Abstract:

Miniaturization, lightweight, and high power density are development trends of vehicle-mounted inverters. The existing vehicle mounted single-phase inverter with DC 110 V input voltage adopts two-stage independent modulation between Boost circuit and full bridge inverter circuit, which has the problems of low efficiency and low power density. To solve these problems, a two-stage cooperative modulation between Boost circuit and full-bridge inverter circuit is studied. According to the relationship between the absolute value of input voltage and output voltage, the Boost circuit and the full-bridge inverter operate with different modes in the proposed method, which optimizes the insulated gate bipolar transistor(IGBT) switching state and diode on-off state to reduce the loss of the inverter and improve the efficiency of the inverter. At the same time, the output harmonics of the full-bridge inverter circuit can be reduced to decrease the size of the filter and improve the power density of the inverter. A 2.75 kV·A prototype is designed and fabricated. Experiments are conducted to verify the correctness and feasibility of the proposed method.
