A high-power-density converter

Abstract:

This article presents the development and experimental performance of a 10-kW high-power-density three-phase ac–dc–ac converter. The converter consists of a Vienna-type rectifier front end and a two-level voltage source inverter (VSI). To reduce the switching loss and achieve a high operating junction temperature, the SiC JFET and SiC Schottky diode are used. Design considerations for the phase-leg units, gate drivers, integrated input filter—combining electromagnetic interference (EMI) and boost inductor stages—and the system protection are described in full detail. Experiments are carried out under different operating conditions, and the results obtained verify the performance and feasibility of the proposed converter system.
