The structures of systems with high-voltage cascade frequency converters containing multi-winding transformers and low-voltage low-power converters connected in series at each output phase of the load are considered. Low-voltage blocks contain three-phase diode or active rectifiers, DC capacitor filters, single-phase stand-alone voltage inverters and block disconnecting devices in partial modes (in case of failure when part of the blocks are disconnected). The possibilities of operation of cascade converters are determined, equations for correcting tasks to units in partial modes are given, tables of correction of tasks with estimates of achievable load characteristics are proposed. The results of experiments on the model of a powerful installation with a cascade frequency converter are presented, confirming the possibility of ensuring the symmetry of the load currents when disconnecting part of the blocks and the asymmetry of the circuit.

Charge storage is an important research topic in smart grid and distributed generation system, pumped storage as one of the most popular large-scale charge storage methods has attracted increasing attention. However, the motor generator of the pumped charge station has high input voltage and heavy load, so in order to get grid connected safely, being soft started by a high voltage converter is necessary. In the view of the existing high voltage high power converters, only the voltage source inverter Multi-stage Series-connection high voltage frequency converters are suitable for this application, and this paper gives analysis of such converters. Based on Carrier Wave Phase-Shifted modulation, this paper proposes a multi-stage Series-connection high voltage frequency converter with balanced output power of the step-down transformer’s secondary windings, in which a winding burdens three symmetry three-phase to single-phase MC outputs, and the same phase outputs of the MC are cascaded at the secondary side of the transformers, letting out one phase of high-voltage AC output. The circuit is consisted of a step-down industry frequency transformer at the network side, three-phase to single-phase MC arrays, a step-up high frequency transformer at the load side and filter components. The simulation result based on MATLAB/SIMULINK shows that the proposed multi-stage Series-connection high voltage frequency converter is feasible and low-cost.

The use of static frequency converters, which have a high switching frequency, generates voltage pulses with a high rate of change over time. In combination with cable and motor impedance, this generates repetitive overvoltage at the motor terminals, influencing the occurrence of partial discharges between conductors, causing degradation of the insulation of electric motors. Understanding the effects resulting from the frequency converter–electric motor interaction is essential for developing and implementing insulation systems with characteristics that support the most diverse applications, have an operating life under economically viable conditions, and promote energy efficiency. With this objective, a search was carried out in three recognized databases. Duplicate articles were eliminated, resulting in 1069 articles, which were systematically categorized and reviewed, resulting in 481 articles discussing the causes of degradation in the insulation of electric motors powered by frequency converters. A bibliographic portfolio was built and evaluated, with 230 articles that present results on the factors that can be used in estimating the life span of electric motor insulation. In this structure, the historical evolution of the collected information, the authors who conducted the most research on the theme, and the relevance of the knowledge presented in the works were considered.

В статье выполнен анализ способов компенсации высших гармоник в судовой сети единой электроэнергетической системы (ЕЭЭС), в составе которой, основным потребителей электроэнергии является система электродвижения (СЭД). Рассмотрены три схемы компенсации высших гармоник, создаваемых неуправляемыми выпрямителями, входящими в состав преобразователей частоты (ПЧ). Проведено компьютерное моделирование фрагмента структуры ЕЭЭС, запатентованной фирмой Siemens , схемы 18-пульсного выпрямителя, а также схемы с двумя 12-пульсными выпрямителями. Результаты моделирования показали, что в структуре ЕЭЭС фирмы Siemens , пропульсивный трансформатор обеспечивает компенсацию только части высших гармоник, из-за чего, искажения формы напряжения в судовой сети могут быть значительными. Схема, содержащая два 12-пульсных выпрямителя, а также трехфазный трансформатор с четырьмя трехфазными обмотками, имеющими сдвиг фаз на 15 электрических градусов, показала наилучшие показатели по качеству тока, обеспечивая эффективную компенсацию 5, 7, 11, 13 гармонических составляющих тока. Предложенная схема с двумя 12-пульсными выпрямителями позволяет в составе ПЧ применить трехуровневые автономные инверторы напряжения, характеризующиеся высоким качеством тока в обмотках гребного электродвигателя.The article analyzes the methods for compensating for higher harmonics in the ship network of the unified electric power system (UEPS), in which the main electric power consumers are electric propulsion systems (EPS). Three compensation schemes for higher harmonics created by uncontrolled rectifiers that are part of frequency converters are considered. Computer simulation of a fragment of the UEPS structure patented by Siemens, an 18-pulse rectifier circuit, and also circuits with two 12-pulse rectifiers were carried out. The simulation results showed that in the Siemens UEPS structure, a propulsive transformer provides compensation for only a part of the higher harmonics, due to which, voltage waveform distortions in the ship network can be significant. The circuit, containing two 12-pulse rectifiers, as well as a three-phase transformer with four three-phase windings having a phase shift of 15 electrical degrees, showed the best current quality indicators, providing effective compensation for 5, 7, 11, 13 harmonic components of the current. The proposed circuit with two 12-pulse rectifiers allows the use of three-level autonomous voltage inverters, which are characterized by high quality current in the windings of the propeller motor, as part of the frequency converter.

Yarn-shaped supercapacitors (YSSCs) based on aqueous electrolyte exhibit relatively low voltage output due to the low decomposition voltage of water (~1.23 V). Applying organic-based electrolyte or connecting YSSCs in series...
