Abstract

This study presents a double auxiliary resonant commutated pole (ARCP) inverter topology and modulation strategy. In the proposed inverter, the zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) turn-off of auxiliary switches influenced by parasitic circuit elements from the wiring process can be avoided. It is assured that the auxiliary switches achieve ZVS turn-off reliably. Hence, the reliability of the ARCP inverter is improved, especially in high-power application. According to the equivalent circuits in different operation modes under the proposed modulation strategy, the working principle, soft-switching implementation condition, and parameter design procedure of the proposed inverter are analysed successively in this study. Finally, a 10 kW, 16 kHz double ARCP inverter prototype is built. Experimental results are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed inverter.
