Performance Enhancement of Single Phase Voltage Source Inverter used for Solar PV System

Pawan Jatav, R.S. Mandloi

Abstract


This paper presents solar PV system based converter topology. Solar PV modules generate dc voltage at low level and it is required to convert at high voltage level for utilization. Conversion process consists of two stages dc-dc and dc-ac. harmonic minimization is main problem associated with the power inverters and reduction of size of the system. In this paper for minimization of harmonics filter circuit is used and for minimization of size of dc link capacitor voltage control method for dc-dc boost converter is proposed. Proposed controlling scheme minimizes system size, cost, harmonics content at the output and increases efficiency of the conversion system. Simulation results using MATLAB/SIMULINK are also presented.
