| Abstract | This paper presents a modular multilevel converter (MMC) configuration that utilises energy exchange between sub-modules (SMs) of upper and lower arms, for energy rebalancing. The configuration is applicable to medium-voltage high-power variable-speed drives with any number of motor phases, where the traditional MMC topology experiences challenging shortcomings. With the out-of-phase alternation of the fundamental ripple power in upper and lower arms, the proposed MMC configuration decouples this ripple power by employing dual half-bridge modules linking opposite SMs in upper and lower arms of the same MMC-leg. This counter-balances arm ripple-power through bidirectional power transfer between opposite SMs, resulting in a reduction in the SM capacitance and the MMC system stored energy. The proposed MMC configuration solves the problem of wide SM capacitor voltage fluctuation, especially at low operating frequencies, where the SM capacitor voltage ripple profile is almost constant, independent of the operating frequency. Therefore, the configuration is able to drive multi-megawatt machines from stand-still to the rated speed, at rated torque. The operation of the proposed converter topology is elucidated in detail, and its effectiveness is verified through simulation and experimentation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
