generate seven and nine output voltage levels with symmetrical and asymmetrical source configuration. Due to the decreased number of semiconductor switches the topology has low power loss compared to conventional 7-level inverter. The developed topology has reliable operation in case of switch failure. The developed topology is simulated with the assistance of Matlab/Simulink software.read more
