摘要
This paper explores the, fundamental limitations of neutral-point voltage balancing problem for different loading conditions of three-level voltage source inverters. A new model in DQ coordinate frame utilizing current switching functions is developed as a means to investigate theoretical limitations and to offer a more intuitive insight into the problem. The low-frequency ripple of the neutral point caused by certain loading conditions is reported and quantified.
