文摘In this paper the operation of a three level H-bridge converter as well as its parallel operations is analyzed and simulated on the computer. Based on the simulation results the operating behavior between (a) a three level H-bridge neutral point clamped convener, (b) a three level back-to-back H-bridge neutral point clamped convener, (c) two three level H-bridge neutral point clamped converters parallel connected is being compared. From the simulation results it is obvious that in the first two cases the ripples, the distortion in primary and secondary winding currents, and the power factor are quite satisfactory and almost identical to each other. In the third case as compared with the first two, it is observed that current harmonics with higher amplitude appear in the primary winding of the transformer.
