文摘Based on a neutral point diode clamped eight-switch configuration, a general mathematical model of single phase bi-directional three-level (TL) rectifiers is built by proposing two equivalent TL arms for topology derivation. A series of TL rectifiers are derived by using double TL and multi TL methods, and their characteristics are compared at the same time. A novel seven-switch double TL rectifier is constructed, and its operational principle and control algorithm are illustrated as well. Lastly, its waveform and harmonic spectrum are compared to those of multi TL rectifiers, and the adopted rectifier gains better performance and unit PF.
