Technical FAQs 4

How does a DC capacitor reduce voltage ripple?

Both the DC capacitor and the active power compensation circuit effectively reduce the ripple in the output voltage. The reference value of the output voltage is 200 V, and the voltage ripple is reduced from the original ± 50 V to ± 5 V, which is reduced by 90%.

Why do two-stage photovoltaic inverters have a second-harmonic ripple?

Learn more. Two-stage single-phase photovoltaic inverters exhibit a second-harmonic ripple at the dc-link voltage, which can cause variations in the terminal voltage of the photovoltaic array, reducing the efficiency of the maximum power point tracking (MPPT).

How does voltage ripple affect a DC link?

Voltage ripple is introduced to the DC link when a single-phase rectifier operates, which affects the energy balance of both the DC and AC sides. Accurate acquisition and fast, precise tracking of the decoupling capacitor voltage and decoupling inductor current reference values are challenges in the design of active power decoupling controllers.

Can a boost converter reduce leakage current in a single-phase inverter?

This paper aims to investigate the suppression of the leakage current of PV single-phase inverters and the double-frequency ripple, the circuit proposed in this paper substitutes a bridge arm of the conventional PV grid-connected inverter with a Boost converter, which can eliminate the leakage current directly.
