The sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) technique is one of the most popular PWM technique for controlling output and harmonic reduction of inverter. Advancement in power electronics and semiconductor technology have led to use of higher carrier frequency in PWM modulation techniques. In the presented work voltage source inverter is connected to the RL load with LC filter of three phase inverter. Two PWM techniques have been used to operate voltage source inverter are sinusoidal(SPWM) PWM and third harmonic injection(THIPWM) PWM. Both techniques are studied and compared in terms of harmonics distortion.

Aalborg Universitet Improved control strategy for the three-phase grid-connected inverter

An improved control strategy for the three-phase grid-connected inverter with space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) is proposed. When the grid current contains harmonics, the d-and q-axis grid currents will be interacted, and then the waveform quality of the grid current will be poorer. As the reference output voltage cannot directly reflect the change of the reference grid current, the dynamic response of the grid-connected inverter is slow. In order to solve the aforementioned problems, the d-and q-axis grid currents in the decoupled components of the grid current controller can be substituted by the d-and q-axis reference grid currents, respectively. The operating principles of the traditional and proposed control methods are illustrated.

Detailed analysis, simulation and hardware results of a new solar photovoltaic inverter configuration interconnected to the grid are presented. From the simulation and experimental results it is confirmed that the harmonic distortion of the output current waveform of the inverter fed to the grid is within the stipulated limits laid down by the utility companies. To harvest the vast solar energy, it would be desirable if the energy conversion units are simple, reliable, and of low cost and high efficiency. High efficiency can be achieved by the use of all the power generated for the unit and even contribute to the gird while the energy is not used. http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs\_all.jsp?arnumber=1053607&tag=1

Development of Solar PV Based Grid Connected Inverters

The conventional line commutated ac-to-dc converters/ inverters have square-shaped line current which contains higher-order harmonics. Moreover, it requires a costly and bulky dc inductor/ choke. The line current with the high harmonic contents generates EMI and therefore it causes more heating of the core of distribution/ power transformers. Alternatively, PWM based inverters using MOSFET/IGBT switches can be used for the above purpose. However, apart from higher switching losses, the power handling capability and reliability of these devices are quite low in comparison to thyristors/ SCR. A thyristor based forced commutated inverters are not suitable for PWM applications due to the problems of commutation circuits. A pure sinusoidal voltage output or waveform with low harmonic contents is most desirable in the conversion from dc to ac. In the present work, a novel two pulse line commutated inverter is been proposed. It improves the wave shape hence it reduces the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the grid interactive-inverter. Moreover, the performance of the proposed circuitry is far better than the conventional line-commutated inverter. It reduces THD, number of thyristors and dispenses with the bulky dc inductor/ choke. The simulation of the circuit is done using SIMULINK software. Finally, the circuit is realized and experimental results verify the performance of the circuit.
