Abstract(summary):
This paper presents the application of the hysteresis band current controller (HBCC) technique to the three phase pulse width modulation (PWM) AC chopper used for the purpose of controlling the magnitude of the sinusoidal currents and voltages applied to an AC load. If the HBCC technique used in the inverters is directly employed in the three phase PWM AC chopper, it causes the AC chopper to fail to provide balanced three phase sinusoidal currents for a three phase AC load. In return, this situation leads some unavoidable and serious faults to occur in the hardware of the three phase PWM AC chopper. In respect to this case, the detailed analysis expressing the related faults is presented. Consequently, for the first time, a novel HBCC technique overcoming these faults is proposed for the three phase PWM AC chopper. The proposed method is tested under various operating conditions and a very precise control performance is achieved. Simulation results prove the feasibility and validity of the proposed method.
