The principle achievement of this contribution is to develop and to describe a rapid DC component elimination strategy for AC currents in the frequency converter, simply by selecting transient period. To avoid DC component on the line current, it’s known t ...
This article introduces the energetic macroscopic representation (EMR) as approach for the dynamic nonlinear modeling of a reciprocating air compressor. EMR has been introduced recently for research development in complex electromechanical systems and is b ...

This paper deals with a power management mechanism using Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) with integrated energy storage elements, the typical use of which could be a grid-interface for a photovoltaic park or a charging park for electric vehicles. In com ...
An important parameter for the economy of a photovoltaic plant is the coefficient of generated power to needed surface. An analysis of this relationship is done for different solar plants and losses generated by the transmission within such a plant are cal ...
Today, there is a long-term trend towards bi-directional and flexible charger functions for not only drawing current from the grid but also feeding excess energy back into it. The Configurable Modular Multilevel Converter (CMMC) offers a large flexibility ...
A step-up DC-DC converter (non-isolated) based on the current diverter principle is shown. This converter is intended for renewable energy sources or distribution networks for elevating the voltage from LV to MV levels. The relationship of stage number, du ...
This paper proposes a power converter architecture for the implementation of an ultra-fast charging station for electric vehicles (EVs). The versatile converter topology is based on the concept of the Power Electronic Transformer (PET). For the direct tran ...

A new five-level photovoltaic Inverter is presented, implemented by associating a Multistage Stacked Boost Architecture (MSBA) with a 5-level NPC inverter. Ahead of the MSBA conversion stage, a conventional boost converter allows the operation of the PV ce ...
This paper deals with a compensation technique for non-linear behaviour of single phase modular multi-level power converter, feeding electric vehicle fast charging station with split integrated energy storage system. The proposed method calculates the volt ...
