Design of Low-Ripple and Fast-Response DC Filters in DC Distribution Networks
The design and parameter selection of low-ripple and fast-response direct current (DC) filters are discussed in this study with the aim of alleviating the influence of a DC-side low-frequency voltage pulsation on a sensitive load in a DC distribution network. A method for determining the DC filter parameters by using a mofatching most flat response algorithm is presented. The voltage transfer function of the DC-side filter in the DC distribution network is deduced to analyze its voltage transfer characteristics. The resonance peak value of the filter network is an important factor affecting the transfer speed of a filter. A pole-circle-based parameter optimization method is proposed to move the poles of the filter transfer function down and to the left of pole plane for finding the appropriate capacitance, inductance, and damping parameters. This approach effectively restricts the resonance peak value, accelerates the transfer speed, and maintains steady filtering results. Simulation and test results verify that the filter has low resonance value, rapid convergence ability, and an excellent filtering effect.
