Design and implementation of a 7.2kV single stage AC-AC solid state transformer based on current source series resonant converter and 15 kV SiC MOSFET
Abstract
This paper introduces a 97% efficiency medium voltage (MV) Solid State Transformer (SST) based on two-level single stage (TLSS) topology and 15 kV SiC MOSFETs. Series resonant converter (SRC) is implemented as the main stage and is identified as a current source (CS) SRC for the first time. Equivalent resonant frequency of the proposed CS-SRC is analyzed in both time domain and frequency domain. Resonant frequency calculation equation is derived and can be used to accurately design the resonant tank. Zero voltage switching (ZVS) for 15 kV SiC MOSFET in CS-SRC topology under extremely wide input voltage from 0V to 10 kV is analyzed and designed at a medium frequency (MF) of 40 kHz. Partial discharge for the 15 kV SiC MOSFET's parasitic capacitor are explained and the associated turn on loss equations are derived. Magnetizing inductance Lm and deadtime tdead are further optimized based on the trade-off between the turn on loss and conduction loss of the semiconductor devices. A fully functional and compact SST based on the proposed concept is developed and tested with an input of voltage of 7.2 kVac and from 1 kW to 12 kW. The efficiency is higher than 97% under most load conditions.

One major factor for low adoption of SST in traction is that the SST power ratio is relatively poor compared to the traditional line frequency transformer.
“One of the major factors is the power ratio; which is relatively poor compared to the traditional line frequency transformer [138].”

The MMC concept reduces weight and size and offers more features, but requires more power devices, resulting in higher cost.
“MMC concept had been introduced to greatly reduce the weight and size of the system and offer more features; however, the MMC concept required more power devices which resulted in higher cost [138], [139].”

With reference to a 6 MVA machine, the weight-to-power ratio is roughly 1.58 kg/kVA for a 50 Hz system and 1.81 kg/kVA for a 16.67 Hz system.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
