Patent ID: 11728742

Abstract:
A power conversion apparatus capable of supplying a required reactive power while dynamically changing a dead band near 0 reactive current and maintaining a balance of DC voltage is provided. The power conversion apparatus including a three-level converter, a PWM controller for the three-level converter, an input current detector of the three-level converter, a coordinate converter that converts the current into a d-axis and q-axis current feedback, the reactive power control unit that controls a reactive power and outputs an reactive current reference, a d-axis current control unit having a dead band part for setting the d-axis current reference with hysteresis characteristics in the q-axis current feedback, and outputs the d-axis voltage reference, a q-axis current control unit that outputs a q-axis voltage reference based on the q-axis current reference, an inverse coordinate converter that outputs a three-phase AC voltage command based on the d-axis and q-axis voltage reference.
