Abstract:

The Matrix Converter is a forced commutated converter which uses an array of controlled bi-directional switches as the main power elements to create a variable output voltage system with unrestricted frequency. It eliminates the need of dc link circuit and does not need any large energy storage elements. The Matrix Converter is an attractive topology of power converter for power supply applications where factors such as the absence of electrolytic capacitors, the potentiality of increasing power density, reducing size and weight and good input power quality are fundamental. The main feature of this device is to convert the magnitude as well as the frequency of the input (fixed frequency) into a desired magnitude (variable frequency). Single Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC) consists of four bi-directional switches, which are required to be commutated in the right way and sequence in order to minimize the losses and produce the desired output with a high quality input and output waveforms. In this project, the modulation strategies are developed for single phase AC-AC Matrix Converters for multiple induction heating system. The modular power electronics hardware provides a fast method to reconfigure the power converter topology. The converter with the proposed system will be modeled on MATLAB/Simulink platform.
