A DC to 3-Phase Series-Resonant Converter with Low Harmonic Distortion

A type of dc to 3-phase series-resonant converter (s.r.converter) or potentially submegawatt industrial applications is presented. The converter provides variable-frequency sine-wave currents, with low harmonic distortion at the output terminals, and with the frequency ranging from -200 through dc to +200 Hz. The converter can transfer power in both forward and reverse power-flow directions to almost any type of load circuit. The methods of control are formulated such that they can be implemented easily with high-speed logical circuits. Test results for a 1-kW demonstration converter are supplied.
