| Popis: | This paper investigates the open-circuit faults of switching devices in the three-level T-Type inverter and proposes a new tolerant control method. The three-phase current and variation of the neutral-point voltage are detected to determine the fault switch. A carrier-based pulse width modulation is developed to tolerate switch fault by transiting from three-level to two-level switching. This makes the modulation scheme easier to be implemented compared to space vector modulation. For the neutral-point fault, the fault phase is operated by two-level modulation to produce the same rating voltage. On the other hand, the inverter is able to produce balanced voltage with reduced rating by keeping the phase of half-bridge fault to the neutral-point voltage. The neutral-point voltage is also able to be balanced by using two-level modulation since it does not contribute the neutral-point current. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed tolerant control are verified by a laboratory build. |
