Abstract

The energy demand has been increasing over the last decade. With the integration of renewable energy sources, grid-connected inverters play a key role in a power system. The main objective of the paper is to discuss a grid-connected inverter with single-phase structure in particular. The design and working principle of a basic grid-connected inverter are presented together with the cycle-by-cycle average (CCA) model. The LCL filter design is also introduced to decrease the current harmonics. To attain unity power factor operation, the closed loop control is essential for the grid-connected inverters. For this reason, a current controller in dq-frame is performed by utilizing MATLAB/Simulink environment. The results indicate that the suggested current controller presents good performance during the variations. This study is anticipated to draw the attention of grid-connected inverter designers and serve as a reference for them.

Abstract

Enerji talebi son on yılda artmaktadır. Yenilenebilir enerji kaynaklarının entegrasyonu ile şebekeye bağlı eviciriler bir güç sisteminde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu makalenin temel amacı, tek fazlı şebeke bağlantılı evirici yapısını detaylı olarak tartışmaktır. Şebekeye bağlı temel bir evirici yapısının tasarımı ve çalışma prensibi, döngü-döngü ortalama (CCA) modeli ile birlikte sunulmaktadır. Mevcut harmonikleri azaltmak için LCL filtre tasarımı da tanıtıldı. Birlik güç faktörü çalışmasını elde etmek için, şebekeye bağlı eviriciler için kapalı çevrim kontrolü gereklidir. Bu nedenle MATLAB/Simulink ortamından yararlanılarak dq eksen'de bir akım kontrolörü gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sonuçlar, önerilen akım kontrolcünün varyasyonlar sırasında iyi performans gösterdiğini bildirmektedir. Bu çalışmanın şebeke bağlantılı evirici tasarımcılarının dikkatini çekmesi ve onlara referans olması beklenmektedir.
