1.Introduction
Recently,renewableenergyresourceshavebeenbecomingpopularduetothedecreaseoffuelsourcesandtheirdamagestotheenvironment.Asaresultofthenegativeeffectsofglobalwarmingandclimatechanges,theinterestofrenewableresourceshasbeenincreasedgradually.
Solarenergyisoneofthesealternativeenergyresources.Itisconvertedtotheelectricalenergybyphotovoltaic(PV)arrays.PVarraysdonotgenerateanytoxicorharmfulsubstancesthatpollutetheenvironment([Kangetal.,2005a] and [Kangetal.,2005b]).Anotherconsiderablefeatureofthemistherequirementoflowmaintenance.Dependingonthedevelopmentinphotovoltaictechnologies,theefficiencyofthePVarrayshasbeenimproved.Therefore,studiesonPVsystemshaveincreasedgradually.
PVsystemsareoccasionallyoperatedinstand-alonemodeandtheyfeedfixedloadsbystand-alonePVinverters([Myrzik,2001],[Kangetal.,2005a],[Kangetal.,2005b],[Daheretal.,2008],[Lalounietal.,2009] and [SaravanaIlangoetal.,2010]).PVsystemsarealsointerconnectedtothegrid.InterconnectingaPVsystemtothegridhasbeenthepopulardesigntrendandgrid-connectiontypesofPVinvertershavebeenproposed([Calaisetal.,1999],[Myrzik,2001],[Kuoetal.,2001],[Alonsoetal.,2003],[Yuetal.,2005],[Wuetal.,2005],[Patcharaprakitietal.,2005],[Leeetal.,2008],[Hassaineetal.,2009] and [Rahimetal.,2010]).ThereforevariouspowerelectronicstechnologiesareimprovedtoconvertthedctoacpowerforPVapplications.
Inaddition,itisimportanttooperatePVenergyconversionsystemsnearthemaximumpowerpointtoincreasetheoutputefficiencyofPVarrays([Kuoetal.,2001],[Alonsoetal.,2003],[Yuvarajanetal.,2004],[Yuetal.,2005],[Patcharaprakitietal.,2005] and [Leeetal.,2008]).Thus,powerelectronicsinvertersarerequiredformaximumpowerpointtracking(MPPT)algorithm,whichprovidesmaximumPVpower.TheyarealsoneededfortransferringthePVpowertoaloadortothegrid.
Multilevelinvertersaresuitablechoicesforrealizingthisobjective.Variousmultilevelinvertertopologieshavebeenintroducedandstudiedintheliterature.Themostconsiderableofthesetypesarethediodeclamped,theflyingcapacitor,thecascadedH-Bridge,themagneticcoupledandthefullbridgewithcascadedtransformersinverters.Theremarkablefeatureoftheseinvertersisgeneratinglessharmoniccomponentsonbothoutputvoltageandloadcurrent.Byincreasingthenumberofoutputlevels,thequalityoftheoutputvoltageandloadcurrentisincreasedstepbystep([Calaisetal.,1999],[Rodriguezetal.,2002],[Kangetal.,2005a],[Kangetal.,2005b],[Daheretal.,2008],[Rahimetal.,2010] and [Beseretal.,2010]).Duetotheproductionoflessharmoniccomponents,thePVpoweristransferredtotheloadortothegridinahigh-qualityformbymultilevelinverterstructures.
Relatedtothesedevelopments,thisstudypresentsaPVassistedmultilevelinvertersystemfortheconversionofPVpowertotheelectricalpower.TheproposedstructureoftheinvertersystemisquitesuitablefortheuseofPVarrays.Owingtotheuseofamultilevelinverterstructure,moresinusoidalshapedoutputvoltagewavesareobtained.Therefore,theTHDoftheoutputvoltageisconsiderablyreduced.PlacementofthePVarraysinthesystemisthesignificantpointofthestudybecauseofloadingthearraysinthesamecondition.Toaccomplishthis,asimulationstudyisperformedandthenumberandconnectiontypesofthePVarraysinthesystemaredetermined.AccordingtotheorderofthePVarraysaconfigurationisformedforthePVassistedinvertersystem.Thesystemissimulatedwhileoperatingsynchronousandtransferringvariouspowervalueshavingdifferentcharacteristicstothegrid.Thevalidityoftheproposedsystemisalsoverifiedthroughanexperimentalstudy.ThemeasuredTHDvaluesoftheoutputvoltageandcurrentarequitelow.ThesystemprovidesgoodperformanceasaPVenergyconversionsystem.
