Analysis and Simulation of Magnetically Coupled Y Shape Impedance Source Inverter

Objectives: Proposed impedance network also has more degrees of freedom for varying its voltage gain, and hence, improving the versatility of the inverter. A switching algorithm is applied to this topology to control the charging time and discharging interval of inverter inductor. Methods/Statistical Analysis: On the basis of the conventional Z-source inverter[ZSI], this paper offer a novel on new type impedance source inverter which only contains one capacitor with tightly coupled three winding transformer, whose obtained voltage gain is presently not matched by existing networks operated at small duty ratio. The inverter can increase the boost factor through adjusting shoot-through duty ratio and varying the number of turns in the three winding transformer. Findings: The proposed impedance network also has more degrees of freedom for varying its voltage gain, and hence, improving the versatility of the inverter. A switching algorithm is applied to this topology to control the charging time and discharging interval of inverter inductor. A simple control strategy is applied to this configuration which is responsible for regulating the transfer power to the maximum amount and also to justify the amount of Total Harmonic Dissortion (THD) in minimum point. The working principle of the proposed Y-Source Inverter has been demonstrated by mathematical analysis in detail. The MATLAB/Simulink Simulation results are conducted to validate the analysis. Application/Improvements: For regulating the transfer power to the maximum amount in PV applications
